Halloween Costume Contest!!

Every year for fun we take pictures of the neighborhood kids all dressed up for trick or treating,  and then offer digital images to any parent that wants one.  It’s just a fun way to bring my passion for capturing the moments of our lives into the festivities. Well, this year, we’d like to take it a step further, and have a costume contest!

Here’s how it works. View the CWP Halloween gallery [ http://www.imagequix.com/photog.php?id=L9WKF99&ec=ladybug ] to vote. You must have a password to enter. each email address get 2 votes. One for your own child, naturally, and one for someone else’s child; you may not vote for the same image twice. However, you ask as many friends and family to vote as you desire! Remember, every email address gets two votes, but no duplicates….  Send the email to carri@carriwortonphoto.com marked “HALLOWEEN CONTEST” in the subject line.

Well that’s how it works…. here’s what the child with most votes wins… A FREE CHRISTMAS MINI SESSION! That’s right, a free session all decked out and ready for Christmas! receive a free digital image for making holiday Christmas cards also!

Contest will end November 15th to give the winner time to get their Christmas session in before it’s too late to get cards made and sent. Winner must redeem session before December 1st.

Good luck everyone and start voting!

Update on the Free Mini Shoots!

Well…  two mini shoots are already scheduled! one left.  who’s gonna be the lucky client????  Hurry before the opportunity passes by.

Want a free 8×10 or 5×7?

Hey everyone!  It’s drawing near to that night of trick or treat when all the cutie pie kidos come a-knocking begging for candy.  And while I’m not a big fan of Halloween, I do love cutie pie kids all dressed up to be even cuter, or scarey as the case may be.  For the last two years we’ve taken free halloween images and offered free digital images to be emailed to anyone who wants to get a pic taken,  this year will be only slightly different, cause this year I have a new set of lights!

So to prepare for the big costume night of fun, I need to practice with these new lights, which means I need models!!  I’d like over the next two weeks to give 3 mini sessions, and a free 8×10 or 5×7  for 3 lucky clients!  We are looking for children ages 8 and under to pose for a few shots,  nothing super fancy, about half hour session. You will get a free print plus a gift certificate towards your next session fee.  Hurry cause I only am offering this up until Halloween!

It’s Contest Time!!

Anyone in the Bloomington Area…  I’ll be participating in the Photography Showcase at College Mall, this Friday June 19th. The Showcase “officially” begins at noon and ends at 7pm. I’ll be having a contest with a prize package worth over $350! NO WAY?!… Yes way! But you have to enter to win, and to enter you’ve got to stop by our booth! Please come and visit, and I hope to see you there!

Has this snuck up on anyone else? Holy cow where is the year going? Well for anyone out there that is just as unprepared as I am, I have a great deal for you!

**SEPTEMBER BOOKINGS!!**

Hello August!

It is with a bit of saddness we at CWP say goodbye to July. So many changes took place we were in a bit of a whirlwind and barely even realized how fast the days were flying by! In fact, we found ourselves booked fully and some clients were unable to book in time to enjoy the July specials… well we have a solution for that! We’ve decided to EXTEND July specials into August as well! So here they are…

August Booking Special: choose ala carte products at the reduced pkg prices! This will save you about 20% off a normal ala carte purchase!

August Session Special: for every $100.00 of product purchased, receive your choice of either a free 8×10 or a free set of 40 wallets. The more you purchase the more you receive. How’s that for fun?

We still have the July – Sept “Together Forever” Family session special running. This is a fabulous christmas idea to have your  family session and give an album to a relative, or to purchase a session as a gift to give!

August Exclusive for former Clients!…. We’re having a reprint special. For only $20.00 we’ll reload your gallery online and then apply the $20.00 toward your additional print order PLUS give you an extra 10% off your total order! Now is a great time to get those additional prints Grandma has been begging for!

CALLING OUT ALL 2009 SENIORS!! We still have some openings for senior reps at area schools! Our current reps are building credits FAST and on their way to earning that great gift for 20 successful referrals! And I’m throwing out a challenge here too…  so far we have no guys in our senior rep line up! So all you current reps, here’s the challenge – be the first to refer one of your male classmates into the senior rep program and you’ll get a bonus 4 credits when we consult with them and another 4 when they book! PLUS they will receive a bonus 5 credits for being the first to book! Remember every booking gets you one step closer to that $300.00 value gift! We’ve been looking into several options… ipod anyone?
