Party Like a Blogstar!

First, I haven't been to a party in ... well in years so I'm thrilled to be partying here with everyone from the 5 Minutes for Mom's Ultimate Blog Party =) Read more about that here:
Ultimate Blog Party 2010

Second, I was kind of afraid to join in this Blog Party....you know, maybe nobody will come to my blog, maybe nobody will like my blog, maybe I'm not a good writer and I really shouldn't be blogging after-all, those kinds of thoughts often plague me when it comes to my blog. (did I really just say 'blog' 5x in that sentence =) Then I decided to Just Do It, so here I am....Partying like a the Blogstar that I certainly am not, haha!!

***GIVEAWAY***

So I found the UBP a little late to donate a giveaway by the 9th so I'll have my own giveaway right here! I'll be giving a beautiful 8x10 image of one of my Hawaii Fine Art Prints. Here is a sample but you will be able to choose from a large collection:
sunrise

If you browse around here in my blog you'll notice it's more of a photo blog; after-all that is what I do! I am a photographer specializing in tender artistic images of newborns and babies. But firstly I am a wife, mother, and homemaker and I cherish all of these jobs. I tend to keep this blog more about sample images from my sessions...but hopefully as I get better at writing I'll include more personal day to day happenings too!

Anyways, so that is me in a nutshell. If you stumbled here from the party, leave me a comment to be entered into my HAWAIIAN ART GIVEAWAY! And subscribe if you find my work of interest to you =) I'll be sure to go support your page too! For now, it's off to church; I'll return later today to do some blog-hopping...see you then!!!

Wow, so many wonderful Giveaways...these are my favorite:
US95, USC 43, USC 16
backup:
US69, US88, US71, or any paypal, amazon, or target gift card =)

  6. Thank you so much for visiting our log! You know I was feeling the same as you as far as entering the UBP. This is my first one and I was (well still am) worried no one will visit or like the blog. I am not a good writer either. Again thank you so much for commenting!

    Can I also enter your giveaway? Your photography is awesome! :)

    No, I did not go to school for photography. I've been teaching myself for 20 years now through trial & error, online tutorials and plenty of books. Just start shooting, that's the best way to learn =)

  32. OK gals, since this is my 1st Giveaway....I'm not sure how to go about generating/choosing a winner. Any advice? I'd like to make it just a random number, and evident I'm not choosing the bloggers that mail me free stuff, lol, kidding nobody has mailed me free stuff...but you can if you want =) So give me another day to figure this part out!!!!! Thanks for your patience =)

  33. OKKKKKK I finally found random.org and have a winner...well actually 2 winners. I wasn't sure if I leave my comments in the overall number of comments or not, obviously I wouldn't win the GA but anyways so I'm going with 2 winners. The 21st if I leave my comments in & the 21st if I'd take my comments out =) HSuper Parents of http://hsuperparents.blogspot.com AND Janel of http://amomstake.blogspot.com/ Yaay, I'll send you a personal message as well with the details!!
