2011 Capture Your Babie Contest... How it all began...

After taking a hiatus last year (due to being sick during my pregnancy with our now 4 month old, Zachary), we are excited to launch our 4th annual Capture Your Babie Contest.

How it all began...

In 2007, having recently moved here from San Diego where I was used to photographing year round outdoors, I was bored out of my mind by the time February came around. I literally woke up one day with the idea of having a "Capture Your Babie" contest and expected 10 kids to come...3 being my own. We lived in a small townhouse and we painted our living/dining room walls crazy colors. I was shocked when 42 kids came to play. The next year, 62 came. And finally, in 2009, 122 kids came. Now, we have a bit more space in our studio. And I'm excited to paint some walls more crazy colors as well as some fun furniture pieces. January is our "get ready" month and we'll be posting some fun shots/video on Facebook of the process. Having 5 kids underfoot, I would describe my phase of life right now as a circus...and I love it! I won't bother with the ages or names...by the time January rolls around, I'm sure you'll be able to see them all on Facebook prep shots. And they'll probably be covered from head to toe with paint. And chances are, in Williamsburg, if you don't know us, you'll know someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows us!
