It’s that time of year! Winter is coming (to half the world anyway!!), we’re going into hibernation mode, and I’m feeling like giving something away to brighten someone’s day!

One lucky winner will receive a FREE 16″x20″ CANVAS, ready to hang on your wall, of either a photographic image submitted by the winner* or from a past or future h2o photography session. A $225 value!

HOW TO ENTER:
The winner will be chosen randomly from a pool of entries, and you can earn one entry for each of the following:
1) Like h2ophotography’s page on Facebook, and leave a comment on the Facebook ‘GIVEAWAY’ post telling me so. (If you already like h2o, just leave a comment.)
2) Follow h2ophotography on Twitter, and tweet about it with a ‘#h2ophotography’ tag. (If you already follow h2o, just tweet it!)
3) Sign up for h2o photography’s newsletter and comment on this blog post telling me you’ve done so. (If you are already subscribed, just comment.)
4) Refer a friend to do any or each of the above and have them include your name in the comment or tweet, and you’ll each earn an entry.
5) BONUS! FOR 3 ENTRIES: Fill in a 2-minute, 6 question survey: For those who have had a h2o photo session: Past customer survey, or for those who have never had a h2o photo session: Never been a customer survey

Thanks “iheartfaces” for selecting me as a winner in the “Amy & Angie’s Pick” category this week! I’m honoured. The theme was ‘anything but a face’. My entry was this one.
This weekly challenge only allows one entry per photographer, but here are a few other photos I would have liked to enter!

Today’s blog entry does double duty!! First, it’s a special, super-sneak peek from Saturday’s session with our good friends Jeff and Kate and their extended family, in honour of Kate’s birthday today. Happy Birthday Kate! Lots more to come from this session…

Second, it’s my entry into this week’s ‘i heart faces’ photographer’s community weekly challenge. This week’s theme is “Play”. Check out the site at www.iheartfaces.com.
