I know that it’s hard to plan your wedding – and in this economy, it’s even harder to plan a wedding on a budget. So, for the first time, I am offering Wedding Photography to ONE lucky couple – completely FREE!

That’s right – you’ll get:
*8 hours of photography on your wedding day
*Online password protected gallery for viewing and ordering
*Pre-Wedding walk-through at wedding and reception sites
*CD of images
*FREE 2nd Photographer!

HOW will you win this package? Easy….First, email a short note and a picture that you think BEST EXPRESSES your ‘Couple Personality’ to me and I will post it here on this blog! Next, book and pay for a Custom Engagement Portrait Session (Paypal is preferred). Couples will be voted on by visitors to the site — want your mom to vote for you? Give her a link! Have 86 cousins around the world and they want to vote? Send them here! The more votes you get, the better! (Of course!)

For $99, you have a chance to win a professional photography package for your wedding…all you have to do is email a picture of the two of you to Jill@PortraitsbyJ.org along with a brief note that tells us a little about yourselves (please include your wedding date/place) and pay for your Engagement Session within 3 days….then get your friends, family, and anyone you know to VOTE for you!

The lucky couple with the most votes will win their wedding photography for FREE!

One last thing, if at least 25 couples enter my little contest, I’ll upgrade the contest prize to my top tier wedding package (a $4595 value), which includes everything above PLUS:

This little brother and sister were absolutely adorable!

A Sweet Young Lady…

I had a great time working with this family! We did the session at Grandma and Grandpa’s house – with a few diaper and food breaks for this tiny girl, things were very smooth!

Daddy’s Little Man!

This little guy had a football and everything! I enjoyed meeting him and his family – he’s a very lucky guy!

Such a Little One!

This little guy was an absolute joy to take pictures of! Mom had tried so hard to get him to sleep for our session, but he was determined to be awake for the whole thing!

Little Peanut

This sweet baby was 12 days old when I did his pictures! Grandma had just finished feeding him when I got there, changed his diaper…and off to the Land of Zzzzz’s!

Country Boys….

Jill — Wed, 27 Jan 2010 01:35:34 +0000

These two little guys were a LOT of fun a week or so ago! The oldest and I talked about dragons and boots and dragons some more…and did I mention dragons? LOL! He was cute, and I really liked the different expressions I got on his face – and he has a LOT of expression! Little brother was adorable, too – blowin’ raspberries and making noises….the hardest part was keeping him in one place long enough to get the shot! Too bad he wasn’t into his big brother that day – any time I tried to put them together he cried like crazy, so we gave that up! Anyway, it was fun, and mom was happy with the pictures we got – enjoy!

A Really Fun Family!

I met this family through our local Down syndrome society one afternoon when we were taking promo pictures for some of our new materials. Their youngest son’s picture (which I took!) ended up being on the front of our new parent packet – he is SO cute! Anyway, I was fortunate enough to take their family pictures this fall and wanted to share a few with you!
