Grab your coffee and sit back for a moment, because there are a LOT of sneak peeks to tease you on this Weekend Wrap-Up!  The weekend was a busy one, and a beautiful one!  I can hardly believe our good luck, fall arrived late this year and we still had beautiful fall colors the first week of November here in Ohio.  Those glorious bursts of red and gold hues are nature’s finest backdrop, and there’s no wonder why everyone loves autumn for taking portraits.  I got to see some familiar faces and also meet new friends this weekend, and was reminded more than once how much I love my job and what a lucky photographer I am :)

 

In other news, because it’s the most exciting thing in the whole wide world to share and because I’m not going to get sick of sharing it any time soon….. I got ENGAGED last week!!!  Ben pulled off the best surprise ever, I said YES, and I am going to marry the man of my dreams!  Dreams really do come true y’all!  I haven’t stopped smiling since Wednesday and my cheeks are starting to hurt and people out in public are probably looking at me weird but it doesn’t even matter.  God is good!  You can see the proposal right here :)

 

And just when you think this blog post can’t get any more exciting, it’s GIVEAWAY time!!  My Facebook page reached 1,000 likes (!!!!!) and I feel like giving away some goodies.  There’s a canvas giveaway and a $25 Starbucks gift card up for grabs, here’s how to enter:

Canvas Giveaway

Any client who has had a session with CKP can enter!  Simply EMAIL me your favorite photo from our session at carlyn@carlynkphotography.com between now and this Wednesday, November 6th.  I will compile all submissions and create a photo album on my FB page on Thursday, November 7th.  Voters must “LIKE” Carlyn K Photography on Facebook as well as your photo in the album on my page, and the entry with the most likes will win a 24×30 canvas print of their favorite image.  Voting will be open until Midnight on Sunday, November 10th and the winner will be announced on next Monday’s Weekend Wrap-Up.  That’s pretty darn exciting, so narrow it down to your fave and send me those images!!

Now for some previews!  My little nephew James is not-so-little these days – we had his 18 month session this weekend!  Can hardly handle his cute face!

Lil man loooooves the library!

 I met Logan and his sister Leah on Saturday, these kiddos rock.  Chance of rain during a session?….just bring your umbrellas!

Melts my heart!

 Claire is turning 1 year old!  This lil lady had a parlor session before diving into her smash cake.
