Can I just tell you how incredibly hard it has been to choose a winner for the Giving is Awesome event?? It's been so hard that I am a day late in announcing a winner. Each person that nominated a family member, friend or coworker took the time to write me wonderful notes sharing how amazing each person is. I've been trying all day to figure out how I might just award every nominee, but alas, I must pick only one.
Drum roll please.....the winner is Angie Mitchell! Her sister-in-law, the marvelous Mollie Mitchell nominated her. After overcoming many obstacles in her life, Mollie states that Angie "...is an incredible human being who has brought so much joy and inspiration to our family". I look so forward to meeting such a wonderful lady, her husband and three kiddos (with one on the way!)
Thank you so much to all the people who nominated folks - every story grabbed my heart.
Since I haven't met Angie yet, I thought I'd include a photo of the super cool Mollie whom I met at Katie & Rob's super fun wedding last June!

Ok everybody, you know someone. You know someone who's experienced something awful, is struggling to make ends meet, they are raising kids while working more than one job or someone who gives and gives of themselves despite their own personal situation.
You know someone who can't afford some beautiful photos, but who would really love to have them. You know someone who deserves a visual reminder of their own family's spirit, joy and love of being together.
You know someone and I want to know who they are. I want to give them a photo experience to remember - $1000 worth to be exact. They will receive a 2+ hour session with me, a CD of images from their session and a sweet 10x10 custom album created by me.
Oh yes, the person who nominates the winner with receive a $250 print credit as well...you show some love and you'll get some love in return!
Here's the fine print...
**you cannot nominate yourself and the person you nominate must sincerely be unable to purchase my services.
**the nominee must reside in WA. Tell me who they are, what they're experiencing and why they deserve a session with me. Please include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself.
**email me the info please so I can read and reread - click here to email
Nominations need to get to me by midnight on 12/31/09 - New Year's baby!!! The winner will be announced on Monday, January 4th, 2010. Get to nominating - I can't wait to read all of your entries!!
By the way, the awesome Emily G down in Portland totally inspired me to get join in on the Giving is Awesome bandwagon...she rocks.
I am so grateful for the gifts I've been given and I can't imagine a better way to start off 2010.
