I had such a great response to all my contests last year that I thought it would be fun to run one every year; so I am now taking entries for Cute Kids 2010.

The winner will receive a free photo session for up to 3 children & a free 11 x 14 photo!! (Worth £60 in total)

All you have to do is send a recent photo (preferably a face shot taken within the last few months) of your children (MAX 3) to sonia@soniathorpephotography.com. Please be sure to put CONTEST in the subject line & include the following details – Your name, address, phone number & your children’s name & date of birth. (none of this information will be published just the photo.)

Photos must be sent by 31st March & on the 1st April I will post them on the blog for public voting to begin. The photo with the most votes will win the free session.

Rules

and because I can’t post without a photo would you just look at these two cuties…

I am really excited to be opening some new casting calls for 2010!! I am looking for the following -

Newborn Babies under 10 days old (So if you are due within the next 3 months get in touch)

Babies aged 3 months to 9 months

Pregnant Mums (Between 30 & 36 weeks)

The sessions will be free of charge, no prints will be included but you will be able to buy them at my current prices. I will require a signed model release from everyone who takes part to allow me to use the images for my portfolio. All sessions will take place at my home studio – please contact me for more details [sonia@soniathorpephotography.com] x

Book a session before the 14th February 2010 and get it half price!!!!

I would just like to thank everybody who nominated someone special into my Christmas Contest this year, I had lots of entries and it was so hard to choose just one special person!!! There are so many deserving people out there and I wish I could do it for all of them but the winner of my free session is *Kath Burman* nominated by her friend Emma Chambers. I don’t like to disclose personal information so you will have to believe me when I tell you that Kath is most deserving of this prize. If you read this Kath; I will be sending your prize award out in the post after Christmas and I’ll be in touch in the New Year!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS & A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!!!

You might remember I photographed my lovely sister a month or so back, well I got to go and visit and take some photos of the new arrival last week, I am sure you will all agree that she is beautiful!!!
