Hey everyone! I am leaving tomorrow for a stem cell transplant to hopefully cure me of Hodgkins Lymphoma. Due to this, I am not able to hold my usual Senior Rep/Model program this Spring. As a small replacement, I am running a senior contest. This contest is inspired by the heart of my business. I strive to really get to know my clients and develop a session that is unique to each client. So, I want to get to know you!! Here are the details you need to know in order to enter.
1. Student must be a 2011 or 2012 graduate.
2. I will take up to two students from the following schools: Kouts, Morgan Township, Washington Township, Hebron, Boone Grove, Valparaiso, Wheeler, Kankakee Valley, Chesterton, Merrillville, Andrean, Lake Central, Highland, Crown Point, Hanover Central, Hobart, Westville, Portage, South Central, North Judson, Knox, Lowell, Munster.
3. The number of prizes depends on how many schools are represented. I will only hold the contest if at least 10 schools are represented. Then, there will be one grand prize. If 15 school are represented, there will be one grand prize and one second place prize. If all 23 schools are represented, there will be one grand prize, one second place prize, and one third place prize. So – spread the news! Tell your friends from other schools!!
4. What do you have to do? Take a photograph or have someone else take a photo of you holding up a sign of your favorite quote. Please email the photo to me at holla@samanthauphold.com. Please include your name, phone #, school, year of graduation, your quote, and tell me three things about yourself. I will pick up to two students from each school. The photo does not have to be anything fancy. Feel free to be as simple or as creative as you want.
5. I will accept photos until May 5th, 2011. After May 5th, I will select the photos (again, up to two from each school). The winners will then be determined by a vote.
6. The grand prize will be a custom designed photo session and all of the digital images from the session (at least 35). This is the cd of the edited, high resolution photographs with reprinting rights. This is a $2500 value! You will have the reproduction rights to your senior photographs, forever! You can print them as much as you like, make cool products with them like, open house invites, phone covers, wall art, jewelry, etc! If 15 schools are represented in the contest, the second place winner will receive a custom designed photo session and 10 digital images. This is the same cd, but with 10 images of my choice. This is a $1025 value. If all the schools are represented, the third place winner will recieve a custom designed photo session with 3 digital images. This is a $475 value. This contest is a HUGE GIVEAWAY! Don’t miss out on this!
7. The prizes are non transferable. I reserve the right to cancel the contest at any time, for any reason. The session will be held at a mutually determined location and date. This will not be until June, 2011 but possibly after.
Here is an example of the photograph I took yesterday, with the help of my niece, Alaina. You do NOT have to submit two photos. I just really liked the full photo, but you couldn’t read the sign, so I posted two.
Obviously, this photo has a lot to do with my journey through cancer. Here are the 3 things about me.
1. I once had lunch with Billy Corgan, the lead singer of the Smashing Pumpkins.
2. I love pickles, but never eat the butt end. Yes, there is a butt end.
3. I once peed my pants in the bookmobile (in the name of friendship).
