Mama Focus

043008_600-1.jpg

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, we thought we’d turn our attention to the mamas in the house.

Shutter Sisters, in conjunction with the fine ladies of Mamazine are hosting the 2nd MAMA FOCUS photo contest. No more excuses ladies. We’ve been talking about this for a while and now. It’s time to get on the other side of the camera—all clicks on you. Or, if you are so inspired, you can enter a photo of a mama friend too. Like the photo above of the beautiful Keri and her gorgeous son Sam. You can enter any shot you’d like with only one exception—the main focus must be on the MAMA. Yay Mamas!

The rules and how-tos are posted on the official MAMA FOCUS page at Mamazine so click over and see how it’s done. To make it really easy to enter, we’re using a Flickr Group to keep track of all the entries so you can just submit your photos to the pool and you’re entered. That way too, we can get inspired by one another’s handiwork. We’re good like that.

mamafocus%20pic%20400.jpgAnd we’ve got prizes! Blurb has got the grand prize winner covered while the runners up will get playful bangle bracelets from Give Simple.

The contest started on Sunday, April 27 and ends Saturday, May 31. Winners will be announced Sunday, June 8.

OK Sisters, get ready, get set…

I'm subscribing to your blog (and love it!) via Google Reader for RSS but though I get the post non of the images showes up! Is this a known issue or is it just me? Maybe you could check it out? Thanks for any help. All other subscriptions show images.

Oooh. Beautiful shot. I don't know if you all do this -- but I'd love to know how you got that fantastic golden glow! Just gorgeous -- and so befitting the mood!

Thanks for the inspiration!

I absolutely am smitten with that photo of Keri and Sam. Kind of feel like I am spying on a very precious "lovey" moment :)

here is mine: http://www.flickr.com/photos/23637958@N06/2456255170/
