And the Best of 2009 Portrait Contest Winner is... ...the wedding portrait of Josh and Lindsey Papac!  For many days the voting was held to a very narrow margin, but the votes have been counted and I am happy to announce that entry #21, Josh and Lindsey pulled ahead with 98 votes from enthusiastic family and friends! Coming in a close second with 79 votes was #3 Laura Biere's model-icious senior portrait. Taking third place with 66 votes was the beautifully emotive image #16 Hylan and Rita Slobodkin with their grandson, Zion. Because you all showed such awesome support for these special people, we are extending the winnings! Josh and Lindsey will take home a beautiful 16x20 canvas metallic float wrap of their winning image. In second place, we are providing Laura with an 11x14 mounted print of her beautiful senior picture. In third place, we are awarding an 8x10 mounted print of the Slobodkin family. Congratulations to the top three! But wait...that's not all! We couldn't leave it at this, without acknowledging the votes received by some other special contestants!
