I simply cannot believe that 2012 is already here! It’s been such an amazing year for my business and my family life. My wedding season has been great and my portrait season as busy as ever. It’s been fantastic seeing how much my newborn “clientele” is growing so fast with each and every year. I simply adore newborns, so keep them coming! 😉
Each year, I post my favorite photos that I’ve taken throughout the year and I try to help “Pay It Forward” to my fabulous clients and their families! Please remember that I’ve had dozens of portrait sessions and multiple weddings to photograph. If for some reason your session or wedding didn’t make the “cut”, please don’t take it personally. I honestly love each and every one of you and I cannot wait to see you again in a future session! I spent days narrowing down to the final 15 images and even then, that was hard! I really tried to have a wide range of images to showcase to everyone to keep it fair. 😉
From now until this Wednesday, the 11th at midnight, I will be taking votes as to who is the “Viewers Choice”. Vote on your favorite image simply by commenting on this post (Facebook comments won’t be counted) as to what the image number is and of course, if you want to comment on the image itself, I’m sure the person who the image was photographed for, would love to hear why you chose their image!
Feel free to share this contest with friends, family, post to your Facebook page, tweet it, whatever you’d like to spread the word to help you win!
Now what do you win??? The “Grand Prize” winner will receive an 11×14 Gallery Wrap of the image I chose to put in this contest. There will also be a couple of “runner-up” prizes but keeping with the New Year, let’s keep it a surprise! I promise it will be worth it and you’ll LOVE it! *please note: if you already have purchased a gallery wrap of the chosen image, you may choose another image from that session or credit towards another session).
Also, feel free to head on over to my Facebook photography page: (https://www.facebook.com/TeresaSweetPhotography) and leave comment on the photos in the Favorites of 2011.
Are you ready?! Spread the word and get to voting!

Oh Teresa these are all sooooo amazing! I have to vote for #3, being a mommy of twins myself this one got me.
Lots of great images to choose from, but #3 gets my vote! Awesome work!
#11 Kissing a Marine is both romantic and artistic. It looks like it could be on the cover of a best seller. The beautiful but subdued background compliment the gorgeous couple. Their pose is fantastic and expresses their joy to be together again. Great job!
You’ve some amazing photos, but I say # 13 is by far my favorite
#13 Dog riding shotgun is my favorite.
They are all Beautiful Teresa! The one that moved me the most was #11, Kissing Marine. Great shot!
Hard to choose just one!!
I think #11 is my fave, but also love #13, 14 and 15!! haha!
vote for # 11 kissing a marine
Man this is tough because they are ALL incredible and I really have three of four favorites, but #11 gets my vote. Must be the military wife in me, but that one really gets me. Beautiful! Good luck to everyone 🙂
Great shots! My favorite is #13 – Dog Riding Shotgun. Love it!

Despite being related to #4, which I believe to be super cute, my vote is for #6…A perfect combination of strong and fragile!
Nice job Terri!
I am struggling with #4 and #9. I love them both. Can you give 1/2 a point to each for me?
Teresa you know I have to vote for my boys #9 :o) I still can not believe in all their craziness that day you managed to get a photo that made them look like little angel brothers…. You are definitely a talented lady!!! (I did like #11 alot too)
my vote is for #9 so adorable!!!
Love those boys in #9! My vote goes there!!

I like # 13. It was recommended by a friend that I take a look at your work. All photos are beautiful.
# 13 has that ‘pop’ of color. As the mommy of my own furmily, I know that my pups are always in the driver’s seat. They make my life complete and I see that in # 13.
Beautiful work!
I love the colors and composition in picture #13.
#13 dog riding shotgun is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
Im voting for #13, dog riding shot gun.

These people don’t look like their posing, and the colors make this photo come to life you think you were there taking the photo.
it was tough, a lot of great photos. i really like #2 and #9, but i can only choose one. So #9 it is. The brothers are so cute and what a smile on the older boys face. Tehy look like they like and love each other, rare for little brothers.
