QUALIFICATIONS FOR PHOTOGRAPHY
Entrants who arrive for photography in costume or wearing make-up will be disqualified with no refund. Casual, comfortable attire is encouraged for entrants. No hats or exaggerated hair bows. No exceptions as all contestants must be on equal footing. This is NOT a beauty pageant or talent show. We’re looking for kids with natural good looks and lots of personality. The child’s parent/legal guardian will be required to sign a model release form prior to the shoot.
