Treasured Images by Sara’s Photo of the Year Contest! :: Central IL Photographer

January 10, 2011 by sara

The very first (hopefully annual) Photo of the Year contest!! Let’s get the new year rolling by choosing a winner! In going through the year’s sessions to get them fully archived I selected some of the images that made my heart smile. However in order to determine a winner it’s up to all of YOU!!

The poll below has clickable thumbnails to see the image larger if you prefer:

Poll not displaying? Here is the direct link.

~The winner will receive an 11×14 Gallery Wrapped Canvas of their winning image PLUS $200 gift certificate good toward any 2011 Collection Session!!
~The 1st Runner-up will receive an Heirloom Mounted 8×10 of their image as well as a $100 Collection gift certificate.
~And lastly is a Facebook Fan Bonus!! A Facebook Fan will be chosen at random to also win a $100 Collection gift certificate. So be sure to “like” the Facebook Page for your chance to win!

The fine print….
* Voting runs from January 10th – February 10th at 11:59 p.m. Central Time.
* Voting is filtered by IP address – so one vote per IP address is allowed.
* The running results will not be visible. The winner will be announced via email and on the blog February 11th.
* Gift certificates are fully transferable and are promotional gift certificates valid from February 11th through December 31st, 2011.
* Gift certificates are valid toward any future 2011 Collection session.
* I reserve the right to disqualify entries or terminate/modify the contest if necessary.
* No purchase is necessary to win.

I can’t wait to see who will win!! Each of you helped make 2010 such a spectacular year, thank you. You truly bless my heart, each of you!!

I’m kinda biased to “Santa watching newborn”; his perfect little round face & contentment to sleep in Santa’s beard

Beautiful work, art is a language and that newborn is certainly saying “i am content” lovely and heartwarming.

I love the family cuddle! Not only is it super cute, but I’m amazed that you captured a family of 5 so well!

  it is my favorite – it is my gorgeous family. But what the picture doesnt say is that it took hours to get there. minutes before sara left we grabbed the kids onto the couch for a family hug and sara took that picture – GENIUS!!!
