Is Your Child America's Cutest Kid?

We are participating in the National Charity Model Search to select “America’s Cutest Kid” and to raise funds for charity.

We are attending a photography seminar in March that is conducting a model search campaign. You will have the opportunity to earn the title of 'America's Cutest Kid' and receive thousands of dollars in prizes. All donations from votes will go to Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS- a non-profit organization that provides portraiture services to families whose babies will never leave the hospital), so you will be raising money for charity at the same time!

We’re looking for cute children ages 18 months to 14 years old to model for a portrait to be entered into the contest.

All sessions taking place before March 15, 2009 will be eligible. If you choose to participate, we will choose one image from your session to be submitted to the National Gallery. You will receive a free 5x7 of that image!

Finalists will be determined by online votes. Anyone may vote. Each vote is $1, and all proceeds from votes benefit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep.
Grand prize national winner will be determined from the 50 city finalists. Winners selected by photography and modeling industry experts.

If your child is selected the national winner, you’ll receive many prizes, including a $5,000 US Savings Bond and a Canon PowerShot G10 digital camera.

If you’re interested in entering your child(ren), please contact us to schedule your session! For more information about the contest, go online to www.sandypucmodels.com.

Happy New Year! (and Giving is Awesome update)

We want to wish everyone a very Happy and Healthy New Year!

Thank you to those who nominated someone for Giving is Awesome. We have chosen the winner... Congrats, Gina M. and thank you, Christine S. for nominating her! Here is Christine's entry:

Gina is a wonderful mommy of two beautiful children. She is dedicated to her family and her country. She has served in our military and has recently received orders to go to Iraq for over a year, leaving in March! This will be an extreme hardship on her family, her little ones only being 3 and 4 years old. She has helped keep the family afloat as her husband has been going to school and if she goes to Iraq, there is a huge possibility that they will not be able to keep their home. I think that this gift of photography would lift her spirit and give her a beautiful reminder of her loved ones if and when she leaves to serve our country abroad.

We cannot wait to meet Gina and give a little back to her after all she gives to our country and everyone around her.

We have also decided to give a runner-up gift...
Maria A. will be receiving a free session and $50 print credit and Kerri S. will receive a free session and $25 credit for nominating her... Thank you, Kerri! And thank you, Maria for being such a caring, giving person!

Thanks again!
