<p>My LOVELY friend, <a href="http://www.leahremilletblog.com">Leah</a> (see her self portrait below), at <a href="http://www.go4prophotos.com/2010/11/huge-contest-the-about-me-page/">Go{4}ProPhotography</a> (a fabulous educational blog for photographers) is holding a very fun contest for photographers and I have been asked to be one of the judges.</p>
<p><strong>Here&#8217;s the deal:</strong> Create a SELF PORTRAIT! With that Self Portrait you can either write a creative &#8220;About Me&#8221; page (but you have to post it as a blog post as well to count here) or you can write a blog post about the experience of creating this image. Which ever way you choose to write, your Self Portrait Submission must come with a directly linked BLOG post to <a href="http://www.go4prophotos.com/2010/11/huge-contest-the-about-me-page/">Go4Pro Blog</a>. Use the linky tool on the <a href="http://www.go4prophotos.com/2010/11/huge-contest-the-about-me-page/">Go4Pro Blog</a> to show us your self portrait and link to your blog post entry.</p>
<p><strong>The Rules….</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. </strong>The linky image must be your SELF PORTRAIT submission, Please name it your name or your photography business name.<strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>2. </strong>When we click the link it must take us directly to your submission blog post that has your self portrait and either your creative ‘About Me content’ or a post about what having this picture means to you.</p>
<p><strong> 3. </strong>You must reference and link <a href="http://www.go4prophotos.com/2010/11/huge-contest-the-about-me-page/">Go{4}Pro</a> in the post.</p>
<p><strong>4.</strong> All entries must be made by December 15th (you have 3 weeks!) GOOD LUCK!</p>
<p><strong>5. </strong>This contest is for anyone. Whether you have a self portrait and want to update one or need one to replace the snapshot where you cropped out your family or just don’t have one at all.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-large wp-image-1890 aligncenter" title="3Vinntage Leah" src="http://francephotography.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/3Vinntage-Leah-1024x654.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="654" /></p>
<p><strong>What will the winner of the ‘About Me Page’ self portrait contest receive?</strong></p>
<p>Since you’re doing the work to get your business looking great with your new ‘about me’ page, I wanted to offer an awesome prize pack to help your business continue to move forward and some awesome friends of mine said they wanted to contribute too…</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;">I LOOOOOOVE to shop!  If you are anything like me, you&#8217;ll be awake at 4 am on Black Friday with your boxing gloves on. Shopping on Black Friday is like a competitive sport for me. I get the FAT newspaper on Thanksgiving and go through it with a red pen. I plan out my route. I prioritize which items to get first and am prepared to take out old women and children to get those things (TOTALLY KIDDING&#8230;just checking to see if you were still reading).  Anyhoo, it&#8217;s great fun for me and then we all go out to breakfast (my FAVORITE meal of the day!) to celebrate a hard day&#8217;s work.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">So if you love to shop, I have just the thing for you&#8212;a SALE!!!  I rarely discount the <a href="http://www.francephotography.com/blog/templates/">templates from Francypants Designs</a> because I feel like you are already getting a fabulous deal on them but in the spirit of shopping and sales, all templates from <a href="http://www.francephotography.com/blog/templates">Francypants Designs</a> will be on sale for 50% off from Tuesday-Black Friday.  You don&#8217;t even need boxing gloves to get them! <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Just use coupon code: &#8220;iheartshopping&#8221; upon checkout.</span></strong></p>
