Chris Manning Digital Photography - Review and Giveaway (Ends Jan 25)


Growing up my family all took family pictures every fall.  I love this tradition.  My husband's family does family pictures every 3 or 4 years, but I love having a recent picture all of the time.


 We hadn't had any professional family pictures done since Lily had been born!  That is one reason I was so excited to discover Chris Manning Digital Photography, and was thrilled when he agreed to photograph us!


Lily was tired.  It was cold, and she did not want to cooperate.  However, somehow Chris still managed to capture shots without her crying and some where she actually looks pleasant.


 Chris was great with kids.  He was patient and knew of some great locations for us to try.  He asked exactly what we were looking for so he could tailor the picture to our likes, which I loved.


If you're looking for family pictures in Utah County, I highly recommend Chris.

So...do you want to win a photography package of your very own?!  Who wouldn't, right?
1 lucky winner will receive a 2 hour family session with a $25 print credit, and a free 16x20 print!
