Happy Holidays! Just a quick post to show off a couple of things I had printed before Christmas. One is the wall calendar I offer and the other is one of the hard cover books I designed for a client. I've partnered with some great printer/suppliers so I'm excited to add these and other products to my offerings - they'll be on the website soon!

AND THE WINNER IS....

photo #8. Congratulations!





And the winner of the $35 gift certificate (random draw from all voters) is Margaret Moore. Congrats again : )

Thanks to all who voted - over 150 votes came in.

A couple of quick notes - a few Jan/Feb session dates still available but the spring is starting to book up. Please contact me asap if you'd like to book a session.

Also, I need a baby fix and looking for some newborns to shoot : ) I'm offering 50% off the session fee* for the first 2 people who book a January or February newborn shoot (to take place within the baby's first month). Please contact me before the birth and we can arrange a tentative date. The best time for newborn shoots are during the first two weeks. Please spread the word to any pregnant friends or family members (a photo session makes a great baby gift too!)

*this offer is only available to people within Oxford County;
cannot be combined with any other offer

WOW - over 100 votes in just 2 days. Thanks to all who have stopped by, looked and voted. Keep it up - 5 more days to go : )

CONTEST TIME!

Ok, here it is, my first contest. As the year is coming to a close, I've taken some time to look back on all the fun shoots I've had and chosen my favourite 10 photos. Although I'd love to showcase one from each shoot, it would just be too many to ask voters to look at so I narrowed it down - it was tougher than I expected! All my 'other favourites' have been posted on my website. This is NOT a cutest kid contest (not a fan of those) - these are simply my picks chosen because of a feeling it evokes, a certain look, composition, colour - you name it.

What I'm asking people to do is take a look below at the 10 shots, fire off an email to info@kellymacdonaldphoto.com and give me the number of your favourite - numbers are found directly ABOVE photo (and there's a prize for voters too). I'll only accept one vote per email address and to keep this fair and from becoming a popularity contest, I'm going to invite some fellow photographers and my own friends to weigh in on their choice.

Here's the deal. The contest will be open for 7 days (December 15 to December 21). The winner will be posted here, on December 22. The person(s) in the photo garnering the most votes will receive their choice of:

1. A 2009 wall calendar - custom designed to showcase photos from your shoot;

2. A 11x14 print of the winning photo or any other photo from their shoot (mounted and ready to frame);

3. An 8" x 8" square, 20-25 page custom designed and printed softcover book of photos from your shoot; or

4. A $75 gift certificate to go towards a second photo session or to give as a gift.

AND, to thank everyone who votes, I'll do a random draw of all voters and the winner will receive $35 off a session.

So spread the word, get family and friends to vote and GOOD LUCK : )
