My friend Shanna asked me to take some first birthday photos of her gorgeous younger daughter, Devorie.  (Ok, actually Devorie doesn’t turn one for another month or so, but we had to get them in while they were in Boise a couple of weeks ago)  Devorie has the cutest personality – and look at those amazing blue eyes!  Thanks so much Shanna, I had so much fun!  Here are a  few of my favorites from our shoot (the first “official” shoot in my home studio – YAY!!)

This weekend I created a facebook page for my business … and I really need some people to “Like” me so I don’t have a lonely, sad little page! So, in honor of my new page, I’m going to hold a giveaway for new fans of my page.

First, the exciting info: The winner of the giveaway will win a free portrait session – up to two hours, at the location of your choice, with as many people as you think we can cram into 2 hours. Want to get a head-start on Senior pics? We can take those. Are you expecting? We could do a maternity/family shoot. Just need to update your family pictures? We can do that too!

The details:

1. I live in Kuna, Idaho – so this contest is open to people in the Treasure Valley only – if you live in the Boise/Meridian/Eagle/Kuna/Nampa Idaho area (or are planning to visit), please enter!
2. In order to enter, head on over to facebook and “like” my page.
3.  Then come back here and leave me a comment and let me know you want to be entered in the giveaway!
4.  You can enter more than once by posting about me, my page, or this giveaway on facebook, twitter, your blog, emailing all your friends and relatives … anything to help get the word out!  Be sure and come back here and leave a comment for each of the extras you do.
5.  Giveaway will be open for the remainder of June (last day to enter will be 11:59 pm MDT June 30th).
6.  I’ll use Random.org to choose a winner and announce it here July 1st.

You can find out more about me here. You can read about the usual portrait pricing options here. You can see some examples of my work here (or on facebook!).

Good Luck!

Last weekend I had the pleasure of taking some family portraits for my friend Jeana and her super cute family. I had a lot of fun – these two kiddos are full of personality. Thanks for having me over, guys! More to come soon, but wanted to share a few of my favorites.
