Hello, folks. I realize that I've been quite less predictable at posting this fall than I once was, and I wish to address this problem. I also realize that making excuses, particularly online, is quite tacky and should at all costs be avoided, however, I will break my own rule and here goes:
ONE
The main excuse for not blogging is that we were photographing quite a few family sessions, and the desired intent of said sessions is to create a portrait that would be determined suitable for greeting cards that inspire Christmas joy and cheer to the recipient. Therefore, I refrained from posting such sessions, because it would, in effect, spoil the first impression of the card if the viewer had already seen the images. Makes sense, right? So, those sessions are being saved until after Christmas, when I will release them to you like a flock of doves... Joyful and cheerful doves!
TWO
Perhaps the most important thing we wanted to say is that Jodi and I are expecting our fourth child to make his/her (we don't know yet!) arrival any day now! This is something we are quite excited about, and while the past 9 months have flown like greased lightning on a rocket ship (that's fast, by the way) we know that the big moment is peeking around the corner and we're hoping we're ready!
So lets have some fun with a:
Baby's Arrival Prediction Contest!
This could be the shortest contest we've ever run, so you'd better get on the stick! Here's the deal:
I need you to write in the comment box below your best guess at these two things:
1) Will Jodi and I have a boy, or girl?
2) Your prediction for the DATE/TIME of our childs arrival. (Jodi is due today.)
Whoever guesses the correct gender, as well as having the closest time to the actual time of birth will win a little gift from Gehman Photography.
Rules: 1) You may only guess once. Or twice. No more than 2.
2) Guesses must be entered here in the blog comment box, and you must sign your name (so we know how to get in touch with you if you win, duh!)
Have at it!
New sessions on the blog next week!
Thanks,
Rodney
