A Valentine’s Day Giveaway | Houston Portrait Photographer for Babies, Kids, & Families

Okay, who among you hasn’t had a creative idea before, only to have your best plans thwarted by events out of your control? I was bound and determined to photograph a Cupid & a Cowboy this weekend (milestone photo shoots for two very special clients’ kids), however the Houston weather would not cooperate. Would you believe it was too cold? Seriously, I can hardly believe it myself, but indeed it was. I guess that groundhog knew a thing or two afterall. Friday was miserably rainy and Saturday and Sunday were unexpectedly frigid. Why, it was downright winter-y (quite unusual for us this year). We brought Baby O to the park anyway, thinking I could manage to get a few cute Valentine’s-themed photos of her…

…You can tell from her facial expressions that it was a bit too cold for comfort, so we didn’t stay too long…still, what a trooper. I rather love this girl….

Know who else I love? My awesome little sister! She is, among other wonderful things, a Stella & Dot Independent Stylist. She sells gorgeous jewelry and loves explaining the ins-and-outs to her customers…what piece goes with what, and how to maximize your purchase. This week she is doing a super cool giveaway here on the blog…

One reader will win $25 Credit to Stella & Dot jewelry. The winner will be announced in next Monday morning’s post…Curious what $25 will get you at Stella & Dot? Well, a few of my very favorite items are near the price range…Birthstone charms for you or your babies are $19 each, and what about a “MOM” or “SISTER” charm? They’re $34 each. Perhaps best of all is the dress-up jewelry that packs a huge statement in one classy little box.

To enter the drawing, simply;

1.) Check out the website here and email Independent Stylist, Carolyn Holden (annacarolina@comcast.net), to join her mailing list.

2.) “Like” my page on facebook or leave a comment here.

Winner will be chosen on Sunday evening and announced in next Monday morning’s post.

Simple as that….It’s Valentine’s Day (almost)….And you deserve something nice (If you’re a guy…Seriously, it’s a great way to get a gift for the lady in your life as well…).

XOXO
