Contest rules and eligibility for winner:

• Contest winner will have attended the November 6, 2010 portrait party.  No purchase is necessary.
• The winner will be randomly selected from eligible entrants and will be announced the following Monday – November 8, 2010.
• Free session must take place between January 1, 2011 and December 31, 2011.
• Session will take place in Lincoln, Gaston, or Catawba counties.  Any session outside these counties will incur a travel fee.
• Free session will not be available for maternity or newborn sessions.
• This contest is open to new and current clients of Catherine Keene Photography.
• This prize has no monetary value.

That’s right!  $400 gets you a one hour session with Catherine Keene Photography and all proofs on disc with authorization to print (up to 8×10).  This would be a great gift to give yourself for the holidays, a great gift for someone you love, or a great way to pre-purchase a session for a future date.

Of course, a few restrictions do apply:

• All sessions must take place in one of the following counties in NC:  Lincoln, Gaston, or Catawba.
• Offer cannot be combined with any other discount or special promotion.
• Offer cannot be used on newborn or maternity sessions.
• Images will be presented on a CD with an authorization to print images up to size 8×10.  Any enlargements must be ordered through CKP at standard prices.  CKP recommends using mpix.com for your prints.  You will receive no prints with this offer.
• NC sales tax of 7.75% is added to your order at checkout.
• Offer can be used at any future date.  Once you purchase this offer, there is no time limit for your session.  Book a session at your convenience.

Fall and Holiday specials were announced in the newsletter which was sent out earlier this week.  If you did not receive it in your inbox – click {here}.  And then be sure to sign up to receive the email newsletter – you can sign up on the front page of Catherine Keene Photography – www.catherinekeene.com.  In the latest newsletter, you will discover how to receive an awesome accordion album (that make great gifts for grandparents – or a treat for yourself), a very special offer to CKP’s previous clients, and info on the specially priced Holiday Card Sessions.

That’s it for now – until next time…
