Best of 2008… A Contest!!!

ALOHA!

Announcing the contest for best image of 2008. I wanted to pick one from each session, but there were just so many that I had to narrow it down. I had an unbiased opinion (my hubby) who helped me select my images.

The winner will receive a framed 16X20 of the image. Also, for anyone who votes and books a session you will receive a free 16X20 of an image from your session. You must book your session before the contest ends, though to get the super cool dealy-O.

To vote, please make a comment below in the comment box for whatever number you are voting for. Please no fake email addresses and only one vote per person. My system can track these things, so please no cheaty cheaty or your vote won’t count.

Contest will end on January 10th, 2009 at midnight.

Have fun and get all your friends, family, coworkers and enemies involved. Okay, well maybe not enemies, but you get the idea;)
