Our good friend Dough McGoldrick (affectionately known as Doug Photo) from Doug McGoldrick Wedding Photography is tired of being cooped up in Chicago’s dregs of winter! For this reason he is giving away wedding photography to one lucky couple. If you are getting married at least 500 miles away from Chicago then you could be the lucky winner!!
The rules
The wedding must take place at least 500 miles from Chicago, and you must be a totally fun couple (Doug’s rules, not mine!).
How to enter
Send your story to doug at dougphoto dot com. Include a picture of yourselves.
The judges
Doug’s two adorable daughter’s get the final say. He reads them “your story” and shows them the pictures and they select a winner!
What you Win
8 hours of coverage from Doug, a disk of edited high resolution images, and an online gallery of images.
The Catch (if you can call it that)
The winner needs to cover the transportation cost to get Doug to the wedding location. Oh and you need to send your stuff in by the end of the day tomorrow, February 22nd! Now get to writing!!
This is the second year Doug is giving away wedding photography. If you want to see last years winners just click here.
Here’s a super fun picture Doug took of our clients John and Maureen a couple of January’s ago … I love this shot but you can see why he is anxious to get out of Chicago for awhile!!
