I just wanted to do a quick post on what I have left as far as sessions for 2010.
For on location sessions:
October 23rd-2 sessions
October 30th-morning session
November 13th-2 sessions

I might be able to squeeze one or two more on location sessions in, so send me an email if these dates do you not work for you.

Studio Sessions:
I can be a lot more flexible with studio sessions. I usually can do upto 3-4 per week, and most of the weeks between now and mid November, I only have 2 on the books, so please let me know as soon as you have a date you would like to try, and I can hopefully get you on the schedule.

New Contest!!!!

Silliest/Funniest Photo Contest

Okay, so this contest should be really fun! It will be similiar to the last contest I had, as far as voting goes.

Please read this entire post so you can see all of the rules, and post on here if you have any questions so I can update as needed.

What you can win:

There will be 2- first place winners and 2-2nd place winners, as there will be 2 different ways to win!

I will be giving away gift certificates to use towards any session, or print purchase

2-$50 gift certificates

2-$25 Gift certificates

How to win:

1) Collect as many votes as you can on your funny photo! Get everyone you know to come and vote!

2) I will gather up a handful of non partial judges (Will be my family memebers that do not live in North Dakota, or know any contestants) and they will vote on which photo is the funniest/silliest! (This means even if you get NO VOTES on my page, you still can win!)

What to do:

Email me your silliest photo that has you, or someone in your family (can even be pets) in the photo. (someone related to you must be in the photo...it can not be a random photo you find online) by Thursday the 17th. One Photo per family

STACY@STACYVANDYCKPHOTOGRAPHY.COM Please include the names of all people/pets in the photo :)

You may share the contest link, as well as a link to your photo on my page to try to help collect votes.

You can vote for more than one photo.

You can only vote on each photo once (facebook will not even allow you to vote more than once)

How does the Contest work?:

I will post ALL of the photos at the same time on Friday September 17th. I think this will make it a little bit more fair, so all will be posted at once.

Once all photos have been uploaded on my fan page, the voting will start. Votes will be counted as before by the most "likes" on your photo.

Voting will end the following Friday the 24th at 10pm central time, to allow a full week of voting.

Have fun!

Update

All of my slots for the Pumpkin Patch Sessions are now filled (still waiting on one deposit, so a slot might open back up in 2-3 days). If you are wishing you had booked a session, but didn't, please contact me. If I get at least 3 people wanting to book a session still, I will add Sunday the 3rd on as well. I just need to know so I can start a list of those interested possibly.

I will be posting info, as well as sending out an email/mail with more details of your session and what I need from you.

Pumpkin Patch Session

Alright folks! I have one slot available left for the Pumpkin Patch Photos to take place at Papa's Pumpkin Patch in Bismarck, ND on October 2nd. I have my 12pm slot still available. This is a mini session to last 30-45 minutes. Price is $99 and includes the session fee an 8x10, 2-5x7s, and a sheet of wallets (they do not have to all be the same photo!)

Family, Fun, Love.

I could tell about 2 minutes after meeting this family, that they have a lot of fun, and a lot of love. Mom and Dad also seem to have their hands full with these 2. They are both RUNNERS. I mean that in two different ways...they both like to take off running, and they are both pretty fast runners as well! It's okay though, I got a good work out :D

More girl time :)

This was for sure a girl weekend for me! It was a good to finally get to mix it up a little bit from all the adorable boys I have had recently. Little monkey was miss serious the entire time though. Mom and Dad said she normally smiles a ton, but she was just not sure about what was going on. I am sure next time she will much happier Mom :)

Sweet baby girl newness!

I was sooo excited to be able to finally do a shoot with a brand new baby girl! I have had so many boys in here lately! Little Miss M was a perfect little angel! She is such a good sleeper (during the day mama says!) and stayed asleep for the entire session until big sister and brothers showed up to do a few shots at the end!

Cake Smash

Again, I started shooting this birthday boy since he was in mommy's belly, and now he is already celebrating his 1st Birthday! Where does the time go?!?!? Mom wanted some good 1st year photos of him, as well as a Cake Smash. Apparently this was not his first time having birthday cake, since he pretty much knew exactly what to do.
