Okay Peeps...THIS IS IT!!!

And the winner is......YES folks, we are announcing the winner already. Unfortunately, I only received 3 entries for this contest and one of them was my Mother-In-Law submitting photos of my own children. And as sad as that is for a while I thought she was actually going to win (YIKES!). It's pretty sad when you can only give a free session and prints away to your own children and even they don't want them:)

But thankfully, I received those last two votes. And I've decided to give both entries a complimentary session and $50 print credit. So congrats to the 2 lucky winners. I will be contacting you soon to schedule your June session.

Here are the winner's photos:

Be sure to come back and visit the blog to see the photos from these sessions!!!

CONTEST - Submit your best snapshot

So....it's finally Spring (rain and all) but I'll take that as long as it comes w/warmer weather.

In light of this awesome weather, I thought it would be great to run a contest through the month of May (white it's still wet out) and offer the winner a complimentary session during the beautiful (and dry) month of June.

The Details -
The contest will be running the entire month of May. Here's the schedule:

May 1-15 Submit a photo of your child
May 16-31 Let the voting begin

The Rules -
All you need to do is upload a photo that was taken of your child within a year and email it to me at (sarah@sarahmansell.com). You have 15 days to submit a photo. On May 16th, all photos submitted will be uploaded to my blog and be ready for votes. Don't worry - photos will have a large obnoxious watermark for protection. In your email, please give the name of the child being submitted along with your complete name and relationship to the child.

Anyone can enter including past, present and future clients.

On May 16th the voting will begin. Simply spread the word to family, friends and co-workers that you have submitted your child's photo in a contest for a chance to win a complimentary photo session and print credit. All they need to do is send me an email (sarah@sarahmansell.com) with the name of the child in the subject line. That's it. It's that easy!

The Winner
The child with the most votes

The Prize
The winner will receive a complimentary session and a $50 print credit.

Please note: For those of you with more than one child (like most of us out there) you may submit a photo of each of your children, however, there will not be separate sessions for each of your children - just one for all of them. And if you're voting for multiple siblings, please have the subject line in your email reference all names. Whether the vote is for one child or three, it only counts as one vote.

If this contest is successful, i.e., plenty of participation, I'll be running another one at the end of summer for a complimentary outdoor family session in the fall.

So.....Let's see those photos!!!
