Announcing the Winners of the IVF family photo session and files give-away!!!! {Singleton, Maitland, Newcastle, Cessnock, Hunter Valley, Newborn, Child and family photographer}

The Winners!

 

Yes you read right! WinnerS ….. I couldn’t narrow it down to just one family…. I was touched by each and every story and I wish I could have given a free session and files package to every one of the beautiful, inspirational families who shared their stories so openly in their e-mails to me. Nathan and I are about to start our IVF journey with Genea (formally Sydney IVF) and all the wonderful stories give me so much hope for our up and coming cycle.

So, I won’t make you wait any longer….. In the end, there were 3 families who I am excited to say have each won a full session and files package to capture their beautiful families  (or families to be)

  • Beck and Anthony and their beautiful little man Taylor who has at such a young age already catured the hearts of so many people. I can’t begin to tell you how many  people e-mailed in nominating this family. Those e-mails warmed my heart but when Beck herself e-mailed through I thought I just couldn’t not capture this little guy! Congratulation’s Beck and Anthony!!! I can’t wait to meet you all and capture your little man!
  •  Melissa & Brad and their soon to arrive little bundle who’s story is one that would be sure to warm the heart of anyone…. Thank you Melissa, for sharing your story with me… it is one that remind me that even when all hope is lost and every door appears to be closed…. light can be found and a path revealed that can lead you to your own little miracle. I can not wait to capture your long awaited little son or daughter!

 

  • Cass & Nathan are a couple I was lucky enough to document getting married and have stayed in contact  with ever since. They are currently on the IVF roller-coaster like Nathan (my husband) and I are. Cass’s support and friendship throughout this journey is something I couldn’t have done without and while they are (like so many) still waiting for thier very own little miracle I felt that knowing when their time comes….. the long awaited arrival will be captured for them to treasure and look back on for years to come was a great way to say thank you!

I would like to say a very big thank you to each and every family who entered the give-away……… each story gave me hope that my family may continue to grow and be blessed with another little bundle of joy one day and that IVF is our best chance of achieving a healthy pregnancy and bringing home a little brother or sister for Heath.

Give-away for one lucky IVF family – {Newborn, Maternity, Child, Infant, Baby photographer. Singleton, Newcastle, Maitland Cessnock Hunter Valley photographer

GIVE-AWAY!!!

Many of my facebook “likers” already know that Nathan (hubby) and I are about to start out first IVF cycle to try an expand our family. To celebrate this new adventure I have decided to give away a full session and files package valued at $655 to one lucky family who have suffered infertility and have with the aid of IVF grown their family.

Infertility effects 1 in 6 couples and around 2% of babies in Australia were assisted with the use of reproductive technologies like IVF. It is an emotionally draining road to be on and the treatments for infertility can be costly and so while many couples who are finally blessed with healthy pregnancy and a little bundle of joy at the end of it may not be able to afford a professional photographers services to capture the little life(s) they have been working so hard to bring into the world.

 

So, if you have been through the IVF process and would like the opportunity to have your family captured by Claire Collyer Photography. All you have to do is e-mail Claire at contact@clairecollyerphotography.com.au before February 19th explaining a little about your journey and your family. One lucky family will be given a free session and all of their fully processed files to treasure, print off with out restriction and to share with friends and family.

 

The winner will be announced on the facebook page on the 20th of February.

 

If you know any families who have been through IVF who you feel would like a professional portrait session who would otherwise be unable to afford to do so please direct them to this blog post or to the facebook page to find out more.
