BLOOPER Photo CONTEST!

This idea was born out of my own frustration with shooting my 2 girls. While Delia is usually game for a shoot (provided candy lies at the end of the photography rainbow), Zoe just is OVER IT. I have SUCH a passion for photography and always have. I remember submitting a really cool photo of chickens in my portfolio from high school to get into the Art program in college. It frustrates me to NO END that I cannot bring my visions to life with my own daughters!

I usually have to use other people's kids for my own shoots. So sad, but true. Luckily..my favorite model, Ziba, LOOOOOOVES to model for me! :)
Anyway.....after another failed shoot, I decided that "real" photographers must have hundreds of blooper shots, too. I want to SEE THEM! :)

I haven't laughed this hard in AGES. This is the BEST CONTEST! Here are the rules:

1. The submission deadline will be this MONDAY, JANUARY 3rd at 6 am PACIFIC TIME. THat will give the international folks just as long to enter.

2. ONE ENTRY PER PERSON. EMAIL TO zozobugbaby@gmail.com

3. You can submit a photo of ANYONE'S CHILD..not just your own (it just needs to be a blooper!).

4. I am still considering a prize, but I will announce it by the weekend. It will be GOOD!

5. There will be 2 winners. ONE of MY CHOOSING and one by MOST VOTES! The voting will begin Monday evening after all entries are posted! In order to vote, just "LIKE" the photograph you wish to vote for. You must be a fan of the ZozoBugBaby FACEBOOK page in order to vote. I can't officially require you to become a fan, due to new FAcebook rules, but....just sayin'. If you want to vote, you have to be a fan to be allowed access. LOL. Click HERE to go to the fanpage!
Get your friends and family and as many people as you can to vote for your image!

I can't WAIT to see more photos! :) Here are a few of my own to get you inspired!
