Sponsor Giveaways: Susannah Conway, The Vintage Pearl, & Clickin Moms
This weekend I would like to first introduce you to Susannah Conway. She is a photographer, writer and workshop leader who lives in south-west England. Her beautiful and inspiring blog can be found here.
Susannah is giving away two things this weekend:
( 1 ) One person will receive an 8x8 inch fine art photograph of winner's choice from Susannah's Etsy store. They will also receive a set of Cupcake postcards.
( 2 ) One person will receive a spot in her late summer Unravelling: Ways of Seeing Myself online workshop. According to Susannah:
Check out the complete course outline here. The late summer session starts Monday July 13th and runs for 8 weeks. A fall session will also begin in late September. Testimonials of other's experiences in this workshop are located here.These definitely won’t be self-portraits in the traditional sense – we’ll be using the camera as a tool to unlock how we see not only ourselves but also the world we live in, including the immediate surrounds of our homes, places of work and our friends and family.
The Vintage Pearl is a wonderful custom jewelry shop that offers a variety of pieces suitable for your own words, names, and messages.
One person will receive a custom piece of jewelry of their choice from The Vintage Pearl.
Visit The Vintage Pearl Blog here.
Our third giveaway this weekend comes from Clickin Moms who recently did a redesign of their website for a lovely new look.
One person will receive a one-year membership to Clickin Moms.

I actually have 2 favourites. The first is one I just captured the other day - it's my baby girl discovering that she can suck her big toe. The second would be of baby girl and hubby - he was holding her and she dropped her soother. Then she decided his nose was a good substitute - the photo is of her sucking on his nose.

I am still really struggling with my photos coming out so dark from my camera- ever since it broke the setting seem so much darker. But having said that I love the photo I took of a storm moving up the gulf of Mexico to our spot on the beach and was able to use it straight out of the camera.

My favorite photo is of my son fishing for the first time. It is just him, a huge pole and the pond. Nothing else. I just printed it as an 8x10 and put it in a frame. It is going to be a series of 3 that will be displayed in my bedroom.

One of my recent favorite photos is of my cat Banky - you can see it on my blog http://dani-adayinthelifeofacoffeeaddict.blogspot.com/ he is sitting staring out the window and I just feel as if I caught him daydreaming it is just one of my favorite pictures right now :)

Perhaps it's too early (!?) to make a decision so I have two favorites. The one with meaning - my daughter in her cap and gown at her college graduation - and the one that looks prettiest - gorgeous, colorful, artfully arranged vegetables and fruit from the farmer's market. At least there's some variety in my photos, right?

My current favorite photo is one of my husband lying on the trampoline with my children. They are rolling arround on it and laughing. They are slightly blurry in thosh "motion swipes" but thats partly why I like it. I look at it and hear their voices! I know little about photography but have an awesome Nikon D50 that helps me luck out on some great shots. Wow, typing that out loud gives me a little pang to try reading the manual, sigh. -tania

My favorite photo recently taken is of my dog Dexter. He has been the most faithful friend I have ever known in my 40+ years. Love the old man so much and the photo shows such love in his big eyes.

Bonjour! My favorite photo these days is a close up portrait of my baby boy. It so close that don't see all his face and the camera was a bit tilted. He was smiling and you can see his two little teeth! So cute. In the same series, there is one almost identical but a bit blury which is simply "so him"

I have a picture of my little guys feet, wearing a great pair of Chuck Taylors, sitting in a wicker chair in the grass. It's awesome!

My favorite picture right now is of my sons and husband all crammed into the front drivers side of our van so I can snap a picture of them at the drive-in. The sun was just setting and they look so happy and gorgeous. It makes my heart melt. I love it.

My favorite photo is a picture of my son holding my daughter when she was a newborn. He was 3. That was 21 years ago and it is still my favorite.

Currently my favorite picture that I've taken is of my co-worker's daughter. She is just looking out over the lake so serene and relaxed. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_LXi-G0j-IU0/SjWJyThOoII/AAAAAAAAAZg/zBhhg6iYsN4/s1600-h/IMG_2683+copy.jpg

It's not just one photo. I traveled a lot in May and I documented all of it. I got the airports, pictures from the plane, everything. I'm so glad I got those pictures.

wonderful giveaways!!! one of my recent favorite photos is one of my two year old son laying in my lap wearing his batman suit. he's been wearing that suit almost non-stop for the last three weeks... summer time and felt suits aren't the best combo, but he sure loves it? :-)

A friend recently had a baby, and this is the first time I've had the opportunity to photograph a newborn. She was so sweet, and they were patient, but I was clearly out of my element on this topic. Looking forward to trying some more, though.

My recent most favorite photo was taken a few months ago http://www.flickr.com/photos/mimsmithfaro/3482261353/
I take tons of pictures of my kids. This was just a case of perfect timing. I was taking his picture and she snuck in.

My favorite photo is of my oldest daughter on her first day of scool one year (she's in 10th grade now). So innocent, so sweet, and so excited. I love looking at it even years later it is how I see her still.
