So, here's the deal! Everyone who leaves a comment saying hi to me ON THIS ENTRY from now through Friday at 9pm central time will be entered into a drawing to receive a FREE gift certificate! The value is $150 which is the cost of a Standard Session including the photo CD with copyright release! I know what you're thinking! YIPPEE! Right? I thought so.
This gift certificate can be given away as a gift to another person or you can use it for yourself! The choice is yours! You can even use this certificate towards the purchase of a larger session if you so choose.
Now, all that being said, this contest is really only going to appeal to all my local folks. I hate that! I promise to do something really cool for my out-of-town readers very soon. However, if you live out of town and think you might be willing to come for a visit - feel free to enter in the drawing! (or if you want to pay my travel fees - [smile...snicker] - I love to travel)
Remember, comments on this entry only will count!!!
Hi Shannon!
We are still getting great compliments on last summer's photo session! Can't wait to see you again!

Ok--I have to enter! I've been a blog stalker for awhile and although I've never met you--I love love love your pictures. I'm a little bit of photographer myself--very little--however I'm hardly ever in the shots. I know you can relate Shannon--you've helped me w/ some information about lens and I even bought one you recommended. So here's my offical entry! Again, I just love your work!

Hi Shannon. I thought I would use this to give you a little update on Zena and how she is doing. She is absolutely great, and I have to say a bit spoiled. (She is a bit on the chubby side, but her vet isn't concerned so neither are we!)
She is an inside dog pretty much 24/7, only goes out to use the restroom, and if it's raining she looks at me like, "You can't POSSIBLY expect me to go out in THAT?!?!?!" She loves to go for walks with Reece and me. I have no idea how to leash train a dog so we tend to struggle with who is going to lead whom. But we all still enjoy it. She loves being outside, but only as long as we are with her. She doesn't really like it when we leave her in the house and she can hear us outside. (Like when I am mowing the lawn.) Basically she just wants to be wherever we are!
Just thought you might like to hear that she is happy and healthy and well-loved.

Hey! The contest is a great idea. I love to visit your blog and I still get compliments on our engagment and reception pics :)

Hey Shannon! O.K. I'm always up for a giveaway and since I love your work it's a perfect fit. I just got a compliment yesterday on our family pic you took and I have to tell them who did it. The kids change so fast I think I'm about ready for another one. Also, Sophie is doing well and is a very playful companion for Molly. Scot's got her doing lots of tricks and he's always saying what a pretty dog she is. Thanks for letting us add her to our family. Hope to talk to you soon and get those boys playing together.

Shannon! Here's my entry. I also want to order some of the senior announcements with Tyler's pics. You choose the pics and I'll send the info to you. When you come the 23rd for graduation, both the boys will have their girlfriends there too.
Thanks!
