Because YOU deserve it.

So I recently ran my 700 fan giveaway. I love doing those. Not only are they fun, but I generally meet a lot of new and pretty awesome people because of it. There are so many benefits to it. I always try to keep my giveaways as fair as possible so that everyone who has become a fan, has a chance to win. But I also find that sometimes I want to give a little extra... So I decided to come up with something a little extra special. 

So, here is how this will work. I want to do one pro bono birth (at home or in hospital) {or in-hospital newborn if labor leads to a c-section} to a much deserving Mom-to-be.  I want you to nominate someone you know for this beautiful gift. I want this to go to someone who will truly cherish the value of this opportunity.

They must be planning on giving birth within 15 miles of Salem/Silverton - I ask that they are hoping for a vaginal birth, and be willing to have me in the room to capture this momentous time. 

Here is how it will work. 

You can nominate up to TWO Momma's {who are due to have their baby no later than July 31st 2014} and their families. You can nominate yourself.

What to include in the nomination? 

Include a photograph, doesn't need to be professional, and a description of why you believe they deserve this gift. Please be sure to include the details of the birth (due date, current plans) if you know them. If not, no worries, we will just have to chat with the Momma herself. :)

Please send the nominations to me either via Facebook,  or e-mail (threerosesphotography@live.com).

So... let the nominations begin! 

Nominations will close in one week. January 21st 2014 at 9pm PST.  Once closed, I will then create an album on Facebook for people to "like" their favorite story and photograph. People will be allowed to vote as many as times as they wish. I will announce the winner after one week of voting.  That means the winner will be announced on January 28th 2014. 

Good luck!!
