Two great prizes!

Good morning and Happy Thursday! :)
Just as promised, here is the first give away for you, out of the many to follow. Fun and useful stuff for every photographer! 

I would like to introduce you to Jessica Drossin, an extremely talented photographer with a non-traditional style. Her background in the visual arts of painting, printmaking and sculpture are a big influence in her style. She has created her own very unique textures that she's been using in her post processing. Jessica was featured on Maternal Lens several weeks ago, where she shared some of her tips on adding textures to photographs.

Jessica has released two sets of textures and she will be giving away one set of choice, to one lucky winner.


(If you are not the winner of the set of textures, you can take advantage of Jessica’s extremely reasonable pricing on her texture sets and purchase them here.)

**********

The second prize in the giveaway I am very excited about as well. The creative mind behind it is the very talented Michelle Black, a photographer who also has experience in designing templates and actions. She is most sought-after for her film-like processing of digital black and whites.

So, what is the prize? Her Business Forms Collection!

Here is what some photographers say about the forms:

"They are AMAZING. I'm really bad putting into words what I want to relay to customers. You need a form and she has it PLUS a bunch you didn't know you needed. I've been able to revamp my info to come across more professional + offer a few things I wouldn't have thought of." corrietraxler.com

"The forms are awesome! I got them a couple years ago, and they cover pretty much every situation I've run into where I need a contract! I particularly like the wording, it's professional, yet easy for clients to understand. Not total legal jargon.
Also, lots of forms to help you plan your business or plan a session.
Is it too geeky to say that I found these forms inspirational?! Because I did!" aislingphoto.com
