Best of 2014 | Best of Bergen County Photography
It is January and you know what that means? It means that is time for one of my favorite ‘business’ traditions – Live Love Laugh Photo’s annual “Best of the Year” Contest! This is my SIXTH year holding the contest (you can see Best of 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010 and 2009) and every year clients tell me how much they love it. I had over SEVENTY (!) sessions this year and took thousands pictures that I loved. As you can imagine, selecting images for this contest was not easy (it was almost like having to choose a favorite child!) but eventually I was able to narrow them down to the top 30. Now it is up to you to decide which image gets the title of the Image of the Year at Live Love Laugh Photos – and the grand prize that goes along with it:)
There will be THREE winners:
1) The image with the most votes wins (to vote use the poll below). The winner will receive a 16×24 gallery wrapped canvas of the winning image valued at $500.
2) The Runner up will receive a $250 gift certificate to be used towards a Simplicity or a Signature session in 2015.
3) One random voter will receive a winter mini session valued at $300 FOR FREE! Just leave a comment on this post describing why YOU want to win a session and you will be entered in the drawing! If you win, you can keep the session for yourself or give it away to a friend.
Bonus:
Everyone is a winner because if you book a new Simplicity or Signature Session while the contest is running (by January 29) you will receive a free gift valued at $150 with your order! So if you are thinking about having a session with Live Love Laugh Photos anytime in 2015, NOW is a great time to book.
Please note:
- Voting will run for two weeks – from now till the end of day Wednesday, January 29
- I will announce the winners on my blog on Thursday, January 30
- Please keep things fair – one vote per household – IP addresses will be monitored
- I reserve the right to disqualify entries or terminate/modify contest if necessary
And now, without further ado, I present to you my favorite images of 2014! Check out the finalists, cast your vote (using radio buttons below all images) and leave a comment for the free session drawing.

Love the mommy and me picture
My beautiful daughter and family 🙂
Would love to win mini winter session. My husband and I are first time foster parents. We have a beautiful baby boy who has been with us since he was 4 days old (now 3 months old). We have no idea how long he will be with us so having a professional photo shoot will help keep our memories of this precious ‘borrowed’ time close to our hearts.
Beautiful pictures. #13 Mommy and Me was taken about 11 months after little Lindsay received a heart transplant which saved her life. She spent a long 11 months in a hospital as a very sick little girl, having many difficulties along the way. All along her parents remained by her side, having to leave their twin girls under the care of family members, afraid to leave Lindsay’s side. Winning would be a huge celebration of her life and the unconsitonal love of her parents and the unselfish act of the parents who had to say goodbye to their little girl and chose to give the gift of life to Lindsay.

I would love a mini session to capture my 3rd (and last) pregnancy and the love that my 2 little girls already have for their new sibling in my belly!! Thank you!
Your pictures are beautiful! It was difficult to choose just one favorite!
I would love to be entered for a chance to win a Winter Session. My son is turning 1 on February 1st and I have never had professional pictures taken of him. The best we’ve got are iPhone pics. Ha ha!! I’m keeping my fingers crossed! 🙂
I’m biased, but I really like “Flowers for Our Lady” 🙂
Daddy Pillow is soooo adorable.
So many beautiful shots! I was torn between Sunset, Laughter and On the Farm and picked laughter since it just made me smile 🙂
I want a mini session because Lena is THE BEST!
Beautiful pictures! I’d love to win a winter mini session – I have 2 very active little kids and we’re overdue for some family photos!
