I have been wanting to do this for a while, so I so excited that it’s actually happening! I am going to giveaway a full day of wedding photography to one lucky couple for FREE! No charge at all! And i’m doing this all because I love photographing weddings. I’m drawn to the emotion bursting from couples in love and their excitement to embark on the journey of marriage. They talk with me about how they got engaged, what the moment was like, the ring! That’s one of my favorite parts, some will go for Moissanite (see here), others will go for emeralds and sapphires, it really is a mix, and I love that. So in honor of this passion of mine, and in honor of all the couples getting married this upcoming year, I want to give away a wedding photography package.

To enter this giveaway you can be engaged, nearly engaged, or even if you know someone engaged or close to getting engaged, let them know about this amazing-ness happening!

As long as you are getting married this year (2014) and your wedding date doesn’t conflict with any weddings I currently have scheduled, you are eligible:)

What do you get with this amazing package?

• a consultation with me on all the details of your wedding and everything you expect on that special day
• an engagement session with 65+ digital images
• up to 8 hours of wedding day coverage
