Happy Thanksgiving!!!

Happy Thanksgiving, guys!!! I know this doesn't really have to do with the contest, but I just wanted to say have a great Thanksgiving! Eat lots of turkey (if you like it). Have a great long weekend.

I'll be away with my family without computers from 11/25 through 11/27, so I won't be able to contact you guys. If you email me, don't expect a response until at least mid Sunday.


Happy Thanksgiving,

Next Theme...

Okay... so who else likes Lady Antebellum?!?!?! I know I do! So that brings me to the next theme... I Run to You! I'm kind of loving that song right now... Here are the words to the chorus of the song:

This world keeps spinning faster
Into a new disaster so I run to you
I run to you baby
And when it all starts coming undone
Baby you're the only one I run to
I run to you


*By the way, Lady Antebellum is totally appropriate. No swearing or anything inappropriate.*

If you want to listen to the song, listen to it on iTunes or Youtube. Really great song. Country, really good country. As always, any questions just email me and ask. I know this theme may seem a little confusing, but really just interpret the song/words into what you think would be awesome. One thing about last time. The lighting... This is SSSOOOO important I can't even say how important it is. Pay close attention to how light everything is or how dark everything is. Last time a lot of the pictures were very cute and creative, but not quite as well lit as other rounds. Just really pay attention to it. I just want to say that Willow and Mackenzie had really nice lighting on their pictures. 

These pictures are due December 10, Saturday.

Have fun!!!

So for those of you who didn't get your pictures in, I'm sorry, you're no longer in the competition. We'll miss you.

And now for special mentions...

Jeneca with Kanani - Just plain... awesome! So much detail... very creepy. Nice job! LOVE the costumes.

Mackenzie with Lanie - So cute! I love it. The costumes are adorable!

Lilac with Kanani - Adorable! The pumpkins really add some nice detail.

Quick fact about me... well, kind of fact about me-ish... yeah, I know. Halloween was postponed in my town due to power outages and down trees and wires (not fun) to November 4, the day the pictures were due. Coincidence... oh yeah! Yeah, random I know...

READ THIS!!!!!!!!!

So out of the comments you guys came up with... the new theme is... What we're thankful for. These are due November 20. I'll try to have them up by Thanksgiving so you can all see what you guys are thankful for.

If you actually read everything in that post, wow, you have stamina (*vocab wow alert*)!

Get out and get shooting, any questions, just ask.
