The other day I was daydreaming about Black Friday, which is perhaps my 24th favorite day of the year. After a giant Thanksgiving feast, I LOOOOVE to fat-dog it on the couch and browse through a huge stack of all the advertisements for the upcoming sales (WHAT?! $5 crock pot at Target?!?! I’ve already got three, but LET’S GOOOO!!!).

And then I started thinking….I want to have my OWN after-Thanksgiving sale.

SO. For two days only (Friday, Nov. 28 and Saturday Nov. 29), session gift certificates can be purchased for 30% off the normal price (that’s $175). Mark your calendars, and be sure to check back Friday morning for the link to purchase the discounted gift certificates.

Arica’s totally amazing senior session . . .

Fun fall family session . . .

I’m due for a break, but I’ll be back with more after the weekend! :)

Congratulations!

Thank you, everyone, for participating. I was absolutely flattered at the number of people who signed up.

To all of the participants: Be sure to check your inboxes–everyone who participated receives something special. If you didn’t get an email from me, check your junk mail folder (though I would be INSULTED if your email provider mistook MY message for junk!) :) If it’s no where to be found in your email account, give me a call or send me an email (a few of them bounced back saying your inbox was full).

That promotion was cake…fill out three fields and you’re done. Next time I want to do something a bit more creative, perhaps something with a theme. Of course I can only think of artsy things since that’s the way my brain works. Here are a couple of ideas:

a. submit a photo with some sort of theme to be decided….perhaps “something orange,” since that’s the Angie Wilson Photography color. I post my favorites, and the blog readers vote on the winner.

b. send in the worst-ever photo you can find from your past…whether it be the horrible prom pic, 80′s glamour shot with white vignetting, your childhood studio shot standing infront of a full-out forest-river-waterfall fake background, etc. (again, to be posted and voted on by the blog readers).

c. too complicated! stick to the simple three fields and you’re done.

What do you think? Anyone got any ideas for the next promotion???? Please share in the comments below.

Whooo! That’s right. I’m loving my slick, new website and passing the love to one lucky winner. Here are the details:

*Anyone can enter, whether you’re interested in a family session, children’s session, engagement session, maternity session, anytime portrait, etc.

*Entries will be accepted until Friday, October 10th.

*Winner will be notified via email Saturday, October 11th.

*Refer your friends–if the winner was referred by you, you’ll get something extra special too.

*session must take place within 30 miles of Longmont, or normal travel fees apply | for family and children’s sessions, six person maximum, otherwise normal additional fees apply | session must be redeemed by December 19th, 2008. Please schedule your session asap to reserve your date.

Hooray! The official, non-blog, Angie Wilson Photography site is up. Special thanks to my wonderful husband, Jim, who took my design sketches and did all of the back-end, programming genius work. Thank you!

I love graphic design almost as much as I love photography, so it’s been a fun project.

I will be doing a promotion soon in celebration of the site’s debut, so check back soon for details.

This weekend was the third annual, Wild West MS Walkabout–a fantastic, 3 Day | 50 Mile walk event in Fort Collins, Colorado. The walk is put together with the help of many amazing volunteers and sponsors, and raises funds to support those living with multiple sclerosis. For the past two years, Jalapeno Design has helped the Wild West MS Walkabout with their website, brochures, posters, t-shirts, etc. Feeling thus connected to the event and the people who put it together, we headed up to Fort Collins on Saturday to cheer on the walkers and volunteers working so hard to make the event such a success. I, of course, brought my camera for some photos. :)

The rest stop that we hung out at had some wonderful clowns and music providing encouragement to all of the walkers. When we first got there, James seemed a bit hesitant about the clowns.
“They’re nice clowns?” he asked me.
“Oh yeah, they’re very nice.”
…”they won’t pick me up?” James asked still unsure.

Turned out the clowns were very nice and never tried to pick James up. Phew. :)

If you’re interested in walking or volunteering in next year’s walkabout, make sure to check their website for opportunities.
