And the Winners are...

Wow - we said it was going to be hard to narrow down the choices from the 2nd Annual Sprouts' Model Search...it was...so, FIVE lucky sets of winners have been chosen!


Sprouts will be in touch with the winners, who you will see strutting their stuff at the Splurge Spring Fling (happening May 10th).

To see all the participants (& have the opportunity to order prints of your image), visit http://shop.prairiechild.com

I'm using a new online service...it's called SmugMug (I've heard good things about it, but let's be honest, their name is pretty darn funny too...so I had to check them out!)

To order a print, simply click "buy this print" and indicate the size & quantity you would like. I generally order Matte prints - however, the Lustre has the "pop" of gloss, without the finger prints & glare (it is, however, slightly more expensive as it is on heavier paper).

When you send in your order, I will be notified, and will review the order, complete any additional portrait retouching, and (this is the important part!), make sure the photo can be cropped to the size specified.

If you choose to purchase a 8x10, part of the image will be cropped (if you don't want any part of the image cropped, you may want to opt for the 8x12 - although frames are slightly harder to come by - but there are several places in town carrying them!)

I am offering my reprints at a special rate for the model search (but, please note that prices are in USD which is virtually at par...but...not exactly!).

Shipping "economy" takes ~2 weeks (and prices vary based on size of prints ordered - it lets you know exact shipping costs before you finalize order).

I tested out the site on my mom & my sister and they breezed through the process - however, if you do have questions, please feel free to email (erin@prairiechild.com) or call (250) 361.1602.


PS - you also have options to order Fridge magnets & download a digital file

Coming up next, a long overdue peak at "The Sproutlets!"
