PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE WORDFUL WEDNESDAY LINKY! TO ENTER THE CONTEST YOU MUST CLICK ON THE SNAPFISH TAB ABOVE!
It’s finally here!
The day we have all been waiting for!
Photo Contest time!
And, we are so lucky to have a wonderful sponsor that is all about photo memory making to help us say goodbye to the sun and the lazy, happy days by the pool we are all gonna be missing like crazy soon hello to printing all of our summer photos, making memory books, and bundling up for the winter ahead!
Yep! It’s SNAPFISH!
I was on a Snapfish sponsored panel at BlogHer’11 (yeah, we’re sorta like besties now) about women as memory makers. It was an amazing opportunity to share my love of photography with a room full of women (and one dude) who share that love with me.
Here is what you need to know about that:
- Women are largely responsible for archiving their families in photos
- Women need to make it a point to actually be in front of the camera more (your family will thank you one day)
- Snapfish has some seriously cool and creative ways to help take your memories from digital files cluttering your computer memory, to beautiful works of art that decorate your home and enhance your life
Now, meet my-most-favorite-wall-decor-item-ever…
Yep, that is #3 (top right corner) proudly displayed at the Snapfish by HP booth at BlogHer’11!
It’s in the form of a beautiful 16×16 art canvas Snapfish recently began offering customers. I am all the way in love with them!
I love that they are framed around the edges, I love their clarity, and most pleasing of all is the price point. At right around $100 they are much more accessible to families than many other options of a similar quality (my professional print lab is WAY more costly).
Convinced you want one yet?
Of course you are!
Lucky for you they are the top prize for this end of summer photo contest I am hosting!
So how do you enter?
Easy, silly!
1. Go through all of the hundreds of photos you snapped this summer. (I took around 1000, but I have a sickness)
2. Choose your favorite. Here is one of mine…
And another…
Um, and another…
I can go for days, but I’ll stop myself now.
3. If you are a blogger, post it on your blog and tell your readers all about this here photo contest (grab the super special wording down there at the bottom and be sure you use it)*.
4. Come back to pBd and add your post link to the Snapfish Contest linky by 9/25. You can find it in the tab at the top that says, you guessed it, “Snapfish Contest”. (I will be promoting the linky on Twitter and Facebook starting today so the sooner you enter the better!)
5. Be sure to tell all of your pals to leave comments for your post if they love it. The 10 posts receiving the most comments will be moved to the finals and put to the eyes of my Mom Awesome Photo Judgers** (they know pretty when they see it!). The one photo the judges love most will be awarded the GRAND PRIZE: a Snapfish photo canvas of your own (it’s a $109 value), 3 months worth of advertising right here on pBd, AND a $50 gift card to Target!

I recently ordered a photo book from Snapfish and love it. This looks like a great contest! Thanks for the info.
I love the 1st picture especially. But how can he not like ice cream??
Very cool. But just one photo? Eek!
Thanks for sharing the info. Cute photos. Dustyn doesn’t like icecream either. He says its too cold.
He he, my dude is the same, everybody is eating ice cream, he’s running away.
Wait…what?! No ice cream!?!? Well, I’ve met someone crazier…she doesn’t like Chocolate…crazy crazy world!
awesome pics, awesome contest!
Okay, I chose ONE. So, so hard to do. Thanks for hosting the contest again!
Love that first shot of #3. He’s just so full of life!
That 1st picture is awesome!!!
And I can’t believe you have a kid who doesn’t like ice cream.
Weird.
That is the equivalent of UFO sighting- KID THAT DOESN’T LIKE ICE CREAM…
Great photos, great contest. I’ll be back…
Oopsie! I am not entering the contest… could you take my link off? I thought this post was your WW.
HAHAHA… the pic of the “crazy kid who doesn’t like ice-cream” was my ABSOLUTE FAVE!!! Sooo cute!!!!
ps: my daughter somehow doesn’t like ice cream either. Beats me.
Princess Nagger echoed your sentiment with a “That’s crazy!!” about your Little Dude who doesn’t like ice cream.
I’m glad the deadline is a couple weeks out, since I have a sickness, too – and about 1000 pictures to sift through. 
I’m way too lazy to look through my photos, so I’m just gonna have to let someone like YOU win!
I’ll have to go look through my pictures….
Oooh really neat! Definitely will join…now lemme just go through the last 3 years of summer photos saved up in my camera. I’m sure there’s at least one or two good ones!
Now I have to go through all my pictures!
How can your son not like ice cream??
Hahaha, I love the “crazy person who doesn’t like ice cream” photo. Beautiful shots!
You know I loved your canvas! Totally entering…I may not be a good photographer, but my cute kids try to make up for it.
I’m so excited to judge this contest! Because I have the photo sickness too
Thanks for letting me join in on the fun! 
So weird, I can’t see the linky on your or Angie’s blog… Oh well. Here is my link for this week: http://www.mommamadeitlookeasy.com/2011/09/so-this-is-what-40-looks-like.html
I really want one of those canvases so I’m going to enter even though I know I’ll never get enough comments to vault me into the top 10… or have the best photo.
Nice photos!
Why don’t you drop by my blog and check out what I’m doing this Wednesday. I’m doing a new series called Weightloss Wednesdays where I jot down some personal tips and tricks that worked for me. It would be great if you stopped by!
Oh and Happy WW
the perfect line
Silly boy-how can he not like ice cream. Those pictures are awesome! What a fun contest.
Love the shot with hands raised above his head yelling for the whole world to see “Champion!”
I LOVE the first picture and how you beautifully captured his emotion. Beautiful!
Have a great rest of the week!
yeah… it’s hard to pick just one pic. i get ya… gorgeous photos, though! awesome!
I love how you stopped the motion on the last photo… great!
oops… I accidentally linked my entry to angie’s blog…. so I re-entered it. hmmm! yay for first days of school!
Doesn’t like ice cream? I have one who doesn’t like popcorn…
Just here for WW! Well, and of course to give you a hello! There’s no way I could pick one of those above. I love them all, truly. Sorry I am not helpful!
Super cute kiddos!
Can I chose an already posted image post and add your contest wording to enter the snapfishy thingy??
cool!
I just got batteries. There are practically no photos to prove we did anything but continue to have a pulse this summer.
Linking up.
You know, I don’t think there is a picutre of #3 that I couldn’t love. Virtually impossible.
And maybe a picture too. Ugh.
Love the pictures you posted. Thanks for hosting a ‘wordful wednesday’ again! Great way to find more blogs to obsess over!
How fun! I want to enter! So many photos and so little time… lol I’ll be back to enter soon!
Your kids are so photogenic! Amazing pics!
Already was a fan before #commenthour. Your little brown boys are soooo handsome!
What a cool contest! I just had a photo canvas made and it was bloody expensive! But I dig Snapfish and their prices are always great. Going to get my entry up asap.
BTW my fav? The boys and the ice cream. #3 has the greatest look on his face. And the joy on his brothers faces? Even more priceless.
That picture of the non-ice-cream-lover totally made me smile!
I too have the photo “sickness”! Lots of photos from the summer and tough to narrow down to a favorite. I absolutely LOVE the pic of your 3 dudes and while I’m tempted to wonder how a kid can NOT like ice cream, I get it … I have a kid who HATES peanut butter. Do you have any idea how complicated this makes lunch time?!?!
What a cool contest, love your pics as always! I have an ice cream-hater too.
