New inspiration for the Christmas portrait contest!


In an attempt to keep you inspired and to see what you can do, I thought I would post some beautiful pictures I took this weekend given our fabulous Christmas weather!

So far I've received some very nice Christmas portraits but I want you to keep your photos coming! Christmas is only 8 days away so you should have plenty of your own inspiration by now. Come on guys...keep me in the Christmas spirit!

Honourable mention in the Christmas portrait contest!



So, these images were submitted to me by none other than the super talented, Cliff Spicer! http://www.cliffspicer.com/

What a talented photographer he is! Apparently Cliff sends out these images in his Christmas cards each year. Wow...I hope I get one this year!
Anyway, Cliff receives an honourable mention for these awesome images, only because he is a pro, and can not therefor actually enter the contest.
Thank you Cliff for sending these my way.

A Christmas Photography Contest!


Yay!!! I'm so excited! I am happy to announce that Jennifer Images is going to be running our first ever Christmas photography contest!
Every year Christmas seems to just creep up on me, and this year to help me get in to the Christmas spirit, I want all of you to help.
I want you to send me your favorite Christmas portraits. The image must feature a person and some sort of Christmas theme.
Then, on January 2nd, 2008, I will choose my ten favorite photos and post them on the blog. The contest will then be closed and no more entries will be accepted.
At this point all of my blog readers will have a chance to vote for their favorites. The winner will be announced on January 9th, 2008
The winner of this contest will receive a gift certificate to "The Keg" in the amount of $100.00


Woooo hooo!


So...start sending in your photos today. You can email your photos to me at info@jenniferimages.ca.
Please make sure they are no larger than 500px wide.
This contest is open to amature photographers only.
Happy Shooting.

Just for fun!

I saw this posted somewhere and thought it was so cute (and true, in the majority of it). So if you're up for a good little laugh, here you go!

Men and Women

Men are just happier people-- What do you expect from such simple creatures?

Your last name stays put.
The garage is all yours.
Wedding plans take care of themselves.
Chocolate is just another snack.
You can never be pregnant.
You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park.
You can wear NO shirt to a water park.
Car mechanics tell you the truth.
The world is your urinal.
You never have to drive to another petrol station toilet because this one is just too icky.
You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.
Same work, more pay.
Wrinkles add character.
Wedding dress $2000. Tux rental- $100.
People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.
The occasional well-rendered belch is practically expected.
New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.
One mood all the time.
Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.
You know stuff about tanks.
A five-day holiday requires only one suitcase.
You can open all your own jars.
You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.
If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend.
Your underwear is $9.95 for a three-pack.
Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.
You almost never have strap problems in public.
You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.
Everything on your face stays its original colour.
The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.
You only have to shave your face and neck.
You can play with toys all your life.
One wallet and one pair of shoes one colour for all seasons.
You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.
You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife.
You have freedom of choice concerning growing a moustache..
You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

No wonder men are happier.
Send this to the women who can handle it and to the men who will enjoy reading it.

NICKNAMES
If Laura, Kate and Sarah go out for lunch, they will call each other Laura, Kate and Sarah.
If Mike, Dave and John go out, they will affectionately refer to each other as Fat Boy, Godzilla and Four-eyes.

EATING OUT
When the bill arrives, Mike, Dave and John will each throw in £20, even though it's only for £32.50. None of them will have anything smaller and none will actually admit they want change back.When the girls get their bill, out come the pocket calculators.

MONEY
A man will pay £2 for a £1 item he needs. A woman will pay £1 for a £2 item that she doesn't need but it's onsale

BATHROOMS
A man has six items in his bathroom: toothbrush and toothpaste, shaving cream, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from M&S.The average number of items in the typical woman's bathroom is 337. A man would not be able to identify more than 20 of these items.ARGUMENTSA woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.CATSWomen love cats. Men say they love cats, but when women aren't looking, men kick cats.

FUTURE
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband. A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.SUCCESSA successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend. A successful woman is one who can find such a man.MARRIAGEA woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't. A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, but she does.DRESSING UPA woman will dress up to go shopping, water the plants, empty the bins, answer the phone, read a book, and get the post.A man will dress up for weddings and funerals.

NATURAL
Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed. Women somehow deteriorate during the night.

OFFSPRING
Ah, children. A woman knows all about her children. She knows about dentist appointments and romances, best friends, favourite foods, secret fears and hopes and dreams.A man is vaguely aware of some short people living in the house.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Any married man should forget his mistakes. There's no point in two people remembering the same thing.
