Let’s Do Something to Help | Contest & Charity

Just like many of you out there I have been watching the complete devastation in Haiti unfold, all the while fighting back tears, sense of hopelessness and urge to help, even if just a little. So when one of my fellow photographers launched a campaign to help Haiti, I signed up immediately! I am not able to go there and physically assist in what they need done, but I can offer some of my time, talent and knowledge to encourage others to give a little, or even a little more!

So teaming up with Pinkletoes Photography, Lyndsay Stradtner of Life in Motion Photography, and many other photographers around the world, we are going to try to do something to help. But, we need you, too! Here’s the deal:

You can win a Session with me OR a spot in my next online Workshop (for photographers)!

• This session will be photographed by me and will be held in the Fredericksburg Virginia area by the end of February 2010.
• Session choice is for up to 3 people and will last 1 hour. Winner will also receive 25 fully processed, high resolution images on DVD. Print to your heart’s content! Engagements, families, maternity and couples.
• Workshop choice will receive a spot in my Feb/March 2010 online Creative Workshop.

How to win:

• Make a MINIMUM donation of $10 to the American Red Cross Haiti Relief Fund.
• Forward a copy of your receipt to marta@martalocklear.com.
• All entries must be RECEIVED by midnight (Eastern Standard time) on January 28th.
• Winner will be drawn at random and announced on January 29th.
• You can enter as many times as you’d like, but each entry must be the minimum $10 donation.

Other details:

• Session participants must sign a model release.
• Session must be held in Fredericksburg, Va by Feb. 28th.
• If the winner does not claim his/her prize by Feb. 1st or cannot claim the prize, then another winner will be drawn.

But wait! There’s more!
