Hey wonderful friends!

It is that time of year again! Maybe you thought I wouldn’t do it this year, but I feel the need now more than ever to create special memories for others. With that said, it’s time for the VALENTINE’S DAY GIVEAWAY!! The one time a year I give away a FREE portrait session. <3

This isn’t just for couples in love, it’s for everyone! This photo shoot could be headshots, a family session, a boudoir session, a friends photo shoot, whatever you want! The winner will receive a FREE portrait session by me. 🙂

At the bottom of this post you will find a box with ways to enter the Valentine’s Day Giveaway. Each type of entry has a number value. You can tweet about the contest, share it on Facebook or share it on Instagram once a day and get multiple entries from doing so. Remember to use the hashtag: #marieskerlvday2018 and tag @marieskerlphoto when you are posting.

Two years ago I added a new form of entry; “Do a Good Deed.” We are doing that again and it’s worth the most entries by far (5 per day). I really want people to take the time to do something special for someone else. Spread the love this Valentine’s season! I loved seeing the little things that people were doing to make someone smile; like “paying it forward” and buying the person behind you in line their coffee order, making a surprise dinner for a friend, leaving someone a note of encouragement, doing laundry while letting your significant other relax, donating to bottle drives, etc. so please continue to do so. Do this everyday for the most possible entry points.

The more entries you make, the more likely you are to win. The winner of the contest will be picked randomly using Rafflecopter on February 15. Entries will end at midnight on February 14th, Valentine’s Day.

Because no post can be without photos, I have included a selection of some of my favourite shots from portrait sessions taken in the last year.

Good luck you beautiful, brilliant and awesome people! Now start entering! <3

Lots of love, Marie
