 FREE EXPO PASS   |   PRESS RELEASE

After receiving many emails and messages from people wanting to buy the purebaby® Posing Guide, printed and in digital formats, I’ve decided that TODAY ONLY I will release the remaining books on the shelf for 2011!  But in doing so, I sat down and said a little prayer and asked God what good I can do with the money from the sales.  He guided me to seek out someone or a family who was in need this Holiday Season.  I really didn’t know where to start.  Then late last night, it came to me.  I contacted a client of mine with whom I had bonded with a few months back when she brought her newly adopted newborn baby to me to photograph him the first few days after birth.  I felt she would be a great person to get me in contact with someone who needed a little help at this time.  She herself, also said a prayer asking God to direct her to the right family.  You see at first, she had someone else in mind, but God directed her elsewhere.  Not that the other person isn’t as deserving, but for some reason, God directed her otherwise.  This just shows how God works in our lives.  It’s not OUR plan, but HIS.  I don’t know why God led her to this family, but HE has.  I have yet to meet them, but I know now what He wants me to do.

So without further ado, I am putting the remaining printed books in the store TODAY ONLY.  There are only a few books left for 2011, so you’ll want to hurry!  If you aren’t quick enough to get one, the digital book will be in the store as well, TODAY ONLY.

ALL PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF THE BOOKS TODAY WILL BE DONATED TO THE FAMILY IN NEED

This week’s Featured Sponsor Vendor is ADORABLE PROPS!

Meg is one of the purebaby™ Newborn Workshop Sponsors who graciously donates her hats as Giveaways!   Her designs are gorgeous and made of the softest hand-spum merino yarns ranging from soft muted colors, to rich and vibrant!  Every hat fits perfectly on a newborn’s tiny head and are so easy to care for!

“Two beautiful things influenced my decision to open my shop “Adorable Props”on Etsy: the love of babies, specifically newborns and the gorgeous newborn portaiture that has become so popular in recent years, and the incredible hand spun yarns created by amazing fiber artists. I admire both these types of art.  I enjoy the colours and textures of the yarn, especially because each is hand made and one of a kind. So many products that are sold these days are just cheaply made and mass produced, and so it’s refreshing to see things that are made by hand, slowly and carefully, one at a time.”

RULES

The ADORABLE PROPS Giveaway starts today, October 23, 2011 and will end on Friday, October 28, 2011 at midnight PDT.

You can have up to TWO entries by completing both options below.

The winner will be selected by a random number generator and announced here on the blog on Sunday, October 30, 2011.

Winners will have 24 hours to claim their prize, so make sure you come back here to see if you are a winner!

THREE winners will be chosen & will each win one of the ADORABLE HATS shown here!

Email Robin at long.robin@comcast.net to claim your prize!

If the winners do not notify Robin within 24 hours, another winner will be drawn.

Entry #1 – Simply “Like”  ADORABLE PROPS fan page on Facebook and come back to this post and leave a comment.

Entry #2 |  Bonus – Visit  NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER ROBIN LONG on Facebook and “Like” me and come back to this post and leave a comment.

“When knitting hats I get to combine these forms of expression in the photographs of newborns who wear these hats, and in the hand spun yarn from which the hats are made. The designs are intentionally kept simple yet elegant, to permit the focus to remain with the baby. The hats add an accent of colour and texture to increase interest ever so slightly, and to bring together the background color and the subject, as the eye of the viewer seeks out the matching or contrasting colors. As well as, and perhaps most importantly, I hope each hat makes the beautiful newborn just that tiny bit more “adorable”.
