It's hard to believe it's nearing the end of my second year as Julie Lawrence Photography. This year I had seven more sessions than last year and a lot more people that I didn't know. I have truly enjoyed growing this business and (hopefully) improving my photography. I learned so much this year. It seems like I learned something new at every session. My "official" anniversary date will be Feb. 09, but I am done for 2008 and wanted to celebrate with a blog contest. I picked 30 favorite images. I tried to pick something different than I've shown on the blog or my website. It may not be the parent's favorite image or even one they ordered, but I wanted to show some personality and variety. Vote for YOUR favorite image and that client will receive a free session in 2009! I know there are a lot of pictures, but I couldn't leave anyone out! Scroll all the way to the bottom of the post (after photo 30) for the poll. I also put together my annual slideshow of images which you can view below. This contest will end Dec. 31, 2008. To all my clients and my friends and family who sent me referrals, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope to see you again next year!

A Little Christmas Spirit!

You may have seen these (I posted them on my family blog), but I don't really post my own kids pictures here very often and I wanted to share them with my client friends. I hope these put you in the holiday spirit.
