Last year I started something I like to call the “Love Shots” contest. Basically, I love my couples and I love spoiling them with fun things like CANVASES!! As you all know, Valentines Day falls on a Monday this year….this coming Monday….like two days from now! Ah! This contest will end at midnight on Valentine’s day. By using the poll at the bottom of the post, blog readers can vote for their top 3 FAVORITE LOVE SHOTS! All weddings that I have shot since LAST Valentine’s Day are included in the contest! The top 3 couples with the most votes will each win a FREE CANVAS of their favorite wedding portrait! Wooohoo!!!!
Be sure to vote for your 3 FAVORITE shots and if you REALLY want your couples to receive a free canvas….SHARE this link on Facebook, Twitter, etc! Voting starts NOW at the bottom of the post! I’m so excited to see which couple will be receiving a gorgeous canvas from SimplyCanvas! (Photographers, this is by far the greatest canvas company out there! Promise!)
