Winning Portraits
We at Tonya Marie Photography were just overwhelmed with the response to the Image of the Year contest. Hundreds of votes later, and lots of really sweet comments (thank you!), we have the winners.
The photograph receiving the most votes is... (drum roll please) image J. And the portraits receiving the second and third most votes are: E and B. Congratulations! You will have a message in your in-box shortly with details.
And I just can't have a blog entry without a portrait so here is a fun capture to make you smile!

9 Month Portrait
We always have fun at our portrait sessions but I especially look forward to seeing this handsome guy. I've love seeing how he changes: from a teeny tiny newborn to a determined and super quick nine month old. Plus he has the best family! Thanks again for the yummy treat we had during our break...a strawberry mousse dessert in a chocolate shell. Mmm...
Anyway, here's a quick peek. Enjoy!

I just adore this expression!

Enjoy!

A Toast To 2008
I've had a great first day in '08 and I hope you have too. My husband started the year off on the right foot by surprising me with a gift. New Year's Eve is the anniversary of our first kiss...14 years ago! And the snow here in Indiana is absolutely picture perfect so I just couldn't pass up the 0pportunity to get the kids outside for some portraits.
Coming in January: a new album (I just love it!) and the very popular image of the year contest.
