I'm starting a new tradition here at Jennifer Lynn Photography - a "Best of the Year" contest! A photographer friend in New Jersey told me how much her clients love it, and I'd love to be able to give back to my own clients through a similar contest.

I took thousands pictures last year and had over 50 sessions, not even counting minis, and had help to narrow down all those images to the top 15. It truly was a challenge as you all have such beautiful families and kids! Now I'm leaving it up to you to decide which photo earns the title of the Image of the Year at Jennifer Lynn Photography, and the grand prize!

Contest Rules - Two Winners

1) The image with the most votes win! To vote, cast your vote using the poll link below at the bottom of this post and ‘like’ your favorite image in the ‘Best of 2016′ album on Facebook. The winner (an image with the most combined votes from the survey and Facebook) will receive a 12x18 print of the winning image in an Organic Bloom frame of their chosen style and color (valued at $275)

2) The Runner up will receive a $225 gift certificate to be used towards a family session in 2017.

3) TWO random voters will receive a FREE spring mini session valued at $125!   It can be YOU!  See below on how to enter in a drawing for a mini session.

How to Win a Studio Mini Session

There are THREE ways to win a spring mini session.  In order to increase your chances of winning you should do all of the following:

• Leave a comment on this blog post describing why YOU want to win a mini session.
• Share the ‘Best of 2016‘ album on Facebook – here is a link to it.  To do so just click on the ‘Share’ link to share it on your wall. You can write a nice comment as well:)  Just make sure you let me know that you shared the album – otherwise I won’t know that you did and you won’t be able to participate in the drawing.
• Follow Jennifer Lynn Photography on Instagram.

I will randomly select two lucky voters from across all three platforms and these guys will receive mini sessions!

Bonus:

If you book a new session for your family while the contest is running (by February 13) you will receive an additional $50 print credit! That's on top of the already existing $100 print credit! So if you are thinking about having a session with Jennifer Lynn Photography anytime in 2017, NOW is a great time to book.  Keep in mind you can hold your session anytime in 2017.

Other details:

• Voting will run till the end of day on Saturday, February 13.
• I will announce the winners on the blog on Sunday, February 14.
• I reserve the right to disqualify entries or terminate/modify contest if necessary.
• This content is not sponsored by Facebook.
