As you may know I did a slew of Fresh Faces shoots in February and March. It is, after all, the slow season here in the frozen northeast and what better time to add some new babies to the portfolio and try out a few new poses? And the mothers were all such good sports, bringing me their babies to photography when they weren’t even two weeks old yet! Each model got a free session and an 8X10 of their choice (or their mother’s choice – so few newborns really have an opinion on their portraits yet.) BUT, they were all so adorable and delightful I wanted to share them all with you and thought – hey! I haven’t had a contest in a while.

So.. here’s the rules:

• Vote for one baby via the comments on the original blog post (not Facebook – trying to keep track of two voting areas would make me battier than I already am).
• One vote per person, please.
• All votes/comments have to be placed in April to count.
• Voting closes on April 30th, 2010

The baby with the most votes wins a mounted 11X14 of the image in his or her blog post; if there are multiple images in the post the parents can choose which one they want. AND one random commenter on the winning baby will get a $25 gift certificate. Go forth and solicit votes from parenting boards, Facebook, family, friends, coworkers and total strangers on the streets.

Though I hope people will play fair I am not going to try to figure out if the same person has used 10 different emails and 10 different names to stuff the ballot box. You’re on the Honor System.

Here’s a quick listing of all the babes:

Baby in a Hat
Baby in a Sling
A Boy and His Mother
Sleepy Girl
Wide Awake Boy
Itty Bitty Girl
Sweet Little One
9 Baby Faces
