Congrats to yesterday’s winner Delayna McDaniel!

We went local for today’s sponsor!  Today’s lucky winner is going to win two frames, one 12×12 and one 6×9 from Signature Homestyles from representative Deb Brand!  As soon as she showed me the frames I just loved them!  They are made with two pieces of glass so you can put one picture to fill the whole space or a couple of pictures collage style and your wall will show through.  Because their website is flash I was unable to grab a picture of the frames.  You can see the frames by going to their Fall/Holiday catalog on page 43, it’s frames B & K.  You may have seen me use frames during my sessions so along with the frames you’ll also get a mini session showcasing your frames (I’ve already been brainstorming some fun ideas!) and remember you can win this to give as a gift and they can bring in the frame too!

Here is what Deb has to say about Signature Homestyles…Signature Homestyles is a Family, women owned business and has been around for 40 years.  We have lots of Quality, Affordable products for Organizing, Decorating, and Entertaining!  Deb sent me a fantastic 50% off sales flier that I’m unable to share on here because it’s in PDF form but if you want me to email it to you just send me a quick email at jenniferjphoto@aol.com and I’ll send it to you!

Congrats to yesterday’s winner Sarah Cupp!!

Today’s sponsor is Rosebud Lips….oh how I love that name…it makes me think of my girls’ lips when they were babies.  Today’s lucky little diva is going to be wearing this Vintage Diva Rosebud Headband.  Handpicked by moi….and yes that was VERY hard!

What the owner Lauren has to say: I’m 27, and a dreamer. I am a stay at home mommy in The Woodlands, TX, and love to do what I do. I have always been creative, and learned to sew at a young age. I was taught by my grandmother (Nana) and my mom (Tama). I have always loved fashion, and at a young age moved to New York City. I had the opportunity to intern for designer Cynthia Rowley, which was an amazing experience.

To tell you why I became a designer would have to be because of my sweet memories of being a little girl (about 4) and dancing around in my Nana’s silk bed sheets (my cape), adorned with her costume jewelry. I felt like a princess. My Nana has collected jewelry from my family generations back, and I felt like each piece had a story. This inspired me to use antiques in my pieces. I love textures, antiques, fabric and jewelry. Together, these form my concepts for my collection– Making every woman feel beautiful.

I started the company in 2009, shortly after my mom passed away from Cancer. She was my best friend, and my biggest supporter. She was an artist herself, and she told me to follow my dreams and be creative. This motivated me to leave the marketing/PR world that I worked in for over 5 years. She has changed the course of my life, and I’m so excited for what the future holds.

The name Rosebud Lips was actually the nickname that she gave me when I was little, then my little girl (her grand daughter).

My other passion is to support the mercy project. Please know that each item that is sold through my shop directly benefits Mercy Ministries of America. They provide hope and healing to generations of desperate young women who are seeking freedom from life-controlling problems such as: drug and alcohol addictions; depression; eating disorders; unplanned pregnancy; physical and sexual abuse; self-harm. Go to www.mercyministries.org for more information.

I LOVE that!!  You can check out her store HERE

Congrats to yesterday’s winner Tricia Sours!

Today’s winner is going to receive a beautiful handmade mini blanket from Yatoil!  I absolutely LOVE the patterns that she uses for all of her blankets.  When I was pregnant with my kids I didn’t really nest in the normal “cleaning” way (because really nesting or not I loathe cleaning) but I got way obsessed with blankets.  Had Yatoil been around when I was pregnant I’d have been in trouble lol! And of course along with the mini blanket if you’re local (or the person you’re giving the blanket to is) you’ll also win a mini session showcasing your baby with the blanket!  And I REALLY want to take a picture of baby with these blankets!!  Now I realized today when I was putting her info together that I’m not 100% sure if she’s giving a girl or boy blanket.  The picture she sent me was of the middle blanket shown (the Isabella) but I’m not sure if that was to show a sample or if it’s the one!  So if you have a girl enter with confidence but if you have a boy with no little girls around you maybe check back in later today!

Here is what store owner Monica has to say about herself…As a young child living in my home country dubbed Pais De La Eterna Primavera (Land of Eternal Spring) Guatemala, I got to experience my parents true love for us their 3 children. I am the oldest and only girl in the family; I was 9yrs old and 11yrs old when my brothers were born, as my custom would ordain I did a lot taking care for those boys (now they pay me back with frequent babysitting for my own 3 children) The one memory that truly reminds me of my parents great effort to provide for us is the one of my mom going to the open market and buying huge scraps of towels from a big manufacture, she would then cut them in different sizes, sew them and on the weekends She and I would go to a different town and sell them on the streets. She was brave, strong and teaching me how to be creative.
As I remember where the love of sewing came from, I know She had the same hopes and dreams as I do, stay close to my kids.  Nate 11yrs old, Sarah 7yrs old, Lucas 3yrs old.

Yesterday was a hat for the boys and we can’t let the girls have cold heads can we?  Today’s lucky winner will win the hat pictured below made by Cupc4ke, it’s cream with a red flower on it….perfect for Christmas!  Here is what Cupc4ake has to say about her store…I make mostly photography props but my items can be used in everyday life as well. I knit and crochet as well as sew and paint. I hand make all of my items myself (all items come from a smoke free home) and can specialize any of my items.  And don’t forget along with this cute hat if you’re local (or the person you’re giving it to as a gift is) you’ll also win a free mini session showcasing your cutie in the hat!

Yesterday was for the girls and today is for the boys!  Today’s lucky winner is going to receive the cutest little newsboy hat ever!  If you have a baby boy or have one on the way you NEED this hat!  Seriously how cute is it!

Polka Dot Posh specializes in photography props and crocheted items and patterns.  Don’t let the prop part throw you off though because what baby can’t use a cute hat?  I’m always on the hunt for new props but I love when clients bring something of their own because it makes it so special and personal.  And for any of you that crochet check out her patterns!

Because this item is for a newborn and it’s impossible to do a newborn in a 15 minute mini session (like all the other days are getting) today’s winner will also receive 45.00 off their newborn session when they bring the baby in with the hat!

Many people enjoy my beautiful jewelry, accessories and baby bling products. Each piece is handmade and designed by myself using the highest quality materials: swarovski crystals, bali silver, hand-blown beads, freshwater pearls,venetian glass, gold-filled & sterling silver findings and any other treasures that I come across.

This has been such a fabulous year, I can’t tell you how happy I am to be back in business, I didn’t realize how much I missed photographing kids every day until I had the chance to come back. I was so scared that the market wasn’t ready yet but you’ve all proved to me that quality photographs of your children really ARE important to you! I wanted to do something fun as a way to say thanks and I think I found it! Beginning December 7th there will be a give away EVERY DAY leading up to Christmas Eve!! I went and found lots of fantastic sponsors and I must say we are all very excited about this….and I’m really sad I can’t enter myself lol!!

There will be two ways….the first way is via facebook. Each morning I’ll announce the sponsor and show a picture of the item and you’ll comment on the item to be entered to win. If you’re not on facebook each day the sponsor will be showcased here on the blog and by commenting on that post you’ll be entered to win! Please choose ONE place to enter.  AND…if you’re local and it applies to the item being given that day you’ll also win a 15 minute mini session to have pictures of your child modeling the item you won! And the best part is that will apply to whoever is given the item (so if you’re an auntie and you win a tutu to give to your niece for Christmas she can still come in and have her picture taken in it!).
