Wedding Photography Giveaway!

I read other blogs a LOT more than I post on my own. I came across this blog contest from the message board I frequent (JM), and in order to get entries, I'm posting about the giveaway here!

I found a fabulous woman who does some excellent photography. She just recently re-vamped her site, and is setting out on a quest to explore her world and take more pictures outside of the box.

She's giving away a photography package for one lucky couple. Here's the rules:

1. The engaged couple must be nominated by someone other than themselves (can be anyone who knows them) and the nominating letter must explain why the couple deserves a free Rawsii Wedding package and include a photo of the couple. The more personality expressed, the better! Stories will be confirmed prior to announcing finalists. Nominations should be emailed ONLY. Send to weddingstories@rawsii.com . Winners will be required to sign the standard Wedding Day Agreement and Photograph and Publicity Consent and Release Form with Rawsii. All stories and images submitted become the property of Rawsii and will not be returned.
2. The couple’s wedding must take place between the dates of 1/1/10 and 12/31/10 in the Continental U.S. (this excludes Alaska and Hawaii). Void where prohibited.
3. All nominations must be received by 11:59pm EST on January 31, 2009. Rawsii reserves the right to select finalists without disclosing reasons or criteria. Finalists will be confirmed no later than March 30, 2009. Three finalists will then be presented on the Rawsii blog for public voting on April 1, 2009. Public vote will be final. In case of a tie, Rawsii reserves the right to cast the final vote.
4. The winner will receive the Smashing Fabulous Wedding Package, valued at $4200, which includes full day coverage, a 30-page (60-side) Storybook Album, and online proofing. In addition, the winner will receive the High Res images on DVD, and a 16x20 Gallery Wrap (an additional value of $1000.) All travel and lodging expenses will be covered by Rawsii. Winners will be required to sign standard Wedding Day agreement with Rawsii, minus any clauses pertaining to an exchange of monies.
5. To be eligible, the couple may not be under any contract or agreement for wedding photography with Impressions Studio or Rawsii or any other wedding photographer of any kind as of the date of entry. Cancellation of an existing contract with Impressions Studio or Rawsii will render a couple ineligible for the contest.
6. Another friendly message from my awesome lawyer, Matt: Rawsii reserves the right to change the contest or contest rules at any time without notice. No purchase necessary to win. Void where prohibited. (thanks Matt!)



If you're interested, shoot her an email, or post a comment on my blog! Good luck and happy wedding planning!!!

Wow...

It has been what seems like ages since I've posted on here, huh?

Um...at lot has happened since the end of May!

Parker was born on May 29th, 2008 at 11:08 pm. She will be 5 months old at the end of this month!

I went back to work, then decided to stay home. I love being at home with P everyday, though I do miss work. We go back and visit often.

I got braces, and I've started to finally lose some weight. Parker and I go for daily walks, and then I work out on the Wii Fit in the evenings.

That's about it in a nutshell. I'll come back and post something a bit more meaningful later, when I have two free hands! ;)
