Archive for the ‘families’ Category

You might remember back around the holidays when I participated in a national giveaway where families were nominated for a free photography session and prints based on economic need and hardship. The emails I recieved from those who nominated the families were very hard for me to read, and made my decision extremely difficult. However, I had the pleasure of photographing Laura and her children today who were the winners from this giveaway! I hope that I helped them capture the memories that every family deserves and put a few smiles on their faces. This family deserves it. Enjoy your sneak peek!!

We had a big snow here in Indianapolis this weekend and today we decided to take Bella out in it. She seemed to enjoy it more than last year, although she preferred to be held by her Daddy. Also, the dogs are sporting their Colts jerseys to cheer on our Indianapolis Colts in the Superbowl today!! GO COLTS!

Giving Is Awesome.

You know someone. You know someone who’s experienced a tragedy, is struggling to stay afloat, is raising kids while holding down more than one job, or is volunteering selflessly despite extenuating personal circumstances. You know someone who can’t afford custom photography, but who would cherish it this holiday season. You know someone who deserves a year-round reminder of their family’s spirit, love, and beauty.

You know someone. I guarantee it.

I want to know who they are, and I want to give them the chance to experience complimentary custom photography — $750 worth, to be exact.

Oh, and the best part? The person who nominates the winner receives a free gift as well, $100 print credit!

The rules:

* You cannot nominate yourself, and the person nominated must sincerely be incapable of purchasing my services. (Being unable to make mortgage payments for a two-million-dollar-vacation-home in Paris does not qualify as sincere financial need.)

* The nominee must reside in Indiana, and within a 30 mile radius of Indianapolis. Tell me who you know, what they’re experiencing, and why they deserve my artwork. Please include a way to contact both your nominee and yourself as well.

• You must e-mail me the full story : mandy@mandyleonardsphotography.com

Nominations will be closed on December 31, 2009 at 12pm EST. The winner will be announced on New Years Day — get nominating! I can’t wait to read all of your entries!

Open your heart to someone this holiday season — and thanks for giving me the opportunity to open mine.

With love,
Mandy Leonards

I got to meet the C family this weekend for a mini session. We had planned on staying outdoors for the entire shoot, but it was very cold this weekend and we didn’t want 15 month old Riley to get sick! We managed to get a few shots outside before we moved indoors to my studio. I also could not believe how much little Riley looks like my Bella! They could be sisters! Enjoy your sneak peek, C Family!
