THE countdown has started for a very special event in the Kingfisher Shopping Centre which begins this Monday coming (March 13) and runs until Wednesday (March 22).
Yes it’s our annual Redditch Standard Baby Photo Competition.
We’re hoping that once again hundreds of bonnie babies will have their photographs taken and entered into our competition – absolutely free of charge.
Professional portrait photographer Andrea Powell will be setting up her mobile studio by The Works and Primark and she’ll be there until Wednesday, March 22 (closed Sundays).
There are two age groups – 0 to 18 months and 19 to three years – and all you have to do is take your baby along between 9.30am and 4.30pm and Andrea will take a selection of professional photographs of your child. No appointment is necessary.
After the pictures are taken you will be asked back a few days later to choose which print to enter in our competition.
And with Mother’s Day looming you will also be able to buy prints at an extremely competitive price, but you are under no obligation whatsoever to do so.
All children photographed will be given a number and then entered into the competition.
Voting will take place via our website at www.Redditchstandard.co.uk where you can click and vote for the number of your favourite – please note no child’s name will appear.
First prize in each category will be a large canvas portrait of your child plus a special gift, together worth £200 while second prize will also be a canvas portrait of your child worth £100.
Please note the judges’ decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. If voting, only one click will be counted.
Employees of Bullivant Media Ltd and their families are not eligible to enter.
