Portraits by Angie Lane Celebrate Life Blog

Welcome to the first blog contest of the year! I had so much fun looking back at all of the photoshoots I did in 2009. I really have the best job! (And the best clients!!) I’ve chosen 17 of my favorites from last year, but now it’s your turn to vote for your favorite image! The portrait with the most votes will win a free portrait session (to be used by April 30) and a free set of wallets from the session. So be sure to send the link to your friends and family so they can vote too, and click on the “share” button at the bottom to share on your favorite social networking sites!

Voting will end at midnight on Friday, February 12.

In addition, anyone who makes a comment on my blog will be entered into a drawing for a free Little Angels session (more information coming soon). And if you make a comment on my facebook page you’ll be entered twice! Good luck!

I realized I forgot to announce the winner of last weeks’ blog contest! Congratulations Christi Edwards! You’ve won a fabulous spa treatment at Serenity MedSpa in Lodi! I will get your gift certificate in the mail!

I am so excited to unveil my new blog! Take a look around and check out all the new features! In the menu above, you can click on the link for “Categories” and then select any category you would like to view — such as country sessions, urban session, etc., and all of the posts with information or images on those sessions will come up. You can also search for a specific post by entering a term in the “search” box. 

And best of all — you can now sign up for blog updates by clicking on the “Subscribe” button above. When the new pages comes up, click on the link for “Get Portraits by Angie Lane Celebrate Life Blog delivered by email” (it’s located in the box in the upper right corner with the headline “Subscribe Now!). You will receive an email with a link that you need to click to confirm your subscription and voila! You’ll get updates automatically! This is important because I will be having specials that are only available to blog readers — and you don’t want to miss them!

I will also have several new features on my blog including photography tips, specials, information on limited edition sessions, contests and what I call “Fashion Fridays” — a compilation of outfits that I think work great for photographs.

So for my first contest — sign up to receive updates and then write a comment in the “Comments” section below this post and let me know you signed up (be sure to give me some contact information so I can notify you if you win!). On Saturday I will randomly choose a name from the list of subscribers and who ever wins, will get a free spa treatment at Serenity MedSpa in Lodi (the owner Elizabeth is FANTASTIC!). The value of the treatment is $199!
