| in honor of Mother’s Day |

Jennifer - Well, unfortunately, I haven't had any 'family' pictures made professionally since my son was born. It's exactly what you saw...I bring the kids, get some pics, and mom and dad are left out. I would love to have you take our family pics...we really enjoyed the one's you took of the kiddos.

Amanda Ashworth - Hi Laurie, I'd love the chance to have my families portrait taken. We have a 2 yr. old son and 10 wk old twin girls. We haven't had any photos taken of the girls since they were born and it would be nice to have all of us in a photo. I think it's wonderful that you are donating your time for this opportunity. Thanks, Amanda

Selina Jacobs - Hi Laurie, Your email definitely got my attention! I have been a secret admirer of your blog for a while now, as well as, a fan of the work you did for some friends of mine. I LOVE your style. Your work is AMAZING! I would be absolutely thrilled to have you photograph my family. My girls are 2 and 4 and we have not had a family session since the little one was born. I couldn't think of a better Mother's Day gift. So....I'll be keeping my fingers crossed! BTW, I think we're neighbors :) Selina Jacobs

Stacy Dennis - I would love to have family pictures done! We have never had them done before, but now with the birth of our brand new baby boy (born April 5), our family is complete. I would love to have some great pictures with all of us together!

Kiersten - I would love to have some family pictures taken! My husband and I are always the ones behind the camera when taking pictures of Derek. I love pictures and I love my family so the two together would the best Mother's Day gift ever.

Jenny - Well, the last time you took pictures of our family we had only 3 children. Not sure if you knew, but Jason and I are foster parents and we have had Mary since she was 4 days old. She is now one year old. It has been an emotional roller coaster, but it will be so well worth it when we get to adopt her in the summer! We would love for you to photograph our family as it becomes complete soon. Love your work! Jenny

Christina Kang - After my husband's recent close call with his accident, I realized I don't have any good pictures of my husband and son. I'd love to win a session for my 2 guys for mother's day!

Cindy - Oh, I would be so very happy if you picked me. You see I have never had any family pictures taken ever...not even when I was a little girl. I know, how sad is that?! LOL. My parents could never afford to go to a studio. Now that I have my own family, I just haven't really planned it. I'm not really photogenic to be quite honest but I would do anything to have a family portrait of my own, just once. Happy Mother's Day!

Claudia Cortez - Hi Laurie, We are new homeowners in the Grand Peninsula and have spent the last few months working on our house. It needed a lot of work since the previous owners took pretty much everything including the floors. It is slowly beginning to feel like home. I would LOVE to have a recent family picture to display. It would be like the last finishing touch after 2 long months of hard work! I've seen your work and believe you have a special talent. Thanks for this opportunity. The Cortez Family, Hector, Claudia and Sophia 2 1/2.

Courtney Beltz - Hmmmm....we have never had a family photo done and Rugby is 18 months now! I guess that would be our reason for having one done:) Courtney

tanya - Hi Laurie, what a GREAT opportunity you are giving out to a "lucky" mother out there! I am a fellow photographer in Austin who would LOVE to win a session with you. I have 5 children ages 6,6,4,2 and 3 months. We have not had a family photo taken since our newest baby was born. I recognize the importance of family photos, yet I am always the one behind the camera and never in the picture! LOL. I am a hardworking mother who homeschools & runs a photography business & would love a special session with you to capture my family. Thanks!
