Giveaway Winner to Be Announced Shortly!

We're still climbing to reach 500 fans. We're close - just not quite there yet. Even though we didn't reach the goal of 500 fans for the end of the year I'd like to give something away. So, one lucky winner will be getting the digital images from their shoot for free (downloadable from my website) when they book a paid session with me. All you have to do is leave a comment on this Blog post or on the Cynthia Jill Photography Page on Facebook and I will randomly pick a winner on Sunday, January 9th 2011.


* Contest ends on Sunday 01.9.11 at 5pm eastern time


* Prize valued at $200!


* Session fee not included in prize


* Digital files included only (not prints)


*The photos provided to you are chosen based on artistic merit, quality and overall appearance. Though I may shoot hundreds of photos at your session, at no time will all photos taken during your session be available for viewing. Photos that do not meet my proofing criteria are destroyed after the initial run through of images.

*While there is no "golden" number for the amount of proofs that meet my proofing criteria and will be made available to you , it generally winds up being somewhere between 20-40 images per session. However, each session is different and I treat it as such.


* Unless printed through the Photo Lab I use, I can not guarantee the quality of your prints. Please keep in mind that cheap, do-it-yourself , 1 -hour photo "labs" will generally not produce high quality prints.


*One comment per person, please. Though multiple people from one family can comment


Good Luck!
