SHOOTSAC GIVEAWAY

Hey BlissDom attendees, want to win a Shootsac? If you own a SLR camera with a couple of lenses, DO NOT miss out on this amazing opportunity!

If you want to win, but aren't exactly sure what a Shootsac is (smiles), why don't we start with an explanation from their website:
The bag is made of the finest wetsuit grade neoprene available, providing the ultimate in comfort and protection for your lenses. The Shootsac is lightweight, weighing just 7oz., and built to conform to your body and move with you. Unlike traditional bulky camera bags which transport your gear and then end up on the ground in a corner, the slim Shootsac is designed to be worn while you shoot providing quick and easy access to 3-6 lenses, flashes and other shooting necessities.
But wait, there's more! (Do I sound like an infomercial, yet?)
The bag comes with an interchangeable neoprene cover, which does two things. For those fast paced lens changing shooters, the cover keeps the glass covered so you can work cap free. The cover also does a great job of camouflaging the tell-tale bumps and bulges of a bag full of camera gear.
I've had a Shootsac for just about a year now and I can remember how excited I was to receive the adorable damask box. It was like Christmas and I couldn't wait to use it. I'm a cheater and use it to hold more than just lenses. I always keep a mirror, hair clip, chapstick, and business cards in one of the pockets. In another pocket, I keep extra CF cards, my ExpoDisc, and cell. In the third back pocket, I carry my speedlite. In the front three pockets, I carry lenses, and SOMETIMES even jam my camera body in the center.

Having said all that, the Shootsac is meant to carry lenses during a shoot and is not designed to replace camera bags. When I'm shooting, I LOVE the convenience and ease of having my lenses ON my body. And, let's be honest, the fact that there are interchangeable covers makes the Shootsac a fashion statement, too. I have three covers: Baroque, Lively, and a fun one of a kind cover that I got at their holiday trunk show and party! Holla!

So, I've got you convinced that you need one now, don't I?! Are you ready for the rules on how to enter?

You know I want whatever one YOU have. Cause, I want to be just like you when I grow up.

And to help you find me... ;) I'll be the one with the pony tail that looks like a squirrel walking around with a big HUGE camera bag cause I don't have a shoot sac.

I'll email you my ph# incase you want to play the ringing version of Marco Polo.
