IT’S CONTEST TIME!!!!
(I have to give credit to www.mphotoforyou.net for this inspiring idea. One of my guilty pleasures is scouring other photography blogs/websites for ideas and inspiration. When I found this contest on mphotos blog it made me also want to “give back.” So thank you thank you mphoto!)
After having a banner year last year I wanted to hold a contest to “Give Back” and “Pay it Forward” if you will. I feel so blessed to have my family & friends and clients (who have become friends) support and am amazed that I get to utilize a talent that I love. So for this contest one lucky (and certainly deserving) person/family will receive a FREE mini-session.
Here are the details:
· The winner will be nominated and picked by all of you!
· Starting now I will accept nominations of deserving people and/or families (the photosession could be family, baby, senior, headshot, engagement or anything fun we could do in a mini-session). Email me why you think they deserve, need or would be happy to get this photosession. And if you have a current photo of them attach that as well. The best place to send your nomination is my email: sharliezphotography@gmail.com . You may also submit nominations on my “contact” form on Facebook or my “contact” page on my website. All nominations must be received no later than February 1st.
· I will go through all the nominations and pick my top 4.
· I will then post on my blog and Facebook the top 4 nominations for your vote (names of nominees will not be given out). In order to vote you must become a fan on Facebook or follow my blog. You may get one additional vote if you share the contest link on your Facebook wall then make a comment on FB that you did so.
· The winner will be announced on February 14th (doesn’t that sound LOVEly!), and I will get a gift certificate* to them or whomever nominated them shortly after (wouldn't you love to be the one to hand over the gift of photography to someone special?!).
MAKE SURE YOU READ THIS:
The winner must be able to redeem the gift certificate in the following places during the following times to be nominated.
1. Greater Sacramento Area- must be used by June 2012
2. Los Angles Area- must be used over Memorial Day Weekend 2012
3. Salt Lake City Area- must be used the week of the 4th of July 2012
The mini-session will be taken in an outdoor/natural light setting in the style of Sharlie Z Photography. Get familiar with my style by clicking on my website, blog and Facebook page.
Take time to think about who you think deserves the nomination. Only one nomination per person will be accepted. You may nominate friends, family, coworkers, yourself/your family etc. Share love and post this link to those who might have someone they want to nominate too.
Thank you again and good luck!
