Houston Wedding and Portrait Photography – Samuel Seth Photos

Last month I announced that Slick Pix Photography was running a Cutest Kid Contest for the month of October. It was based around the worlds largest social networking site, Facebook. The objective was to have people submit a photo of their kid, and the kid with the most “likes” wins a free photo session!

Well to say that the response was great is an understatement of gigantic proportions. I was overwhelmed by the number of new fans who came to vote for the contest. And for this, I thank all of you.

Well, the deadline was at 11:59:59 P.M. on October 31, 2010. At the strike of midnight the votes were tallied up and three winners were announced on the Facebook Fan Page.

And here are the winners:

In First place, with 190 votes, Baby Javi! (Photo by Gaby Hernandez)

In an extremely close second place, with 178 votes, Little Elena! (Photo by Daniel Herrera)

And in Third Place, Little Mia! (Photo by Myrna Ramirez)

The first place winner will receive: A Free Photo Shoot, along with two free 8×10 prints, enhancements and adjustments on select photos, and a free personal online gallery for sharing with friends and family, and for print ordering.

The first runner up will receive: 1/2 off A session fee, One free 8×10 Print and One free 5×7 print, and 1/2 off all other prints! You’ll also get the same great enhancements and adjustments on select photos, as well as a free online gallery for sharing and print ordering.

The Third Place winner Receives: A $50 gift certificate to use toward a photo session, one free 8×10 (included with photo session), as well as enhancements and adjustments on select photos, and a FREE Online Gallery for sharing and print ordering.

Thanks again to everyone for making this a great contest and a really, REALLY close and suspenseful finish! It was down to the wire all month between the two top contenders!
I hope everyone had a great time, and I look forward to doing another contest in the near future, so stay tuned!

Well it’s finally here people. It’s time to begin the contest!

It’s not going to be as cool or glamorous as Willy Wonka’s Golden Ticket contest, I’m not going to be dressing up in a purple suit with a matching top-hat. But I hope it causes a stir just as large 🙂

October’s Contest: The Cutest Kid

This contest is based off of the largest networking site ever, Facebook. As you can see on my Blog, if you look to the right, there’s a Facebook Fan Page window. Clicking it will take you to my Facebook Fan Page, an information page about Slick Pix Photography along with the latest posts, specials, and of course, this contest.

The way it’s going to work is this: You’re going to “Like” my Facebook page. (Liking used to be called ‘Becoming a Fan’ but they changed it to “like” recently) After you do that, (if you haven’t already) you’ll be eligible to enter your kid or kids (12 and under please) by posting a picture of them on the Slick Pix wall. They’ll go into a gallery where they’ll be voted on by the fans. Voters will need to “Like” the Slick Pix Fan Page for their vote to count.

In Facebook you’re able to “Like” a photo. The kid with the most “Likes” will win a free photo shoot, along with two free 8×10 prints, enhancements and adjustments on select photos, and a free personal online gallery for sharing with friends and family, and for print ordering.

The first runner up will receive 1/2 off a session fee, One free 8×10 Print and One free 5×7 print, and 1/2 off all other prints! You’ll also get the same great enhancements and adjustments on select photos, as well as a free online gallery for sharing and print ordering.


Third runner up gets a $50 gift certificate to use toward a photo session, one free 8×10, as well as enhancements and adjustments on select photos, and a FREE Online Gallery for sharing and print ordering.

Only one photo per kid, please. Also, since I’m based in Houston, I’d like to keep it in the Houston area. But if you’re from out of town and don’t mind driving to Houston for the photo shoot, it’s all good!

Feel free to tell your friends and family to come vote for your kid. Again, the one with the most “Likes” will win. So it’s not up to me, it’s all up to the fans! 🙂

I’ll be posting periodic reminders on Facebook to get your pics and votes in. The contest will last From the time you read this, until 11:59 P.M, October 31, 2010, and a winner will be announced soon after that. So break out those kid photos and get ’em in early to get those votes started. For a full list of rules and restrictions you can email me or message me on Facebook.

For all those without kids, don’t worry, I’m working on a random drawing featuring a giveaway for you guys in the near future.

I look forward to seeing the competition!
