Giveaway Number 4!/ Gainesville Photographer

So… this is going to be a little bit different of a contest AND a giveaway.  In a few weeks we will be having our first photo contest from previous sessions, and I would LOVE my readers to let me know some of their favorite images that Sweet Serendipity has captured over the last several months.  So, here is where YOU come in.  I invite you to look back through the blog (I imported as many old JLS Photography posts over here as space would allow!) and pick your favorite image from a session in 2009.  You can tell me the post title, and then a brief description of the post.  I am going to use these nominated pics for Sweet Serendipity’s first photo contest while will take place October 1st – 5th.  The winning image will be presented to the client as a beautiful mounted 11 x 14 print. The runner up will receive an 8 x 10 as well.

The only catch- you CANNOT nominate your own photo. And one nomination per person, please. Since Sweet Serendipity’s tagline is “Capturing Life’s Unexpected Moments”, the contest is entitled “Life’s Unexpected Moments.”

Go ahead and post your nomination here… and the most nominated photos will be entered into the contest on 10/1.

And of course…. you want to know what the  prize is! I am going to give away two prizes for this contest. If you are a NEW client, you will be registered to win a complimentary session.  If you are an EXISTING client, you will be registered to win a proof set, one of the new products that Sweet Serendipity will be offering.  A proof set is a boxed set of 4 x 6 images from your session.  Choose your favorite 50 images (or duplicates of a lesser number of images) and you will receive them in a fabulous metal tin. This is perfect for holiday gift giving.  The proof set can be from a previous session or one that you schedule in the future.

To summarize- pick your favorite image, tell me the blog entry title and a brief description. There will be 2 winners – one NEW client will win a complimentary session. One EXISTING client will win a complimentary boxed proof set. Both prizes are a $100 value!

Can’t wait to see what your choices are! The winners will be announced here on Wednesday night!

great site… as a former professional photographer, I would rate your pictures as great… especially liked the action photo “jump” and the photos of expecting moms… you have captured the essence of their maternity… I would like to see the fathers included in some way in these shots… Best of luck (luck is where opportunity meets preparedness)

Eric Davis - September 23, 2009 - 8:22 am

I’m a little biased, being her uncle, but I think Madelyn’s photo in the hat with the pink bow in her Gummy Grins Galore session should win. But all of this photographer’s photos are amazing!

Rebecca - September 23, 2009 - 7:05 am

I love the photo of Maddie with the brown hat and pink bow from “Gummy Grins Galore”. How sweet :)

Jacque - September 23, 2009 - 6:17 am

I absolutely love the ‘Hard to believe she’s one’ with Ms. Z’s big blue eyes!! This picture is fantastic and Ms. Z is adorable!!!

Mary Huszcza - September 23, 2009 - 4:40 am

I love the pic of Baby A from the “Brand New” post on July 25th. The pic where she’s leaning on her hand and her sweet little face is smooshed sideways. Seems to fit the “Unexpected Moments” theme.

Mary Huszcza - September 23, 2009 - 4:33 am

Oops….just read the “can’t nominate your own photo” line….

Lisa Griffiths - September 22, 2009 - 7:32 pm

My vote goes to Hard to Believe She is 1. The sunset pic is my favorite. Zofi is a doll.

John - September 22, 2009 - 7:11 pm

Sorry to not be clear- Madelyn Thomas in the gummy grins gets my vote. i like the one with the beanie.

Christie Cosby - September 22, 2009 - 5:56 pm

My favorite is “hard to believe she is one” the fouth picture. Stunning!

Mary Huszcza - September 22, 2009 - 5:30 pm

Yes, I’m a bit prejudiced. I vote for “Hard to believe she’s one” I LOVE the 4th pic….those big beautiful blue eyes.

Linda Herrmann - September 22, 2009 - 5:03 pm

“Hard to believe she’s 1″ a vote for Zofi pic#4

Madelyn newborn session get’s my vote. Although they are all very pretty. Except the one’s with Matt’s mug in them.

Debra - September 22, 2009 - 2:34 pm

My favorite is “Hard to beleive she’s one” picture #4!! I love the eyes and how you captured the inquisitive nature of a one year old!!

