The Pic of the Month is picked by me...just because, sometimes based on one or more of the following criteria:
  • "Wow. You wouldn't believe what we had to do to get this shot."
  • "Wow. Did s/he really just make that face?"
  • "Wow. How flippin' adorable is this kid?"
  • "Wow. This was just a fun session all around."
The winner from each month will be featured on the blog and then entered into "Pinkle's Pic of the Year" at the end of 2011.  The Pic of the Year winner will be determined by YOU, the blogstalkers, and will receive an 11×14 canvas of their pic AND a $500 Pinkle Toes gift card toward their next session.  No purchase necessary to win.

For March's Pic of the Month I simply could not decide so we have a three-way tie (no worries...this will not lessen anyone's chances of winning Pic of the Year). The first image is from her senior portraits session and I selected it because I don't think she has any idea just how lovely she is, inside and out.  The second was from this incredible engagement session and I just had to recognize them because they endured extreme winds, 38 degree weather, and insane mud just to hang out in some flowers for a few minutes. The final image isn't technically a "March" picture, but I was really torn last month...it's probably one of my most favorite nursing images to date and I feel like it speaks volumes for the connections created between mother and baby. Congrats to all three winners!
