My boyfriend and I have been together for 6 years. We have truly gotten to know each other better than anyone on Earth. When we met we were both going through a difficult time in life. I am raising my three boys and he is raising his son. The boys are our life. We are looking forward to getting married very soon....





 Although we don't have a date set, we know it will be soon. We want to have a day that is special for all 6 of us and joins our two families as one. Raising four boys, ages 15, 12, 12, and 9 can be very difficult at times. My oldest son has survived a heart transplant, Hydrocephalus and Asperger's (a daily struggle). Now, one of our 12 year old sons is struggling with his own health issue. Walking with The Lord is the key to our relationship and our life. Having a beautiful wedding day with beautiful photos would be an absolutely amazing gift for all of us!

Free Wedding Bless-a-way!!! :)

So today is Cyber Monday and while everyone is having some sales I felt like giving something away!  I thought it would be cool to give away a free wedding!!!  I call it the Free Wedding Bless-A-Way and yes I did make up that word! :)

It really is better to give than receive and that is part of what Christmas is about right?!?!

So here are the "rules"....

I am looking for a couple who truly deserves free photography on their wedding day.  I would like to hear their story, how they met, why they deserve the gift.  I must be available the date of the wedding and the wedding must take place in 2013-January 2014.

You can nominate yourself or someone you know by doing the following:

1. Like my page Taken by Grace and Glory Photography.
2. Add a picture on my page's wall of the couple and give at least a short version (long version if you want) of their story and why they should be nominated.
3. Additionally, you CAN email any other details (your long story version) if you want to include more info; please email takenbygrace@hotmail.com but you must put the info on my facebook page and like my page to be entered (that way I can get ahold of you better :)

Please submit your entry for this contest by December 21st on my facebook page and finalists will be announced the following week and then voting will begin!!! :)

How do you win?  After the finalists are announced the voting will begin on my facebook page.  You can vote once a day on my facebook page until January 7th. The finalist couple with the most votes will win free wedding photography within the Tampa Bay Area or if the wedding is out of the area the couple will only need to pay for traveling fees and a hotel stay. What does this "freebie" entail.???..Well let me tell you...an ENGAGEMENT SHOOT, FULL day wedding coverage, two photographers, shared rights, all images downloaded to your computer (like a CD), access to affordable prints from a third party printing company or option to order from me, and a gallery for friends and family to view and download....WHEW!!! :)

So good luck ...can't wait to hear all the inspiring stories out there! :) But for now here are a few of my favorite wedding shots...
