Surprise- a give away!

If you live in the Houston area or would willingly make a trip to the Houston area, have I got a deal for you! I got a great gift certificate in the mail that I thought I could pass on. It's a free session and free 8x10 photo with a fantastic photographer, Christie. This gift is valued at $85! To see Christie's work, go to http://www.christiemcgrathphotography.com/ She has so many great ideas, tons of great props and even fancy tutus!


Why am I not using it you ask? Well, I've been using Christie as a photographer since she started about 5 years ago. See that picture above, that was a playdate day, run upstairs (when her studio was still at home), take a picture of Beth playing with a bowl of water, photoshop the fish. Isn't that stinking cool?! So, I don't mind passing this on to someone new. Even if you don't win, I encourage you to try her out (tell her I sent you). You'll be so thrilled you did!

How can you win? Leave a seperate comment for each entry.
1. Leave a comment with your name
Ex) Jane Doe
2. Go to Christie's website, find your favorite picture then leave a comment telling me about it.
Ex) Jane Doe- the baby that looks like it's hanging in the net
3. Leave a comment telling me what/who you would have photograhed if you win.
Ex) Jane Doe- I want to have sexy pics taken as a gift to my hubby (seriously, she can do this)
4. Use your blog or facebook status to tell other people about this contest! Then, come back to let me know you did.
Ex) Jane Doe- I blogged it on itsmyblog.com

I will randomly pick a winner on Friday, May 1. If you win, I'll contact you for mailing info and get the certificate in the mail on Saturday.
Good luck!

Pick me! Pick me! Oh wait. I don't live in Houston. And I don't have kids. Dang it. How about a shoe giveaway?

Huh? I'm too tired to do all that but I will post it on my blog. Do I know this chic? Did we go to school together? We've used another photographer out in the Kemah shops before but not her. I'll have to give her a try. I know you've recommended her before. She's got some cute shots. I like the outside shots. I wonder if she does beach photos. Hmmm...

Bryan Mason - I would put the coupon in a box with other coupons and find it in a year or two and think "Hmm...maybe we should have used that coupon"

Also, I went and looked at her site....I love the little-ball-o-babies. :) But I think my favorite is the 5 kids of all ages holding hands. Love it!

step one....name...yaya
ok i can do this one step at a time.
It doesnt get any better than this as our music director Chuck Skinner would say....so popi and yaya should have pictures taken to share with others before we "contract" any more wrinkles. Contract...is that what happens when you get the Swine Flu virus...?? Like contracting a disease..you contract WRINKLES...omg

yaya said...

step two....christie's website...favorite picture...family..grandparents and grandkids and parents hand in hand walking down a path...love it....
(hint hint)
