Valentine’s Day Giveaway!

Valentine’s Day is upon us and I am feeling the love after spending the afternoon picking up the last of our Valentine’s Day surprises!  Forget the numbers and forget the original parameters…I am going to do the contest tomorrow!  Tomorrow morning I will update MDP’s status.  Everyone who likes that status (and is a current fan of our page) will be entered into a random drawing for a $50 Target gift card.  No strings attached.  Just a big ol’ thank you for your support and love on this journey so far.

The random winner also will have the option to decline the gift card and instead choose a $500 discount to be applied to the wedding package of their choosing.  The catch is that this portion of the contest is transferable.  So, for example, if you are getting married and recruit your posse there is a possibility to rock the vote.  If you have 20 people like our page & status update, then any one of those folks could win and  could pass along that wedding discount to you (if they really do turn down the Target GC!).  It’s like getting a whole bunch of extra chances to win 🙂

So remember.  Like us.  Like our status.  Win $50 gift card or $500 discount on a wedding package.  It’s really is that simple.

Much love!!

You want it? You got it!

First, Happy 4th!

Second, in light of our recent decision, which happens to by my second resolution achievement (soon to be three resolution achievements), we are going to be doing a giveaway!  I really wrestled with how to set this up and what to give.  What I decided was just to do two (yes, two) giveaways.  I like to think of it as one for each resolution I have recently checked off.

We shared almost two months ago that we would have an article and accompanying photos published in September (√).  In the next three weeks, I will graduate from my MBA program (√) and then my “real-job” will be this (√)!  That only leaves one resolution….the foreign-country-wish-I-moonlighted-as-a-photo-journalist shoot.  I figure I still have a few months to get hubs to take me to Africa…right? 😉  But, I digress…Giveaway one: for all the soon-to-be-not-so-single ladies. 

Let’s be honest…this one requires a little work.  Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to tell us why you said “yes.”  Was it his smile, his willingness to go get a pedicure, or his willingness to pay for you to have a pedicure?  Did he drop the ring in the spaghetti plate?  Does he write you songs, paint you pictures or walk your tiny dog with no complaints?  Whatever it is…we want to know!  Email your entry to mariandavidphotography[at]gmail.com.  We will stop accepting entries Sunday, July 31st and will announce a winner by August 7th.  The lucky couple will receive a $500 discount from the wedding package of their choice and we will share their entry alongside their photos!Giveaway two: for families, mommies, soon-to-be-mommies, newborns, seniors, etc.

The only requirement for eligibility is that you must “like” us on FB.  When we hit 300 fans (which could be next week or next year, lol!) we will pick one fan to receive a free shoot at a location of your choosing!  For those of you who like to cheat a little there will be an opportunity for additional entries.  If you send someone and they leave your name on our wall…then you will get your name in the hat an extra time.  For example, Suzy Q likes us.  One entry for Suzy Q.  Joe Bob likes us and leaves Suzy Q’s name on our wall.  Suzy Q now has two entries and Joe Bob has one.  Easy peasey!  Will will announce this winner within 7 days of reaching 300 fans!
