How Can I Win The Free Baby Photo Contest?

We originally posted this in our forums but wanted to repost it to our audience here.

There is no exact formula to winning the ContestForMoms.com Free Baby Photo Contest. However, there are several things you can do to increase your chances of winning.

Here are the guidelines you should go by:

1.) Send in a snapshot that you took of your child. If someone else took a snapshot of your child you must have their permission to enter the photo. No professional photos are allowed. We do not allow studio photos, Wal-mart, JC Penny, or similar photos. If you upload a photo like this it will not be judged.

2.) A clear photo of your child. Please try to upload a clear photo. Sometimes we receive photos that are very blurry and/or dark and it is hard to judge the photo. Please keep this in mind when choosing the photo you want to include. Up close and clear shots always work well.

3.) Be creative & have fun! This is very important to us!

We love seeing creative photos that stand out. It makes us want to put them on our main page! If it’s Christmas time, you have a better chance of winning if you send in Christmas/holiday themed photos. Think about the month, the seasons, weather, and holidays and try to incorporate that in the photos you submit each month. You can always just keep it simple and neutral too. However, it’s unlikely for your child to win if you submit a child in a bathing suit during the winter months and vice versa. Also, don’t submit photos of your children in Halloween costumes in any month other than September and October.

4.) Include the Correct information. I cannot stress this enough. We’d like to have the first name of your child.

5.) Do not under any circumstances upload a nude or even semi-nude photo of your child. It will be deleted as soon as we see it. A photo like this will not be judged in our contest.

6.) Do not submit a very small photo. If we can’t see it, we can’t judge it.

7.) Submit natural looking photos of your children.

8.) Above all look at the winners page to get an idea of what we are looking for.
