{ i heart faces : “we are family }

January 20, 2010

this is a first for me! i’m taking part in a photo challenge over at the ‘i heart faces’ blog. i have the perfect photo for this topic.. it’s the first picture that came to mind when i saw that the topic had to do with family. i love this photo… it’s clear that this “blended” family has serious love for their youngest sibling/daughter… all i had to say was tickle “b” and, all hands went to her and, everyone’s face lit up with a HUGE smile! I was happy to capture that moment! i love all the photos from that session but, especially love this one. enjoy!

{ happy new year!! a little CONTEST for you! } delaware eastern shore photographer

January 4, 2010

Hello Everyone!! Happy New Year to you all!! I can finally share the girls Holiday photos. I was unable to share them up to this point because enlargements were given as gifts to the grandparents… now that the holidays are over, I can share them here :) yay!
I hope that you all had a very Happy Holiday and a very lovely New Years Eve celebration. I wish you all a very Happy 2010! To celebrate the new year, i’d like to host a contest for all people residing in Sussex and Kent Counties in Delaware AND, anyone located within 20 miles of Ocean City, Maryland. How it works is like this.. all you have to do is leave a comment on this post and, i’ll write up all the names on paper and pick them the old fashioned way.. out of a hat. Well, i’ll probably let my girls pick the names (i’ll post a little photo of them doing it when i name the winner). The contest runs until January 31st. Please tell all your friends and relatives that live in the area. I’ll post the winner on February 1st!! OH! I can’t forget.. haha. The winner will receive a 1 hour photo shoot and, a disc of as many images that I edit (usually 20-40)… the photo shoot must take place in 2010! Post away!

(If you have any trouble leaving a comment, just write me at erin@erinleighphoto.com and, I’ll either add your comment or just add you to the list for the drawing.. thanks!)
