Contest: Win A Photo ShootContest: Win A Photo Shoot

First off I’d like to thank everyone who has been checking out the site, who has subscribed to updates through the RSS feed and who may have subscribed through the new email alert (I’m not sure how good this works yet). I went through a tough time the past couple of weeks with the server the site was hosted on going down, coming back and then moving everything over to a new company. Everything is back and operational now and ready for updates and to lead off we’re starting with a pretty simple contest.

First check out this awesome cake below. It was created by Jeannette who you may remember from her wedding slide show or the wedding sneak peek post on the site. If you want more information on her awesome cakes check out her Facebook group.

Curt O'Neil Photographer - Wedding and Lifestyle Photographer - Sault Ste. Marie - Awesome Cake

And now to the part you’ve been waiting for. Up for grabs is a lifestyle or family shoot in Sault Ste. Marie or close surrounding area (if you want me somewhere else you will have to pay for travel). If you are one of my current brides you can use this shoot as an add on to your wedding as an after shoot. The only requirement from you for the shoot is that you will be willing to have a fun time and up for any of the crazy ideas I throw at you.

To be eligible to win all you have to do is post in the comment section below the answer to the following question: What two names does the character pictured in the cake above go by?

I’m leaving this contest open until next Monday (March 9) at 12:00 PM EST – so you have that long to look long and hard for the answer (you might even be able to cheat off of someone else in the comments). From there all correct entries will be put into a drawing to receive the shoot so do not worry if you are not the first one to respond – to increase your chances tell your significant other, your friends, your family or any other person you want to do the shoot with about the contest and have them enter. I will then either use a random number generator to select the entry or pull a name out of a hat – I haven’t figured this part out yet. If only one entry comes in it will make the choice easier.

Thanks for stopping by and good luck.

    This cute little (who was introduced in a Crescent Roll commercial in 1965) has two names: Poppin’ Fresh and of course The Pillsbury Doughboy. He was created by Mart Nodell who is well known in the comic book world as the creator of the original Green Lantern. Who knew?
