			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Our <a href="http://nordicaphotography.com/like-a-mom-mothers-day-contest/">Mothers Day Contest</a> that we&#8217;ve hosted in cooperation with <a href="http://www.toniguyblog.com/">TONI&amp;GUY</a> has drawn to a conclusion, and we have a winner! By a landslide, as a matter of fact.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Real quick though, in case you missed the premise of the contest, to win all a mother needed was 1) A photo on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography">Nordica&#8217;s Facebook Page</a> and 2) To accumulate the most &#8216;Likes&#8217; on that photo. Easy!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So, the winning mom with a very impressive 66 Likes is Sheryl Strongitharm. It seems like an online arsenal of friends and family supported her, and just like that she&#8217;s the winner.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Sheryl has won a <a href="http://www.toniguyblog.com/">TONI&amp;GUY</a> haircut and gift bag, professionally awesome makeup done by Melissa Leach and a <a href="http://nordicaphotography.com/people-photography/">photography shoot with Nordica Photography.</a> Awesome eh!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">However, the contest was a great success overall, and we thank all the friends and mothers who participated. We wish that everyone could have won, but tis life and the reality of contests. But thank you once again for &#8216;playing along&#8217;!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">If you want to see all of the awesome moms and the final standings, please have a gander at our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography" target="_blank">Facebook page</a> (click the &#8216;Photos&#8217; tab).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">But, to our winner Sheryl, congratulations! <strong>And Happy Mothers Day everyone!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Our â€œ<a href="http://nordicaphotography.com/like-a-mom-mothers-day-contest/">Like A Mom</a>â€ contest is moving right along nicely, and we thought giving a small update to the contestâ€™s progress would be a good idea.</p>
<p>In case you missed what this contest is all about, itâ€™s a dead-simple <a href="http://nordicaphotography.com/like-a-mom-mothers-day-contest/">Motherâ€™s Day contest</a> that weâ€™re doing through <a href="http://facebook.com/nordicaphotography">Nordicaâ€™s Facebook Page</a>. How the contest works is you can nominate any mother you know to win the prize pack by simply uploading a picture of her on our Facebook wall. From there, the winner is decided by the total number of â€˜Likesâ€™ that motherâ€™s photo gets. Simple eh?</p>
<p>The winning prize is a doozy if mini-makeovers get you excited. What the winner will receive is a banginâ€™ makeup job done by one of Vancouverâ€™s best makeup artists &#8211; Melissa Leach, a free haircut done by <a href="http://www.toniguyblog.com/">Toni&amp;Guy</a>, a gift basket full of goodies from <a href="http://twitter.com/toniguy">Toni&amp;Guy</a> and a photo shoot with the Nordica fellasâ€™. Not bad!</p>
<p>So, at the time of making this post, the breakdown of entrants and â€˜Likesâ€™ is as follows:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3762" title="Mothers Day Contest | Like A Mom Update photo" src="http://nordicaphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/mothers-day-makeover-like-a-mom-update.jpg" alt="Mothers Day Contest | Like A Mom Update" width="400" height="436" /></a></p>
<p>Ironically enough, that&#8217;s exactly <strong>100 Likes</strong> at the time of this post! It&#8217;d be sweet to see 100 more before Mother&#8217;s Day, but whose counting eh?</p>
<p>So, thereâ€™s still loads of time left to either enter a mom you know or Like the momâ€™s who are currently nominated. The contest will close on Motherâ€™s Day!</p>
<p>Good luck to everyone who is currently entered, and to check out the mothers and &#8216;Like&#8217; them, visit our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography">Facebook Page</a> at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography">www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography</a> and click on Photos. There you will see Fan Photos where all the lovely mom&#8217;s are!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">Alrighty folks, we&#8217;ve made a video so you know what that means: Contest time!</p>
<p>This is a Facebook-based Mother&#8217;s Day giveaway, and is called the <strong>&#8220;Like A Mom&#8221;</strong> contest. Here&#8217;s the video to explain, with text beneath if it&#8217;s not clear.</p>
