I’m very excited to “crack open” Brown Eyed Photography’s most interesting contest yet: an Easter Egg Hunt!
Here’s how it works: tucked away throughout the website are little egg-pictures like this:
Your job is to find them all! How many? A dozen, of course. (And yes, the one above is your first egg!) When you find an egg, click on it to enlarge the image, and underneath the picture find the number and name of that egg. Write it down, or do your hunting in a separate browser window, because after you find the name of the egg, put it in your “basket” – the entry form below – and once you’ve found all 12, submit your answers to me. You have until Easter to find them!
What goodies are in store for the happy hunters? Everyone who fills their basket will be entered into a drawing for some sweet rewards:
Grand-prize mother-of-all-chocolate-bunnies: Photo session* with 16×20 canvas wrap
Second-place (x2) pair of yellow-sugar Peeps™: $75 gift certificate and 20×20 lustre print
Third-place (x3) pick-your-favorite jelly bean: $40 gift certificate
*or $150 off wedding photography
Does it get better? Yes it does! If you get a friend to join the fun, and they write you in the “referred by” section of the entry form, you’ll receive an additional entry (up to two) in the raffle, doubling your chance to win!
Grab your basket, poke around, and happy hunting!
(One little hint: you won’t find any eggs in any of the other blog posts. But everything else is fair game!
And if the top menu isn’t working properly in your browser, here is a static site map for navigation.)

Lately I’ve been curious about how many people read the blog. I love writing it, I love going back through and remembering each of the photo sessions… but maybe I’m the only one?
I’ve stumbled across a couple of other photography bloggers offering a fun give away that will help me figure out how many people are seeing the blog.
Here the deal:
The prize: The first name drawn will win a $225 Brown Eyed Photography gift certificate, the second name drawn will win a $100 gift certificate, and the third name drawn will win a $50 gift certificate that can be used towards a sitting fee and/or any prints or products.
How to enter:
You will be entered into the drawing for every one task you complete…
1) Leave a comment on this post
2) Become a
Brown Eyed Photography fan on facebook, then post in your status that you are now a fan and link back to this post. Finally come back to this post and comment to tell me that all you’ve become a fan.
(For those that are already facebook fans: you just have to post in your status that you are a fan and link back to this post and comment.)3) Link back to this give away on your blog and then comment on this post with a link to your blog.
That’s it! Three chances to enter!

– Winnings are transferable. You can definitely have other people enter for you OR you can enter with the intention of gifting your gift certificate if your name is drawn. Just know that they same rules apply to whoever uses the gift certificate.
- Deadline for entry is Saturday, July 18 at 8:00 pm. Winners will be announced on the blog by Sunday afternoon. Please check the blog on Sunday to see if you’ve won – you will need to email me to claim your prize!
- Winners must be willing to sign a model release allowing me to use the images from the sessions for promotional purposes, blog, website, etc.

I can’t wait to see what happens…

My goal was to finish updating the website before the end of the year… and I did it! So go over and check out the website.
My next goal is to update the blog format. Probably not be the end of the year… but soon.
In the new year I will start sending out a monthly e-newsletter. If you would like to receive the e-newsletter please go to the contact page to sign up. Everyone who signs up for the newsletter by January 10th will be entered into a drawing for a portrait sitting and a free 8×10. For every friend who signs up and puts your name in the “email content” portion of the contact page your name will be put in the drawing again. The drawing will take place on January 14th.
