It was so great to catch up with this family again - it had been too long. Well not THAT long but when kiddos are so little they seem to grow up and change that much faster. These twin sisters are seriously adorable and they are super lucky to have such a cool fun older brother. Great seeing you guys again - thanks!
Just a fun little bit of news to share this morning. I entered a couple of my favorite images into the photography contest at the Erie County Fair this year. My portrait entry received “best of” and was in consideration for the tri-color ribbon - yay! My pictorial entry received an honorable mention. It made trekking down to the fair 8.5 months pregnant with 4 kids and a husband in tow totally worth it.
Early November sessions are currently booking and October is extremely limited with just one weekend session left - please book now!
Here are a couple of iphone pictures from last night at the fair. . . .
“Best Of” - Portrait
Honorable Mention - Pictorial
The winner of the Fan Friday contest for this week is #7 - Sarah Maglich!
Congrats Sarah - you will receive a 12×12 4 image collage at your next session!
Its Fan Friday again! Up for grabs this week is a complimentary 12×12 4 Image Collage with the purchase of your session fee ($160 value). All you have to do is leave a comment below and say why you would love a session with SH Portraits, would love a collage, or have loved working with SH Portraits in the past. Anything really! I’ll use a random number generator to determine the winner. And. . .because I totally forgot to post a Fan Friday last weekend - I will leave this one open to comments through 11:59pm TOMORROW and announce the winner on Sunday. So be sure to share the contest with your friends and family too!
I have some fun exciting news and things in the works that I will be able to share in the next few weeks too. I am just bursting to tell everyone but have to wait - so be sure to keep an eye out.
For now - here is an example of what the collage would look like and it is mounted on my standard styrene to protect it. Just frame and hang!
Drum roll please. . .
The winner of the first Fan Friday contest is Kristen K. Congrats! Please send me an email to samara@shportraits.com to redeem your prize!
Don’t forget Fan Fridays will continue now and each Friday for the next 3 weeks so enter again everyone and tell your friends too. The prizes will be different each week and one week it will be huge (promise!) !!
Its Fan Friday! Today i will be giving away a gift certificate woth $50 that you can use or give to a friend! Just comment on this blog post saying why you would like a session with SH Portraits. Yup - it really is THAT easy! Tomorrow I will use a random number generator to choose the winner.
Of course I have to include a picture with the blog post so I am posting one of my kiddos, from two years ago (well almost). Hard to believe he was this tiny - I love his wrinkly little feet here.
I love my clients, I love my fans and I love photographing everyone! My schedule is INSANE the next few weeks before I take some time off to have a baby - but please do call anyway. I am pretty much working everyday of the week to get everyone in!
Since I love you all SO much - starting next Friday and every Friday through August 20th I am going to have “Fan Fridays” here on the blog.
Here’s the deal. I will post an image on those days from the past, of my kids, of your kids, of anything. Tell me why you love the image and why you would love a gift certificate with SH Portraits. I’ll then use a number generator to determine a winner the following day. The gift certificate amounts will change each week from $50 up to an entire session fee. So you will always want to check in and post each week.
It’s gonna be fun folks!
