		<title>Contest Time - Vote to win a free shoot!</title>
		<link>http://www.mistyalger.com/blog/index.php?entry=entry091231-214718</link>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve been wanting to do something fun for my clients and I just came across another photographer&#039;s blog who is doing this and thought to myself, that&#039;s it!<br /><br />So, I&#039;m running a contest.  I&#039;m going to post my favorite pictures from the last year and YOU are going to vote!  All you have to do is leave a comment with the number of your favorite picture.  The winning image will receive a FREE shoot including the disk of images and copyright release sometime during 2010.  Not only that, but I will use random.org to draw a name from the people commenting and one lucky person will also win a FREE shoot for yourself or somebody you know in the greater Spokane area during 2010!  (I travel to Walla Walla and Seattle on a regular basis, so you can win if you live in either of those spot too.)<br /><br />Feel free to spread the word amongst your family/friends to get votes!  Please limit it to one vote per person.  Voting will end on Fri, Jan 8th at 11:59 PM.  Be sure to check back for the winners next week!<br /><br />I had to limit the choices a little, so without further ado, here are some of the best from 2009!<br /><br /><center>#1 - Gas Station Vogue<br /><img src="images/BKrotzer_-_26.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#2 - Darling Diva<br /><img src="images/Baker_-_29.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#3 - Christmas Baby<br /><img src="images/Chapin_-_05.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#4 - Just the Girls<br /><img src="images/Church_-_10.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#5 - Reflections<br /><img src="images/Cunningham_-_60.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#6 - GQ Baby<br /><img src="images/EWatson_BW_-_11.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#7 - Music and Laughter<br /><img src="images/Frederickson_-_18.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#8 - Castle Kisses<br /><img src="images/Glad_-_38.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#9 - Oh The Places You&#039;ll Go<br /><img src="images/Godak_-_29.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#10 - Suburban Style<br /><img src="images/Hainsworth_-_06.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#11 - Princess Raindrop<br /><img src="images/Hanby_-_15.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#12 - Forever<br /><img src="images/Holden_Kelly_-_045.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#13 - Scrumptious<br /><img src="images/Jace_-_01.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#14 - Grand Entrances<br /><img src="images/Josh_April_-_13.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#15 - Family<br /><img src="images/Kilayko_-_10.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#16 - Sunset Silhouette<br /><img src="images/Lee_-_04.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#17 - Baby Blue Eyes<br /><img src="images/Lillian9_-_08.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#18 - Cafe Comfort<br /><img src="images/Mayfield_-_45.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#19 - Downtown<br /><img src="images/Powell_-_11.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#20 - A Mother&#039;s Love<br /><img src="images/Proudlock_BW_-_30.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#21 - I See You!<br /><img src="images/Roland_-_35.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#22 - Keep Smiling!<br /><img src="images/Simmons_-_33.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#23 - Family Fun<br /><img src="images/Spencer_BW_-_01.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#24 - You Musta Been A Beautiful Baby<br /><img src="images/TKJohnson_-_37.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />#25 - This Is So Embarrasing<br /><img src="images/Vanderlouw_-_09.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /></center><br />]]></description>

		<title>It&#039;s Christmas Card time of year!</title>
		<link>http://www.mistyalger.com/blog/index.php?entry=entry091205-142134</link>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#039;s time for Christmas Cards!  I&#039;ve been working on my own designs this year and it&#039;s been a lot of fun!  So if you like one of these it&#039;s only $5 (paypal or check is fine) and you just send me your pictures and I&#039;ll put them in the card and email you the digital file which you can then upload to Costco or wherever and just print 4x6 or 5x7 prints.  Easy peasy and much nicer on the wallet than your typical holiday cards.<br /><br />If you&#039;re interested in a custom designed card then email me an idea of color/layout and for $15 I&#039;ll make you one.<br /><br />Please send emails with pictures to <a href="mailto:mistydawnphotos@gmail.com" target="_blank" >mistydawnphotos@gmail.com</a>.  It can accept the bigger files.  Oh, and let me know if you want color or b/w pictures.  I can do some minor adjustments if needed.<br /><br />If you are one of my clients and you have a shoot scheduled in November or December a Christmas Card is included in your shoot!<br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_6.jpg" width="500" height="357" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_7.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_9.jpg" width="428" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_5.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_4.jpg" width="500" height="357" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_3.jpg" width="500" height="357" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_2.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />These next two are supposed to be funny.  Turns out you have to be fairly sarcastic to &quot;get&quot; them but I figured I&#039;d include them anyway.  If you go for one of these, it needs the right kind of picture so keep that in mind!  (for example a super cheesy picture for the &quot;fake family&quot; card...)<br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_1.jpg" width="428" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Cards_-_8.jpg" width="400" height="600" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />]]></description>

		<title>a holiday special in honor of my new look!</title>
		<link>http://www.mistyalger.com/blog/index.php?entry=entry091005-171720</link>
		<description><![CDATA[<img src="images/Cunningham_-_05.jpg" width="500" height="333" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br />I&#039;ve decided it&#039;s time for a new look so I spoke to my amazing webmaster (aka, my husband) and he agreed to help me set up a new website and a new blog.  <br /><br />So, I am no longer Misty Dawn Photography.  I&#039;m simply me.  Misty Alger - photographer.<br /><br />In honor of these fun new changes, I&#039;m offering a special for November and December.  <br /><br />For every shoot booked for November and December I&#039;m offering my biggest package for only $250.  That&#039;s all the best images from your shoot (usually 30-60 images).  I&#039;ll give them a little TLC in photoshop and burn the full size images in both color and black and white to a disk for you.  I&#039;ll include a copyright release so you can make all the prints you want forever more.<br /><br />In addition, I will design a holiday photo card with your pictures and include it on your disk.  You can print it up just like a picture and mail it to all your friends and family!<br /><br />That&#039;s 50% off my normal price of $500.<br /><br />As usual, I&#039;m only accepting 3 shoots each month, so don&#039;t hold back.  Contact me now so you can get this great deal!  <br /><br />Just click <a href="http://www.mistyalger.com/blog/contact.php" >Contact Misty</a> up there at the top of my blog to leave me a note or schedule a shoot!]]></description>