Allison - September 22, 2009 - 1:52 pm

I love the three shots that just show the outline of Tiffany and Matt and her belly. It is so sweet and cute! I had no idea people took ‘anxiously awaiting’ pictures and I am now going to have to do the same. The picture of him kissing her belly is so sweet!

Kimberly - September 22, 2009 - 1:49 pm

My favorite is one of Madalyn at Kanapaha touching a butterfly. What an amazing shot and the time was perfect! It was one of those unexpected moments and you captured it just right. The photograph looks so natural and is a beatutiful moment…Madalyn being curious and a kid.

Audrey Summers - September 22, 2009 - 1:29 pm

Awe, Tif! So adorable… I love them all but my favorite is the expecting picture with you and Matt sitting next to the fence. It’s so beautiful and you look stunning.

Audrey

Ting - September 22, 2009 - 1:21 pm

My favorite is in “Hard to believe she’s one” where the daddy is holding the baby girl in the air. It’s so sweet and you can feel the love and joy.

Julie Troxler - September 22, 2009 - 12:26 pm

I am voting for “Hard to believe she’s 1.”Picture number 4.
What a great picture.

Lore Davis - September 22, 2009 - 10:44 am

I like the picture of Madelyn Thomas in her three month session (gummy grins blog) where she has the beanie on her head! I think it captured Maddie’s personality perfectly.

Megan - September 22, 2009 - 9:11 am

Although little Madelyn looks adorable in all her pictures, my favorite of the Thomas family is actually the one of Tiffany in Anxiously Awaiting (http://blog.sweetserendipityphotography.com/?p=445) in the white dress and green necklace leaning against a tree. What woman wouldn’t want to remember looking that beautiful while they’re pregnant?!

Renee Lojewski - September 22, 2009 - 9:05 am

my favorite of Madelyn is from the Gummy Grins Galore shoot. The picture with the brown and pink hat just melts my heart!!!

Meghan Martin - September 22, 2009 - 8:59 am

I adore the picture of Manjari looking down at her ring, right after she opened Madhava’s proposal fortune cookie. It’s like it took her breath away. The whole set of photos in “She Said Yes!” are beautiful.

Jen - September 22, 2009 - 7:15 am

The picture with Madelyn in her fish dress is great from http://blog.sweetserendipityphotography.com/?p=1103.

John - September 22, 2009 - 7:07 am

Madalyn gets my vote

Sharon Feacher - September 22, 2009 - 6:56 am

HARD TO BELIEVE SHE’S 1′ section

I would like to vote for Zofi picture #4 from the hard to believe she’s 1 section. What a beautiful baby.

amanda jenkins - September 22, 2009 - 6:43 am

My favorite photo is of Zofia Huszcza, the 4th one under “I cant believe she is 1″ album. Beautiful blue eyes and precious face! This one should totally win!

Laura - September 22, 2009 - 6:30 am

My favorite photo is from “Gummy Grins Galore/Gainesville Baby Photographer.” Madelyn at 3 months wearing that adorable hat with the pink bow. I love that it is close up and shows her beautiful eyes.
http://blog.sweetserendipityphotography.com/?p=1103

Piotr Huszcza - September 22, 2009 - 6:00 am

“Hard to believe she’s 1″ and 4th picture down is my pick! Truly a heart-breaker to be OR an angel in the making.

Kimberly - September 21, 2009 - 9:04 pm

I love the picture of Shannon right before she walked down the aisle. It was really an ‘unexpected moment’ the way you caught her inhaling right before. As if she was trying to calm her nerves, you really captured the essence of that moment.

Julie Peine - September 21, 2009 - 7:15 pm

I know Taylor so I’m probably biased, but I loved the first picture from Taylor Class of 2010 where’s she’s in the field of wildflowers and jumping about four feet off the ground. Just so much joy in that photo!

Alison - September 21, 2009 - 6:58 pm

My favorite is http://blog.sweetserendipityphotography.com/?p=306 with Madalyn being kissed by the dog. So unexpected and so precious. (And you should definitely bring this to Pit Bull Day as a sample picture!)
