I’m so excited to not only announce the winner from our first Baby as Art contest, but to also share this video with you all! We photographed this little guy on Wednesday and we took an extra few minutes to video a short segment of the session. I hope you all enjoy!!! (And let me just make a side note- my hands are really not that large… thanks to the fish-eye lens, I have gargantuan hands!! And, Carrie just informed me that she thinks I look mad in the video, lol! Please don’t confuse my concentrating face with a mad face. I’m in deep thought there, folks! Oh, the pressure of being on video. Carrie will just have to be the star of the next one
) If you didn’t win that lovely hunk of gauze… don’t despair! We have a new giveaway planned on Monday… and you are going to want to be a part of this one- it’s going to be great! Our winner is…. drumroll….. Lindsey Wiatt!!! Congratulations and thank you everyone for making our first give-thanks-contest a huge success!!!
And, just because I cannot resist sharing a few more of this beautiful little (all 5 pounds of him- he was an itty bitty one) guy… here are a few that I have gotten a chance to edit!
