best of 2009 {birmingham, al photographer}

2009 was such a great year for Jenney McAnnally Photography! I met so many new families, met up with some kiddos from 2008 and had so much fun every step of the way. As a thank you to all my wonderful clients, we're going to have a fun contest. I've picked my favorite image from each session and your job is choose your favorite from the entire year. Tough job, I know! The winning image will earn that client a free 11x14 print and one random commenter will win a free session (valid from January 2010 til June 2010.) How's that for a Happy New Year? =)

Here are the details:
1. Post a comment here telling me your favorite image #. You have until Saturday, January 9 at midnight CST to post a comment. Please only one comment per person and comments will not be visible until the contest is over. {Yes, you may vote for your own little sweetie.}
2. The winning image gets a free 11x14 print.
3. From everyone who posts a comment, I'll draw one random person to win a FREE session from JMP in the Birmingham area (valid Jan. - June.)

So tell your families and friends to come vote for their favorite image!!!

Creating Memories said...

I vote for #13

Angela said...

hard decision between 2 and 15 but I vote for #2.

WOW....you're totally awesome Jenney.......
what a fun contest!

Becki said...

Of course my favorite one is #8...but if we can't vote for our own my next choice would be #2

Melissa Wells said...

This is so hard they are all so cute Jenney! I love your work. My honest #8

Lelia said...

I'm so very torn between several pictures!!!! If I HAVE to choose just one, I'll go with #8!

Joy said...

Oh, Jenney, so many good ones! My favorite would have to be number 12. I just love those candy striped tights! Good luck to all the families.

Scott chooses #15.

Linh C. said...

Wow! So hard to pick just one, but I guess #5 is my favorite, with #12 as my second favorite. :)

Amy Hummel said...

My favorite is #7. Obviously, don't put me in the drawing for the free session. Unless you're willing to travel 2,000 miles to do it!

Hmmm...this is a tough one! I would have to say #7, though. I imagine a "tween" boy must be kind of difficult to photograph and I just love his expression in this one!

Heather Taylor Photography said...

I love all these!! I think #2 is my favorite. Beautiful photos, Jenney!

Unknown said...

Wow, this was really hard as they are all good. My favorite - after much thought and looking at them over and over - is #2. I love them all, though.

Susie said...

golly so many many great shots! But for some reason as I went through the photos at least a dozen times I felt drawn into number 12 several times so my vote is for number 12.

I wish good luck to all families involved.

mustangkayla said...

Wow...they all are fantastic pictures and adorable kiddos! I think #2 is my favorite!

Unknown said...

Jenney,

There's no way to choose just one. They are all so good. You amaze me with your natural talent. Keep up the good work making precious memories for these families.

Shelly K. Hein-Simmons said...

This was a tough decision, but I am going to have to go with #7 - - love the lighting, love the personality and complete joy of life caught in this photo!

pamala said...

Jamilie said...

#9 Good luck!!

Unknown said...

Of course I vote for #9!

The Boss Lady said...

Number 2 is precious!! The older brother helping his little sister! I love it!

Unknown said...

Love #9, really captures the love those two have for each other! All of the photos are wonderful!

@JoyceCasaldi said...

They are all freakin' cute, but I will say #5

Unknown said...

I have to vote for #14, he is so cute!!
I may be just a tad bit biased ;)

Beth said...

I vote for #4! His expression is TOO CUTE!! He's like "Why is this crazy lady snapping my picture!?" LOL

Valerie Bishop said...

I like #7 the best!

Kelleewynne said...

Oh, your work is wonderful. It's hard to decide, but in the end I think it's capturing the character of the little boy in #4 that won my heart. A portrait is nice to have, but the expression captured in that moment of time is priceless. Wish I lived near you to capture my boys in film! :)

abbey said...

I'm gonna vote for #7 and because I am SO indecisve, I'm gonna add a second vote for #8... love the expressions on both of those little faces ;)

Beth S said...

What a difficult choice! All of these pics are beautiful! #8 is my final pick...I think?!

naomi_m said...

I LOVE #4. What a cutie!

Donna said...

All are beautiful, but I'd have to say #2.

Mindy Miller said...

Definitely #9 - great pics!

Unknown said...

These are all great, but I really love #8.

Houston said...

I really like photo #7 it's just filled with light and life!

waleska said...

#2 :)

I live too far to win, but I like #12!

Erin said...

I vote for #12, though it was really hard to choose just one favorite! these are great photos!

avidreader said...

I vote for #12! Great capture!

Anonymous said...

these are all so great! i adore #12 with every little thing in me. however, i need to vote for #7, because it is so, so hard to get a sweet, natural smile from little boys. and that face is so genuine and happy! so, #7. but if there's a tie, #12. ;o) good luck to them all!

Sweet Peripety said...

i love number 13...totally loving all the people!

MandeeM said...

I love a few of these... so stinking cute. But I think I will have to vote for #7 because having a little one, I know how difficult it can be to get a good shot of them smiling. I love it.

Laura Fiore said...

Hi Jenney-it's laura from Studio Calico. I'm a huge fan of the shots from behind,and I absolutely love the one where you shot from behind lined up at the fence!

I can see why it's been a great year for your business...you take BEAUTIFUL photos!

Amber Ulmer said...

#12!!!! Love it!

sylv said...

Hi, saw your post on Studio Calico's forum and wanted to participate. They are all so beautiful (which makes it so very difficult to choose only one) but, my choice is pic #4, his expression is PRICELESS!!

Oh, I'm not in your area so I don't qualify for the entry for a free session.

Love2Teach said...

Jenney, #15 is my favorite! I just think it's adorable! All of your work is amazing. We really appreciate you creating such fun and beautiful images for our family!

Emily Pitts said...

Lulu said...
