Lately, I’ve been trying to enter into The Oprah Show Summer Giveaway. I mean I can feel it. A Target gift card or flat screen TV is going to be mine. I just need to find someone who’ll tweet me the word of the day…Every. Single. day!

godivalogo

Because I’m all up in winning something and craving chocolate right now I thought it would be cool to hold my own giveaway. Let’s be honest. I ain’t got Oprah’s cash. Not even close but I do have a $25 Godiva gift card to giveaway. It’s a start. And who wouldn’t want a box of truffles or a chocolate elixir from Godiva??? The gift card can be used at Godiva retail outlets and Godiva.com

To enter just leave a comment here telling me what kind of camera you shoot on or what camera/lens you’d like to get.

The winner will be chosen on Wednesday, July 15 @ 9pm HST. The winner will be chosen at random and will have 48 hours to respond to my email. If no contact is made within the 48 hours a new winner will be chosen.

Rules:

1. Offer only valid to participants living in the USA.

2. A valid email address must be entered with your post. That email address will be used to contact you on how to claim your prize.

3. Only one entry per person per day. Duplicate entries will be deleted.

Good luck everyone!

Alisa - Great timing I have, I am the first!! Don’t know that I am eligible, but I had to chance it as me and chocolate are pals, I’ve always got some time for it!

I shoot with a Canon 5D and the lens on my mind (so I don’t have to borrow taryn reid’s all the time) is the 70-200 of course!

I do live in the US, not far from you.
If my email doesn’t work, just call my mom, she’ll get a hold of me.
I will be back tomorrow…

Love the giveaway Ash! I am going to post it on my blog too!! It might bring you like 2 more people to enter–lol!

athena - I’m all over this! I bought 4 bars of Hershey’s bars today (buy 2, get 2 free at Safeway) so there’s a love affair with chocolate. I shoot with a Nikon D700 and would love to get a zoom someday (eyeing the 24-70 or 14-24). Thanks for the giveaway, I might have to do one of my own soon!

It is only 6.1 megapixels but takes clean clear crisp shots due to the lens I use.

Donna Therrien - What beautiful pictures. I use a Cannon Sureshot and have no idea what I need to use to get great shots. Any advice?…..

July 10, 2009 - 12:01 pm

Kaipo Anderson - It’s kinda ehhh embarassing to even put what kind of camera i use amongst these canon 5 shnazzy camz. Well i have a kodak schomdak 6.1 megapixel camera. I know but it still works and does it’s purpose and HEEEYYY it was “da bomb” however many years ago when i bought the “once” awesome camera. Well at least to the non talented joe schmoe wanna be photographer. Don’t be a hater!! haha…. btw awesome work on the latest photo’s and grrrrr i’m sooooo “J” with a capital letter ah huh. Kaipo

Mandy Villa - Hey Ash,

I love your blog and your work is amazing. It gives me nice break when i’m at work and it inspires me and my photography. I shoot with a Canon Digital Rebel XT (novice). I wish i had more time to explore but the little time i have to take pictures is always fun. Next on my list to get is a fisheye. Btw, because of your comments on Jasmine Star’s blog I went to check it out and I can see why you stalk it. he he love ya!

July 10, 2009 - 5:32 pm

teri - All of my photo sessions are shot with my 2for1 KODAK disposable cameras. I used to fancy the FUJI brand but found that in wasn’t as cutting edge as the KODAK. I’m very excited to try my new KODAK DDC (Digital Disposable Camera). The lady at longs said it would be in on SUNDAY. Yippy!! I’ll keep everyone posted on my results…..

mom

I love chocolate

July 13, 2009 - 1:29 pm

Leslynne - A chocolate give away…how can I resist? I shoot with a Panasonic Lumix FZ50. This is my third Lumix and I loved them all, but would love to take the big leap to the Nikon D3X!

July 13, 2009 - 6:42 pm

Teri - Well guys I promised you an update so here it goes…. Regarding the KODAK DDC can you say MIND BLOWING! So its a camera that has digital capabilities and luxuries. Now if only someone could take that idea and make it NON disposable and add more features maybe even detachable lens I mean the possiblities are endless. This is my 2nd entry. Im serious about my chocolate.

July 13, 2009 - 6:53 pm
