Well, I warned you....my wedding photography contest is here!! And no, the title isn't a joke! I am giving away free wedding photography to one lucky couple AND some other great deals!

If you are getting married between November 1st, 2008 and November 15, 2009, and haven't booked a photographer yet, this contest is for you!

-DVD of 4x6 digital proofs of your images (edited as needed)
-Online hosting and ordering capabilities for all of your images
-A YouTube slideshow set to the song of your choice

Additional prizes will be awarded to all runners up, including print credits and/or discounts. Prizes and judging will vary based on total number of entries.

Eligibility and How To Enter

To be eligible, you must be getting married in New York or New Jersey between 11/1/2008 and 11/15/2009. Travel fees may apply for locations in excess of 40 miles from Staten Island, NY. You must not have booked a wedding photographer yet.

To enter, simply send an email to me at PiconePictures@gmail.com containing the following:
-A photo of you two together
-Some info about your wedding, including when, where, and the number of guests expected.
-Tell me why you want to win, and why you want me as your photographer.

All entries must be received by 12:00pm on 9/12/2008. All winners will be notified on or before October 1st, 2008.

Best of luck!!!

Note to all: it has come to my attention that a few brides who wanted to enter the contest would be missing the cut off by a couple of days...in light of this I have decided to extend the deadline through to the end of the popular wedding season! If you look, you'll see that I've also upped the number of second and third prize awards. Keep the entries coming!
