My Favorites: Second Annual Blog Contest

It's time for this year's blog contest! Because I slowed down a bit this year to spend time with my new favorite photography subject, I was able to fit all of my 2009 families into this contest! (Okay, maybe 18 entries is a bit much, but all of these pictures were just too memorable to me to be left out!)

Please vote for your favorite (only one vote per person). The owner of the picture to receive the most votes will win a beautiful 4x6 album with my 20 favorite images from your session (or sessions, if applicable). If you already have an album, your kids probably have a Grandma or an Aunt who would like one, too!)

The first and second (and maybe third and fourth) runners up with receive special surprises, too, so start spreading the word!

After you vote, leave a comment on my blog to let me know what you like about the picture you voted for. One lucky commenter will receive a free mini session (20 minute session with 10 images on CD, to take place in Maywood, NJ in January, 2010)!!!

Good Luck!

Two Girls and a Boy

I met this wonderful family today, with two beautiful, sweet girls and a cute, happy baby boy. When we started pictures and I asked the girls to stand together, one asked, "Should we hug?" So sweet, and I LOVE hugs in pictures!

I told them I have a baby boy about their brother's age and the girls asked if I also have older kids, like them, and if some day I would like to have two girls and a boy. Sounds good to me!
