Oh wow, it’s only been two hours and the responses I’m getting are just great!  It’s so much fun to read all of them.  Keep them coming and tell your friends!

I forgot to include VERY IMPORTANT information:  the deadline to submit your entry is Friday, January 12, 2007!

The answer to the BONUS QUESTION is:  we’re celebrating at our house today because my little Rachel turns TWO today!  Congratulations to Laurie Vega for winning the $100 Freckle Face gift certificates!  A very close second and third go to Matt Sauer and Shelli Ficks, who will each receive a little something as well!

Hello!  I hope that everyone is enjoying this holiday season and is looking forward to a fantastic new year.

To celebrate the launch of my new photoblog, I’m holding a contest!  Winners of this contest will win two (!) portrait gift certificates in the amount of $300 each.  One is to keep and one is to give to a friend who has never been photographed by me before.

The contest is simple:  tell me who you’d like to give the second gift certificate to and why.   Be creative, be funny, be sincere.    There will be lots of runner up prizes!

THERE WILL BE A BONUS GIFT ($100 gift certificate to Freckle Face!!) for the first person who can accurately guess why today is a day to celebrate at our house. J

Boring but necessary details:

• Enter by sending an email with the subject “Holiday Contest!” with your reason for giving inside the body of the email.
• Anyone can enter (current clients or new clients!), so tell your friends!
• Gift certificates must be redeemed by May 30, 2007. 
• Winner will be notified via email and announced on my blog on Monday, January 15, 2007.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions! 

Tis the season for lots of gorgeous expecting mothers!  I’ve had the opportunity to do a lot of maternity photography lately and I’m loving it!

and we can’t leave the puppy out of the picture

I haven’t yet had a chance to put my maternity galleries online, so if you’re interested in scheduling a maternity session and would like to see more examples, email me and we can chat!

I love, love, love when I get the chance to photograph a toddler whom I photographed as a baby.  It’s fun to see how they’ve grown and changed and the sessions are always lots of fun as we catch up on what’s new and exciting in our lives. 

Yesterday’s session was old and new – I’ve photographed this spunky toddler before, but his girly girl cousins were fresh faces for me.  I do hope that I’ll have the chance to photograph all three of them again soon!

Welcome to my New Year’s resolution!  Instead of the seasonal newsletters I’ve sent in the past, I’ll be updating this weblog more frequently to keep clients and friends up to date on what’s happening at Christine Plamann Photography.  Stay tuned for contests, announcements, specials and more.

If I haven’t already spoken with you, please let me wish you a new year full of peace, laughter and fabulous photographs.
