I have such a hard job, ;)

All I got to say is ladies...... ENJOY!

Hotness All Around

So there are times in a MOdel's Life when he or she is given an opportunity to do a shoot with another person who is not their significant other. This can be difficult for some, but for those professionals, it is just a piece of cake. As always, had a great time with these two and the end result of the photos were "WOW"! Enjoy!

The Roof Is On Fire!!!

Every now and then some clients come to me with some ideas. I am always open to try anything. I get excited of the art I can create with what they are giving me.

This last shoot was no exception. She had several ideas that I was just super excited about!!! Little did I know this chick was going to pull off one..... wait.... I am speechless! That rarely happens. But yes, that is how awesome she did in this shoot. I had so much fun and just loved how she was so open to try my ideas as well as hers. :D Here are a few shots from this hot beauty's shoot! My All AMerican Girl Next Door ;)

I LOVE BEING A MOMMY FREE PHOTOSHOOT GIVEAWAY!

Okay ya'll, you know me and you know how I just love doing what I do! :D Mother's Day is coming up and I wanted to do a free photoshoot for one lucky Mommy!! As far as what type of photoshoot this is, you may wonder... well it is whatever the lucky mommy wants. It can be a glamorous, boudoir (sexy), pin up or anything that the mommy wants for her photoshoot! To make it even more special, this special lady will also get her hair and make up done by the very talented Sieda Jones of Make up By Lady S. I will also have two honorable mentions who will also receive a smaller prize as well. I will also be giving a special something to ALL who enter.

So what do you have to do? Simply comment below this post and let me know why you enjoy being a mommy so much. In other words, what is the best part of being a mommy. You must also include why you would like to have your photos done with Nelly Hernandez Photography (other than because it will be a free shoot if you win, LMAO). For those of you who have beautiful angels in heaven, you too are a mommy through the eyes of God and therefore you are a mommy through my eyes. You can tell us what you enjoy about Life as well as why you would like a shoot with Nelly Hernandez Photography. You can also nominate a mommy. Tell us what amazing things this mommy has done that makes her deserve this as well as why you think she should have a shoot with Nelly Hernandez. It can be as long and as short as you would like for it to be. :) You will need to leave an email where I can contact you and your name whether you are commenting anonymous or not. Giveaway is only good for Minot and surrounding areas. Must come to Minot for shoot. You must also be a Fan of my Facebook fan page.

How and who will judge this? Well because this is a different type of giveaway, I wanted it to be more personable as well. I didn't want a random program choosing something like this, at least not for this type of giveaway. Therefore, I have asked four very talented and amazing photographer friends of mine to choose the one story that touched them the most. I couldn't do it because I'd pick all of you, LOL. Where's the problem, you must say. LOL. These people are nowhere near from the Minot, ND or surrounding area. And to make things fair I will not disclose who they are until the entries submissions are closed. At that time you will have a chance to view who these wonderful human beings are and admire their work if you'd like. :)

What does the Free Photoshoot grand prize include? The grand prize will include free sitting fee (either outdoor or indoor-will have to choose one), 15 edited web formatted (with my logo and for use online on Facebook, blog, email, etc). It will also include the high resolution images (DO NOT HAVE MY LOGO) for you to print, this will be given with a copyright release. This will also include a 20% off the total order of your prints, should you decide to order them. Editing also includes removal of scars, acne, cellulite, stretch marks or any unwanted blemishes. There is no commitment to buy anything. This will also include hair and make up Sieda Jones of Make up By Lady S. You get 3 outfit changes. This is only good for the one person winning the prize and other people cannot be added to the shoot. The three honorable mentions will receive $25 off sitting fee for herself, one 11x14 print, 2-5x7's and 4-4x6's of their choice should they decide to do a shoot with me as well as 15% off their total print order ($50 minimum print order). Everyone who enters will receive $15 off their sitting fee plus 1-8x10 and 15% off their total print order. For more information on package and sitting fee details, please go to my website www.nellyhernandezphotography.com and view the Investment tab.

I will allow you all to submit your entries from today to Tuesday April the 12th @ 10pm central time. I will then close it and no more entries will be permitted. That is when the judges will decide who gets the grand prize and will also let me know who the two honorable mentions are. I will give them three days to read over the entries. The winner will be announced on Saturday April the 16th morning sometime before noon. :) Best of luck to everyone, now let's hear them stories.

Pregnant is the New Sexy....

...Or that is what this beautiful lady makes it seem like. Ughh, why oh why was I not this gorgeous when I was preggo??? LOL. I just see some of these women and it makes me want to get pregnant all over again, just to see if I can look half that sexy as they do. How in the world do they pull it off, looking so sexy with that beautiful gorgeous belly? Well, simple. They are just drop dead gorgeous beauties ravishing with the glow!

In this shoot I had the absolute pleasure of working with this dazzling, glamorous woman. She is expecting and yet is just glowing with all sorts of sexiness. I was in love with her skin and just how she can pull off that innocent look yet still be absolutely sensual. she was such a joy to talk to. I had such an amazing time. I am just so lucky to have such a wonderful job, capturing beauty in ever sense of the word. Enjoy a few shots from our shoot.

Now this is what I call a Preggers with a Glow

So many people ask me, what do you like best--maternity? newborn? family? modeling? boudoir and so on and so forth. I really have a hard time answering that because I love different things in different sessions. :D I am just lucky and blessed to absolutely Love what I do. So this past weekend I had the pleasure of doing some photoshoots for some amazingly beautiful ladies. This is just one, I will post the others hopefully tomorrow or Tuesday.

Not only was this gorgeous preggo woman absolutely beautiful and radiant, but so very sweet! I loved talking to her and chatting about nonphotography stuff. I just was hating on how amazing she looks pregnant, LOL. j/k, but yeah I am a bit jealous. LOL. I also got to give props to my beautiful and talented MUA, Mrs Sieda Jones from Make Up by Lady S who did an amazing job like always! Anyhow, here are a few shots of Ms. J, hope you enjoy!
