As promised, here is the 2nd annual Birthday Giveaway! I’m 22 today and after celebrating my 21st with everyone in blogland, I decided to do so again. Last year everyone had to leave a tip or two to enter. THIS year I made it much simpler, plus you can have 3 chances at winning if you’d like! So enter away for a shoot worth $200! Those of you who are out of town, feel free to enter too. We have ways of getting me to you..

~Bethy

PS: It has been pointed out to me that today is 08.09.10! Sweet deal!

THANK YOU for joining in on the contest! Sadly it is now closed and the winner has been announced. You can see who won here. You might notice no one comments on winner posts so if you are feeling generous, leave her a ‘congratulations’! ;D

I was interviewed by these 2 authors about feminism a while back and a few of the photos I took that day were used throughout the book. I don’t have the book, but here are a few shots I found online and at B&N! I haven’t read the book but I did glance at my article in it… and although I don’t consider myself a feminist in today’s sense of the word, I probably will never stop taking pictures-God and my family will always come first! ;D

The book is called Girldrive, Criss-Crossing America, Redefining Feminism by Nona Willis Aronowitz & Emma Bee Bernstein.

Available on Amazon too:

I thought I’d share a recent publish with some of my photos! Actually, it’s been out for almost a year now but we all know how prompt I am with blogging…

The book is Click, The Ultimate Guide for Generation Now and is published by Amphoto Books. You can get a copy online or at Urban Outfitters- where the first 3 photos are taken! ;D

^The picture of legs was with my first digital point & shoot…I put it on timer and ran down the path and posed!

^ Gracey with one of the first pictures taken with my first DSLR. She has since gotten more teeth in!

Bethy: Thanks! :D And Jennica- yep they contacted me! Jan 22nd - 17:25
elizabeth: Congrats.. how awesome Jan 13th - 05:56
Michelle Guzman: Congrats!!! This is awesome!!! Jan 8th - 00:42
Lydia: How cool! Congratulations! Jan 8th - 00:40
Jennica Wallis: WOW! That\'s such a HUGE accomplishment! I\'m hoping to work towards that someday. Did they contact you about putting your images in the book? Thanks for sharing. :) Jan 7th - 12:54
