Giveaway

IMG_4684copy

So two years ago a little voice told me I could do something.

Something besides eating chocolate without feeling guilty.

That I could do whatever I could put my mind into: and that was take my talent to the next step. Study, practice and practice some more and become a professional photographer.

JT Photography was born April (I wish I knew the exact date) 2009.

And since that it’s just been beyond words. I haven’t had a month without work, and sometimes months where are can’t fit sessions in. It just blew my mind.

And I could name tons of people here, but it is just easier to say you.

Because truly, it was and is, you.

You were the one who called me, who believed and appreciated my work.

You and my husband. He was the little voice.

And still is.

He was the one who believed in me from the beginning, and because of him I am here until this day.

Because of him and you.

So,

long story short I want to give you a present. Actually, my husband is.

I am giving away a photo session (family or couple) to you, and you only need to do two (maybe three) things:

  1. Like my page on Facebook.
  2. Leave a comment here or on my Facebook page answering the question: “What makes you smile?”. The best answer will win a family or couple photo session.
  3. Aaaaand – this isn’t really a requirement, but gosh, I would love if you share this giveaway with your friends on Facebook. (it might give you some extra points with my hubby – since he will be the one who will choose the best answer)

Just one more thing: The photo session will happen either at the Salt Lake or Utah Valleys. So, anyone can participate. Just keep in mind that if you live in another state (or country) you will have to come to good old Utah for it. Also, the photo session will happen between the moths of June or July of this year.

The winning entry will be announced here on May 1st 2011.

Good Luck to you all!

Something that make me smile "THE SIMPSONS" hahaha. I just love Homer's sense of humor:

" And how is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive? "

Ju, tem mesmo muitas coisas que me fazem sorrir, mas deixa eu compartilhar uma que me fez sorrir ontem.
Eu estava trabalhando como sempre ate altas horas da madrugada. Como meu office eh no meu quarto, o Ocimar dorme no guest room para ele poder dormir, entao fico sozinha na frente do computador trabalhando por horas e horas, mas ontem o Ken e a Kalena vieram juntinhos no meu quarto no meio da noite dizendo que queriam ficar comigo, mas eu disse e muito brava "Nao da. Mamae ta' trabalhando, volta pra cama agora!", mas o Ken falou "Mamae, vc pode continuar trabalhando. Eu e a Kalena so queremos ficar na sua cama e assim ficamos com vc ao mesmo tempo, sei que vc esta busy."
Como toda mae emotiva, vc sabe, as lagrimas sairam dos meus olhos e nao pude falar mais nada. Olhei para a tela do computador e tentei continuar o que eu estava fazendo.
Eles deitaram na minha cama e dormiram logo depois, bem quietinhos, sem me trapalhar.
Parei de trabalhar, fui do lado deles e me senti muito, mas muito feliz, fiquei sorrindo que nem uma boba sozinha, no meio do querto. Algumas lagrimas cairam novamente dos meus olhos, mas eram de muita felicidade e nao conseguia parar de sorrir. Um flashback passou pela minha cabeca lembrando de quando eles nasceram e dos momentos felizes que tenho tido ao lado deles.
E pensei "Como sou grata por essas duas criancas que o Pai Celestial me deu. Mesmo eu sendo essa mae grumpy cheia de trabalho e papers para escrever, eles me amam e me faz sentir amada. E realmente naquele momento senti que vou dar o meu "melhor best" para ser a mae que eles merecem."
