I’m a sucker for photo contests! This is a win-win situation… I get to “ooh” and “aah” over your absolute favorite photo of your child, and you get a chance to win a complimentary photo session with a disc of your 10 favorite, full resolution, images from your session ($850 value).

Here are the details:
1. Have a little photo session with a child in your life (or you can submit a recent picture, if you prefer!)

2. Send your ONE favorite picture to me via email at krissy@krissyallori.com. I will then post them to a special contest album on my facebook fan page.

3. Join my facebook fan page by either going to Facebook and searching for Krissy Allori Photography, or by visiting my facebook fan page directly here: Fan Page

4. Send people (your friends, family, co-workers, etc.) to join my facebook fan page and VOTE for their favorite picture (i.e. YOURS!). See rules below regarding the voting process.

5. The winner will be announced on December 7th based on the total number of votes for each entered image. Votes are counted as comments on each individual image/entry. A person must be a fan of my facebook fan page to vote. Votes from people that are not fans will not be counted!

And here are the rules:

- Entries must be submitted by SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21st. I will post all entries on Sunday, November 22nd, and the voting will begin immediately!!

- ONE entry per person.

- ONLY separate comments to a picture that state “vote” will be counted as a vote. Simply clicking “like” by the picture will NOT count as a vote!

- ONE vote per person!

- Voting will continue from November 22nd through December 13th. Winner will be announced on December 14th, 2009!!!

- Submitted images must be of a child or children under the age of 18.

- For obvious reasons, photos taken by professional photographers will not be accepted.

THE PRIZE!!!

The winner will receive a complimentary custom photo session, up to 2 hours at the location of your choosing, with a disc of your 10 favorite, full resolution, images from your session ($850 value).

The session is non-transferable, must take place in the surrounding areas of Portland, Oregon, and is to be redeemed by March 31st, 2010. A signed model release will also be required prior to the session.

Let the fun begin!!!

I’m not posting this for the “technical” quality of the photo. I actually took this from the passenger seat of the car, didn’t set my custom white balance, didn’t do any post editing in photoshop… but I love it. My two babies always keep each other happy in the back seat of the car.

We didn’t quite the mind blowing reds, oranges and yellows that were in full color towards the middle of October, but we were able to catch the very tale end of the beautiful Portland fall color up at Washington Park yesterday. Even better – it was dry all day! Even more better (I know that doesn’t sound right) – I was able to get a shot with all three kids looking at the camera even though the younger two were more interested in exploring than having their picture taken. That meant no Photoshop headswapping – yay!
