So here are the rules:

All you need to do is leave a comment at the bottom of this post.  Then pass on this blog link to at least two of your friends or family. You are welcome to send it to more than two, but only the first two to leave a comment will be eligible for the giveaway. Those two people that you send the link to will then return the love with a comment and acknowledge the person that sent the email in the comment.  You must live within a 30 minute radius of the Lambertville/Toledo area or be willing to make the drive to be eligible for the free session since the session will occur in the area.

Everyone that leaves a comment will then be put in a hat and a name will be drawn. Posting for comments will close next Friday at noon, and a name will be drawn by my daughter and the winners will be announced on Monday, April 6!   The name pulled along with the first two people they sent the email to and left a comment will get a free session.  The free session can include up to five people per family and each family will receive in addition to the free session an 8×10 print.  The session will occur on a weekend day and the date/time slots will be given at a later date.

Oh and what would a post be without some pictures….

I have recently had the privilege of working with Nili of Portland Beanie Company. She makes these FABULOUS hats…they are TDF cute and SOOO well made!  Please head on over to her Etsy Shop and take a look around!

So Happy Friday, and let’s start spreading the love!

So, onto the model search. =)

Chixie and Honey is looking for some Newborn Babies.

That’s right, brand new, fresh-into-this-world wee ones.  I need at least one baby GIRL and one baby BOY. They must be less than 2 weeks old, preferably 2-7 days old.  This helps ensure that they stay sleepy and squisy during the session.

What do YOU get out of this?  A FREE session, valued at $100!!!!   You will also get DISCOUNTED print prices! ( In exchange for the free session, you must sign a session contract. )

I have some NEW and DARLING little props perfect for a little prince or princess and I can’t wait to try them out!

I do need to schedule the sessions ASAP! Please contact Tara, at chixieandhoney@hotmail.com to schedule your little one’s session.  Please note that a typical newborn session does take approximately 2-4 hours.

And what’s a post, without some pictures

I will also be putting out a search SOON for older kiddos as well, so be on the lookout!

Also…be on the lookout in the next few days!  Lots of stuff coming up, including a model search!  Yeah!

When I put these TDF ruffle (CORD!) pants on Ava by Georgia Grace Designs she looked down and says “OH! Apple bottom jeans….boots wit da fah….” I about fell on the floor…my girl is so funny. Maybe I should start monitoring my music choices? hehehe Don’t you love the peasant top? You can get one of those from Jordan too!

Thank you to Bennetts Orchard in Lambertville, Michigan for letting me use their beautiful orchard to do this shoot. I am in absolute love with this location and these photos! Ava had a ball running around, picking up apples and chomping on a few.

Here is {one of} the latest things I got from Jordan…creater of Georgia Grace Designs I just LOVE this skirt, the patterns and colors are so vibrant and rich! I can’t wait to show you what else Jordan has in store! Check back for more this week!

PS…Blogger must be acting up again…my colors are just not nearly as vibrant on here as how they really are, it is so frustrating@

So! With that all said…

I am ecstatic to announce that Ava and myself have been selected by Josiekat’s Trunk (link on right side) to be a model and photographer from their model search! Whoo Hoo! Emily and little midge have also been selected, and we will work together. I am beyond excited and am so looking forward to doing business with them. Please check back for continued updates and pictures!
