Do you have all your pictures backed up? Do you have all your importnat documents backed up? I learned this the hard way and even though I was able to recover most of my files that I lost, I would hate for anybody to go through the scare of loosing all their work, all their pictures or even all your photography tools and resources. I get a lot of emails where my fans lost all their actions because the computer crashed and even though I don’t mind resending them I want to encourage everybody to please, please, please back up your files. There are lots of ways to back up your files and one of them is to back them up online. Here is a company that I use and I love and since backing up is so so very importnat to me I wanted to pass the gift for “piece of mind”
to 3 of my fans.
So for a year you can have piece of mind that your computer is backed up!!
Here is what you have to do to enter for this giveaway:
1. Leave a comment here on my blog with your full name and email ( I hate when I pick a winner and there is no name or email that I can contact them )
2. All comments must be entered by tomorrow January 16th, 2012 8:00 CST
3. My daughter will pick the 3 lucky winners and I will announce the winner Friday January 20th, 2012
4. I will do a video of her choosing the winners, the same way I did with the lens..
This would be AMAZING! I’m always so nervous until I get things exported and on a CD
Would love the chance to win this! We have an external hard drive back up (3 of them) but if something ever happens to our house it won’t help much! Thanks for all you do!
I would love this. Thank you for always giving back to your fans. Your work is amazing

I’ve been looking at which backup company to use so this would be great!! Thank you!!
NO WAY!!! i just got a call from best buy, yesterday, that “no” they were unable to retrieve the data from my external hard drive. i just started this business in july, and if i’m trying to see the silver lining here –it’s that it could have been further down the road, losing tons of clients stuff. i have learned my lesson early (although the calls i have to make are physically making me NAUSEAUS). love you, lidia –you truly have a heart of gold.
Your generosity never ceases to amaze me!!! KEEP UP BEING AMAZING!!!!!!!!!! much love to you and yours!! Ellen
We have most of our stuff backed up…but would love to have this assurance that it’s all safe!

This would be heaven sent….about 5 years ago I lost ALL of my photos when my computer crashed, it had photos of my son from the time he was in my womb till he was 5
It hurts me not to have those pictures… Now I backup my photos on 2 externals but I am always so scared of something happening to them… I broke an external right out of the package :/
I just recently lost a whole 1TB of my childrens pictures on my external hard drive, This would be great.
!!!
what a great giveaway!! this would be fabulous to win but even if i don’t…i’ll be purchasing online backup for sure!
Lidia, your kindness is I.N.S.P.I.R.I.NG.! Thanks!

I have to say I haven’t backed up my computer almost never and of course my laptop screen crashed on me but luckily I hooked it hp to my desktop and still got my files. I should’ve learned my lesson.

Thank -you!!
This would be a great gift. I went through losing the last pictures that I had of my mom. It broke my heart. When she passed away, the pictures and videos meant the world to me. Then my computer crashed and they are gone forever.
Unfortunately, I know the feeling. This happened to me about a year ago! Fabulous giveaway. It really is heart wrenching when you lose all of your photos.
I love following your blog- and I love your actions! I’ve been teaching my 4 year old (or trying to) what it means to give back, be considerate and give to those less fortunate, your daughter is my inspiration as to the kindness I want my daughter to exude. Thank you
