Kimberly Ann Photography is proud to be a participating photographer again in the International Charity Model Search to select North America’s Cutest kid to raise funds for the non-profit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep Foundation. (NILMDTS.org)
Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS), is a 501(C)(3) non-profit organization committed to assisting parents and families who experience the tragedy of an early infant loss. NILMDTS connects families with volunteer photographers and provides them with a professional portrait session and reproducible CD of the images of their baby at no cost to the family. For further information on NILMDTS, visit their website at www.nowilaymedowntosleep.org.
In 2009 AND 2011, Kimberly Ann took part in the search for America’s Cutest Kid and she took first, second and third place in the state of Wisconsin. There was an overwhelming response to this contest and together, in the last few years, the contest featured over 2,600 model’s and raised over $200,000 for the NILMDTS organization.
Model Search Special:
There is a $35 entrance fee per child for sessions held at my studio or at a local outdoor setting of your choice (travel fees may apply if out of the area) These photo sessions include a 30 minute model session and one image submitted to the international gallery with the option to purchase additional portraits of your beautiful child.
Finalists will be determined by online votes. Each vote is $1 (no limit on the amount of votes you can cast), and all proceeds from votes benefit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS.org).
The top 25 vote receivers will move on to the final judging round to determine the winners for a chance at the above prizes and to win the title of Americas Cutest Kid 2012. Grand prize winner and the runners up will be determined from the 25 finalists. The winner and runners up are selected by photography experts.
