Unravelling4

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:

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. 

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.

One person will receive a custom piece of jewelry of their choice from The Vintage Pearl.

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.

From their homepage:


We are a community of women who have a passion for photography. Some
of us are amateur photographers who just want to take better pictures
of our family, some of us are hobbyists, and some of us are seasoned
pros.


We learn from each other and help each
other. We have all types of cameras, from DSLR's, to small point and
shoots, so anyone can jump in!
This is a safe
place to share your photos and chat about photography.


Our forums and
galleries are closed to non-members. All members must register through
this site and Paypal, which makes it a more secure place than some of
the free photo sites.


Our site features great
and easy to understand tutorials, lessons and challenges. All of the
contributions are from fellow members who are more than happy to help
and give advice to one another.
We pay back our
members who contribute.


We offer substancial affiliate commissions and
cash/ prize rewards for members who contribute and participate. In
fact, more than half of the profits go right back to our members.
 


It's also a great bunch of women (and a few brave men!) that enjoy
hanging out with people that have a common passion - photography!

    My favourite from this last passing weeks is the one of horses suddenly finding my garden the perfect spot for a snack. Living in the countryside has it´s advantages but this! And beeing the one "afraid of everything moving" - getting out and taking this picture was ... brave! A minute to remember of different reasons for a long time.

    We went to the beach last week and I took a darling picture of my husband and daughter. They are wading in the water and holding hands. The light was perfect, there was no one else on the beach-- it was a perfect shot!

    my fav photo right now is actually a picture of my husband and me.....I'm breaking a bottle of champagne over the bow of his new fishing boat.....made completely wheelchair-accessible for him. This boat is he culmination of a lot of saving, planning 7 dreaming for years. That photo says it all for us.

    A recent fav photo is of, believe it or not, me! It's a candid shot my husband took of me standing in the thigh deep, crystal clear water of Disney's stingray pool on Castaway Cay. I love it because, first of all, it's candid (I hate having my pic taken!) and I actually look ok in it! I also love it because it captures my expression, one of shock and glee, when I first noticed the stingrays swimming all around me. They are visible in the photo as well. Every time I look at this photo, I smile. Oh, and the best part--it's already scrapped!

    Hi!
    My most recent favorite photo is of my husband and our two kids. They all had a stomach virus and were in pj's, hair uncombed, etc. The kids curled up on Dad's lap in the lazy boy while I did some laundry. When I came upstairs, they were all sleeping; my husband was cuddling both kids tightly and was snoring to beat the band. I couldn't resist taking the photo - he loves them so much that, even when he wasn't feeling well, he was still holding them tightly.
    Have a great weekend!

    My favorite photos right now (I can never choose just 1...) are both of my teenage son who will be starting high school this year. (Next week my faves will be of my daughter who turns 16!) He is becoming so grown up and I wish him the best as he continues to grow and learn. Here is the link:

    My daughter just turned 6 months so I took a little photoshoot of her. I was lucky enough to get some shots that I just love. Here is a scrapbook page I did with them:

    My favorite photo lately is one from our recent family vacation to Oregon. We were at the Oregon Aquarium, and we told our youngest daughter, who is almost 2, to kiss the giant stone turtle in the playground and we caught the perfect moment perfectly!

    A photo of my mom, me and my grandma. We were at a tea at my mom's church. My grandma will be 90 next month, and I'm so grateful and blessed to be able to spend time with her.

    Gosh, I have several but I have one of my husband and daughter from Easter that is just soooo sweet. His eyes are closed and he's embracing her and she's looking directly into the camera. It's full of emotion.
