Monthly Archives: December 2010

I simply cannot believe that the end of 2010 is right around the corner!  It’s been such an amazing year for both my business and family life.  Portraits have been non-stop all year long, my busiest year yet for portraits.  It was a nice change since I didn’t photograph as many weddings this year, due to being pregnant with our 3rd son.  Our son, Tyler, was born in October and the pregnancy journey with him was a miracle in itself.   I definitely have a lot to be thankful for.

Anyways, each year, I post my favorite photos that I’ve taken throughout the year but this year, I’m going to change it up a bit and continue this “tradition” to help Pay It Forward to my fabulous clients and their families!  Please remember that I’ve had dozens of portrait sessions and multiple weddings to photograph.  If for some reason your session or wedding didn’t make the “cut”, please don’t take it personally.  I honestly love each and every one of you and I cannot wait to see you again in a future session!  I spent days narrowing down to the final 15 images and even then, that was hard!

From now until December 31st, I will be taking votes as to who is the “Viewers Choice”.  Vote on your favorite image simply by commenting on this post (Facebook comments won’t be counted) as to what the image number is and of course, if you want to comment on the image itself, I’m sure the person who the image was photographed for, would love to hear why you chose their image! 🙂

If you want a chance to vote twice, feel free to join my photography page on Facebook by visiting this link:  http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home#!/pages/Teresa-Sweet-Photography/35033996945 and then comment again listing the number of the image you want AND that you joined the photography page.

Two votes are all that will be counted and to make it fair, IP addresses will be tracked to make sure everything is legit.  Feel free to share this contest with friends, family, post to your Facebook page, tweet it, whatever you’d like to spread the word to help you win! 

Now what do you win???  The “Grand Prize” winner will receive an 11×14 Float Wrap of the image I chose to put in this contest and $25 off their session fee the next time they book.  There will also be a couple of “runner-up” prizes but keeping with the holiday spirit, let’s keep it a surprise!  I promise it will be worth it and you’ll LOVE it!

Are you ready?!  Spread the word and get to voting!

****PLEASE NOTE:  Clients may not ask to change any of the photos as they are strictly my choices for the year.  I also reserve the right to make any changes to this contest at any given time.   Winners & prizes will be announced in January 2011.  Good luck and have fun voting!****

I had the honor of meeting Kristen through one of my past brides, as she was in the bridal party.  We’ve stayed in contact since the wedding and it’s great to get to know her better.  I was so excited to hear when she was pregnant and even moreso to hear that she was having a girl!  (Oh…BTW…Kristen is best friends with my bride, Jeana…and it so happens that Jeana is expecting a little girl in Feb.  So their daughters can grow up to be best friends as well.  Love the idea of that for the two of you)!

Meet Ella Jean…she is 2 weeks old and my goodness, she was an absolute GEM to photograph!  Here are a few of my favorites from today (I know, how’s that for a quick sneak peek?!).  I am THAT excited about these photos!

Kristen, ENJOY these portraits of your lil’ princess!

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of photographing 3 beautiful sisters.  I have to say THANK YOU for braving the cold weather and wind for the quick session.  I know your mom & dad will be thrilled and maybe will take you up on that offer of extra Christmas presents for doing this for them! haha 😉 

Here’s a couple for you to view:
