I think it's time to celebrate my official business launch. After a year plus of portfolio-building, and many many hours spent learning and working on the business side of photography, I am ready to jump in with both feet. Yay! With a new blog look, a new logo, a website, and {most importantly, heehee} permission from the great state of Idaho and the IRS, I'm ready to call myself a photographer.
And what better way to thank all my past and future clients than with a GIVEAWAY!
What can you win?? A FREE photo session!! {including the session fee and collection one, this is a $395 value!}. Anyone in Eastern Idaho or Utah is eligible....or anyone willing to travel here. What if you already have a session booked? Yes, you can enter, too and your session will be free.

ReplyDeleteYour website is lovely!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Tami! I'm excited for you to get all official-like. I think I would go with art print #1 ... or maybe #3. You have to tell me where they are all shot so I can go and visit those gorgeous places!
ReplyDeleteAnd I visited your website and it looks great. I love your "about" page. Perfectly describes you :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I have been a fan of your photog facebook page since the beginning I think!
ReplyDeleteI am still in love with the pictures you took of my girls, and would love to have you take our family pictures this fall!
ReplyDeleteI love your website..and your logo is awesome too! Thanks for featuring my sweet babies on your site!
ReplyDeleteI officially liked you on Facebook!

I'm so excited you're officially up and running. You deserve the best! Thanks, Tami!!
It is a tie between print #1 and #3. I love them all, though. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteThe website looks great Tam! Good luck with everything.
ReplyDeleteI am SO HAPPY FOR YOU! What a huge step, my friend! You do a fantastic job - and I do love the website. Classy stuff, the pictures of Lis's kids are some of my very favorites :) If you're really giving a picture away, I'd love number 4 :)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations! It looks great! I want a head shot session so I can update my website with more current pics, and maybe to use on some new business cards.
ReplyDeleteI already gave you feedback about your site in person, but I guess I can again. :) It looks fantastic! I love the simplicity of it, and the color scheme. My fav might be the pics of Johnny (course). I like your bio; it's very creative. I like the slide-show feature but I wish it scrolled through the pics faster.
ReplyDeleteI liked your Facebook page (a while ago).

Tami! I knew you wouldn't have any trouble with lots of people entering to win! So if I win, I want your picture of the cows, #4. Although, I love them all and this is a little bit of a debate!.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I liked you on facebook a long time ago, does that count?
ReplyDeleteOk, here's to the website comment: its fabulous! But of course it is! You are fabulous! And I particularly like the photos of that Athay family. They are quite the handsome set!
ReplyDeleteAnd now I shared your link in my facebook status...and I talked you up because you're amazing! But I don't know when I'm going to have time to blog!
ReplyDeleteMy little girl is turning 1 this summer, so I'd love family pictures and one year pictures!
ReplyDeleteLoved your website. It was simple to navigate and well put together. I saw exactly the kind of photos I'm looking for, and I saw my favorite Eckman family! I used to babysit those kids.
ReplyDeleteI "like" you on facebook!

ReplyDeleteLove the website!
ReplyDeleteHey! I'm Leah Dorsey, Bekah's roommate and I just got engaged!! I would love to have you do our engagement pictures!
ReplyDeleteTami,
ReplyDeleteI can't wait for you to take Kim's senior pictures! You do beautiful work!
Tami,
ReplyDeleteI love all of the pictures you have posted, but I especially love the pictures of your darling children! You have the most creative Valentine pictures I have ever seen!
I don't have a blog or I would mention it on there--I'm still learning how to get around Facebook. I will tell everyone I know about you though!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, you've already got quite a few comments. I really never win anything, but that doesn't stop me from trying... :). I'd have you take a family picture; we haven't ever had a professional one taken. After this baby is born. As for your pictures, they are all so beautiful! It's hard to choose a favorite since they're all different. I think I like...4,2,1,3 in that order. I think.
ReplyDeleteI love that you have a mobile option to view your website! It seemed to take a little long to load pages, but that could be a problem from my end and not yours. I used my phone.
ReplyDeleteI liked your page on Facebook, too! :)
ReplyDeleteOh! I just realized I've probably missed your time deadline! Oh well! :)
ReplyDeleteBetter late than never right?! You take the best pictures...enter me in the contest!
ReplyDeleteAllison
Tami,
ReplyDeleteI love the website. I love that you don't over photoshop pictures. You really can't tell you've done a bunch of touch ups and made us look good! We just think we're that hot!
I already liked your Facebook page a long time ago...can I still use this entry ;)
ReplyDeleteTami,
ReplyDeleteI pimped you out on my facebook page :) (in a good way of course)
I would love to have you take pictures of my children.
ReplyDeleteYour website is beautiful and captures the diversity of your abilities. I particularly love the candid shots.
ReplyDeleteI have liked your FB page, even if I am past the deadline. I truly think you do amazing work.
ReplyDeleteI have promoted you on FB @ http://www.facebook.com/brandyheiner
ReplyDeleteAnna still needs her Senior Class pictures taken. Hope she wins!
ReplyDeleteBlogged about at http://heinerlife.blogspot.com. I'd love to have new pictures of my kiddos.
ReplyDeleteForgot to thank you for the wonderful pictures of our family and friends. You are amazing! The picture you took of Max is on my screen saver. Thank You a million!
ReplyDeleteFor the record, the lighthouse one is my favorite. They are all amazing, but I have always loved lighthouses and the color red! It's beautiful.
