I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! To start the New Year off right, I want to give away 2 free sessions! So why not have a contest?
Prizes/Rules:
The first 15 e-mails I received have been entered into my contest…
The winner with the most votes will receive a FREE session + a CD of all the proofs with a copyright release!
The second runner up will receive a FREE mini session + an 8×10!
Each applicant e-mailed me the reason why they think they should win the photo shoot. It could be for any reason at all! They also had to e-mail me a photo. That’s it, it was super easy!
———————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————–
I think that every applicant that entered has a great reason!! I am so glad that the people will be voting and not me… I wouldn’t know who to vote for!
SO here are all of the applicants with their reason and photo. The voting will start tomorrow, Monday, December 28th at 9 a.m. and will end Thursday, December 31st at 5 p.m.! A poll will be posted! I will then announce the winner sometime on New Years Day!
Have fun!
I have decided to run a contest! There will be 2 winners.
The winner with the MOST votes will receive a free session + a CD of all the proofs with a copyright release. The second runner up will receive a free mini session + an 8×10.
Entries may be for individuals (H.S. Seniors, newborns, babies, adults, bridals – does not include weddings!) or can also be for groups up to 5 (families, maternity, engagements).
Here’s the deal…
1. Email me why you think you deserve this photoshoot. It can be any reason. If money is tight, you’ve had a rough year, you haven’t had your family photo taken in forever, or just because you’re awesome. Just tell me why in 75 words or less!
Email: christen@photographybychristen.com
2. Attach in your e-mail 1 photo of you or the person(s) you wish to have in your photograph. Can NOT be a professional photograph due to copyright reasons. Must be one you have taken.
I will ONLY be accepting 15 entries now until Wednesday, December 23rd. The FIRST 15 e-mails I receive will be entered into the contest. I will then post your reason why you want this photoshoot along with the picture you have sent on my blog for everyone to see. Voting will take place on my blog and start sometime the following week after receiving your emails. This will be announced later.
Once the voting begins, spread the word – get your parents, co-workers, friends, family, and neighbors to vote! Winner of the contest will be determined by the number of votes received.
Be sure to join my facebook page for updates on the contest.

I thought I’d post some pictures of my little family. Our little baby is 8 1/2 months old! I can’t believe how fast he is growing… it seems like just yesterday we were bringing him home from the hospital! He is such a sweetie! He loves to play with mommy & daddy and his toys. All you need is a tv nearby if he gets fussy. He loves watching Veggietales, they are his favorite! He isn’t quite crawling all the way yet… but he gets around by doing the “army crawl”! He loves to jabber and can say mommy and daddy when he wants. He is our little blessing from above. We thank God for him every single day. We love you Easton!!!