<p><code> <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="853" height="505" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GB_OXlzXiIc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="853" height="505" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GB_OXlzXiIc&amp;hl=en_US&amp;fs=1&amp;" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><br />
</code></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">So, just to go over that again, any mother (so your friend if she&#8217;s a mom, your mom, it doesn&#8217;t matter) can win a haircut and $50 giftbasket from Toni &amp; Guy, makeup done by Melissa Leach, and a photoshoot with us, Nordica Photography (all carried out in Vancouver).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">To enter a mother, it&#8217;s very simple. Go to our Facebook Page (<a href="http://www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography" target="_blank">www.facebook.com/nordicaphotography</a>) and upload a picture of the mother you&#8217;re entering. Remember that you can enter as many mothers as you wish, and we encourage you to tag the mothers you enter (so we know their names!).</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Once the mother&#8217;s photo is up, &#8216;<strong>Like</strong>&#8216; her and get your friends to as well. The mother with the most &#8216;<strong>Likes</strong>&#8216; on her photo wins the prize package.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">To see all of the mothers who have been entered into the contest, you go to our Facebook Page and click the tab that says <strong>Photos</strong>. There you will see <strong>Fan Photos</strong> where the mothers photos are, and you can &#8216;<strong>Like</strong>&#8216; the mother you want to win!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">The contest closes at noon on Mothers Day and the package must be carried out in May.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">That&#8217;s it!</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">&#8212;</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Here is a bit more information about the contest sponsors, <strong>Toni &amp; Guy</strong> and <strong>Melissa Leach</strong>:</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.toniguyblog.com/">TONI&amp;GUY</a> are huge. Really huge. Basically, you can find a TONI&amp;GUY anywhere in the world, and they are leaders in hair and makeup styling. We&#8217;re cooperating with one located on Alberni Street downtown Vancouver, and they&#8217;ve donated a hair cut and a skookum gift basket for the lucky mother. Here&#8217;s a bit about them:</p>
<blockquote>
<p style="text-align: left;"><em>TONI&amp;GUY is an international icon founded over forty years ago at a single salon in London. Bruno Mascolo and his brothers under the guidance of three generations of creative talent and vision have built the <a href="http://www.toniguyblog.com/">TONI&amp;GUY</a> name into a powerful brand. TONI&amp;GUY Salons and TONI&amp;GUY Hairdressing Academyâ€™s provide more than a hairstyle; they offer a complete fashion lifestyle. The Mascolo familyâ€™s lifelong commitment is the driving force in the hairdressing industry. Through their uncompromising emphasis on education they have impacted and revolutionized the industry throughout the world.</em></p>

<p style="text-align: left;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3483" title="Like A Mom | Mothers Day Contest photo" src="http://nordicaphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/toniandguy.jpg" alt="Like A Mom | Mothers Day Contest" width="500" height="135" /></p>
<p style="text-align: left;">Here&#8217;s a bit about the lovely lady who&#8217;ll be doing the <strong>makeup</strong> at the photoshoot. Her name is <a href="http://www.melissaleachstylist.blogspot.com/">Melissa Leach</a>. We love her and here&#8217;s a bit more info about her:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><em>Melissa is known for creating beautiful hair and make-up, in all  forms.Â She has been in the industry for 10 years and has had many  opportunities to advance her career and travel around the world; Italy,  Spain, Toronto, Minneapolis, New York. She is constantly moving forward  and is always up to date with new looks.Â  She is committed to her career  at Ego LifestyleÂ Aveda Salon, and is featured as a Master Stylist and  Bridal Specialist. SheÂ has recently began working with <a href="http://nobasura.wordpress.com/">Nobasura</a>, an  agency in Vancouver, where she focuses on freelance and editorial work.  New York Fashion Week is a must for Melissa, and is often jet setting  back and forth from Van to NY. SheÂ has currently worked on ETalk Canada  and will be featured in May as a Celebrity stylist.</em></div>
