for the 2nd annual Fresh Faces Contest?

well its HERE!

How does it work?
If you have a child between the ages of 4 to 10 years old, you can enter!
Submit a recent (non-professional) photo to info@deannahallphotography.com.

Entries close April 15th, 2008 12PM MST

Incase you are wondering (thank you for asking Carla ) why I have limited it to the ages of 4 – 10, it is because I feel that my portfolio is a little bit lacking in children in this age range. I have plenty of babies, and toddlers and I need to expand more with the older children!

All entries must include the child’s full name, date of birth, and a valid contact email of parent or legal guardian. (No names will be publicly announced, except for the winner, and that will be only first name only.)
Twins and multiples may be entered together.
All submitted photos must be recent (within 4 weeks of submission).
Once entries close, a panel of professional photographers (not including myself) will narrow the list down to the top 10 finalists. Those 10 finalists will then be posted on my blog and voted on by the PUBLIC.

What does the 2008 Fresh Face win?

A complimentary session (valued at $125) and a $100.00 print credit to Deanna Hall Photography. Pretty COOL! By entering this contest, you agree to let Deanna Hall Photography have COMPLETE CREATIVE CONTROL of the session. What does that mean? If your child is named the winner, I will personally choose and PURCHASE the clothing for your session, pick the hairstyle and the location to go with the look that I want to create for your session. After the session, you keep the clothing!

We encourage you to forward this information on to your friends; however, there are a few quick notes that you (and they) will want to be aware of before entering.

And of course….the fine print…

hee hee… Danette..you KNOW I am just bugging you!

I had the great pleasure of meeting a wonderful mommy to be today!

Danette has a wonderfully bright and open home, which makes a photographer JUMP for joy!
I am super excited to head back in about a month or so to do some newborn photos, and really excited to see how the nursery turns out! I got a sneak peek today, and it is a stunning yellow color, I cant wait to see what the room looks like when it is completed! (I love yellow, my daughters room is yellow?)

Keep watching all week, as I add a few more sneak peeks from today’s session!
