Nominate a Tween or Teen

Before getting to our latest way of rewarding special young people, we'd like to share two items with you:

1. Our prices for the remainder of 2011 have been reduced. Please visit
Livingstone Photography for up-to-date pricing.

2. For our Southern California readers, there may be a visit by us to the area this Fall. If you are interested in a session, please let us know so we can get to
work on the calendar to make sure we have time for everyone.

And now for the main purpose of this post:

Is there a local tween or teen in your life who really stands out from the crowd, is making a difference in the community, gives unselfishly of his/her time?

Livingstone Photography is looking to photograph one male and one female tween or teen who fits this description for FREE.

What do you need to do? You need to submit a 500-word nomination essay describing how wonderful and effective your special person is and how he or she is making a positive contribution to the world.

What will the winners receive? The winners will each receive a free fun and exciting, on-location photo session with Livingstone Photography! This includes a 1-2 hour session, unlimited wardrobe/style changes, and may include multiple locations (at the photographer's discretion). The winners will also receive an online viewing gallery (approximately 25 images) to view and share their pictures with family and friends. Additionally, the winners will each receive two (2) 8x10 prints of their choice. All other pictures will be available for purchase with a 30% discount.

The fine print:

  • We reserve the right to disqualify entrants if all rules are not met and reserve the right to verify all claims/contact agencies and references, responsible parties, etc...
  • Winners will be chosen based on merit/qualifications not on the quality of the essay.
