stuy180 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Hey guys, I hope you all had a great Christmas. Our baby girl Freya is 3 weeks old today, we had a photoshoot done when she was just 6 days old... We now have a chance of winning a large canvas by getting as many comments as possible on a picture of Freya. Could I ask you that have Facebook to 'Like' the Pennycress Photography page to then be able to comment on this picture: Freya Any comments would be appreciated guys! Thanks for your time & Hope you have a cracking new year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These type of thing always are, the winner will be the one that can get the most friends to comment (whether they like the pic or not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig855S Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Yeah but i bet you everyone who has been to this studio is doing the same thing, its the same story with the bonny baby competiions in the local rags, people just get their friends, and facebook "friends" to vote for their kid to win. Meaning its not about which kid is actually the best "baby model" but which parent has the most friends... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a cutest baby or baby model competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a cutest baby or baby model competition. So what is the winning criterea? Is it how many comments or best written comments?How do they decide the winner?

PeeWee Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Most comments win. So just like Craig said, the best pic doesnt win, the most friends does. It could be a pic of someones hand as long as enough friends are gathered via forums. All blatent advertising for the studio at the end of the day.Nice pic though.

matthewp1992 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 These things are all about gaining awareness of the company for free. All the people in this competition will tell there friends to comment meaning that they hear about the company. Therefore spreading the word, clever bit of advertising for a small fee of printing the canvas for the "winning" person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuy180 Posted December 27, 2010 Author Share Posted December 27, 2010 That's it... The woman has only been doing this professionally for a year, I can see that this is a clever way of advertising like you say. Hence that you have to like her page (Become a fan) before being able to comment on any of her pictures. Thanks though.. It is a cracking pic as are the rest from the shoot.

Craig855S Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 We got a family shoot done in september when our little one was only weeks old. We got a £175 voucher for £25...bargain we thought... Turned out the shoot cost £50 for just over 90 minutes, that left £125 to spend on prints from the shoot, after the shoot we were given the price list..... (lets just say £75 for a single 8x10, and 400 quid for a biggun......me and the wife pledged to get 2 8x10s and leave it at that) a week after the shoot we went to see the pictures, got to see a 5-10 minute slideshow of the pics, they were awesome...We couldnt pick just 2 so we got 10 images on a DVD (in TIFF format, perfect resolution to print in 8x10 they say but blown up larger it is still great)...cost 500 quid plus, obviously 125 quid voucher used but that still left 400 quid of finance! but the pics really are epic (£400 could probably buy a flash umbrella and a range of background things they use to combine with my dads SLR and DIY it....... ouch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wwwd Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Yeah, it's all a con most of the time. Probably could have commented on the picture though in the same time you've been moaning about it though, Craig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
