The Search Continues…Maple Avenue Market will Host an Evening of Family Portraits

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

Have you been to the Maple Avenue Market? It’s an amazing new market in Vienna, mam_storefront.jpgthey only sell locally grown and locally produced food. It’s like going to a farmer’s market every day of the week.

Maple Avenue Market is generously hosting two evening of family photo sessions for the Charity International Model Search and is offering 10% discount (one time purchase) at the market for anyone who signs up.


So come shop and do a photo session between 6 pm and 9 pm:

  • Tuesday, February 23
  • Tuesday, March 16
  • The $50 entrance fee includes a 30-minute mini session and the submission of one image to the contest.
  • Finalists will be determined by online votes. Each vote costs $1 (there is no limit on the amount of votes you can cast), and all proceeds from votes benefit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep (NILMDTS.org).
  • The grand prize international winner will be determined from the 52 city finalists. The winners will be selected from the finalist gallery by photography and modeling industry experts.
  • For more information, or to book a session, call us at 703-860-2222 or email Jessica at jessica@portraitplatyime.com.

      This contest is a search for the most Fabulous Family which aims to raise funds for the non-profit Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep Foundation (NILMDTS.org). The grand prize is a NEW CAR! Not to mention the great feeling that comes from supporting a worthy cause.

      *Contest open to residents of the US and Canada. For more information, visit http://sandypucmodels.com/.


        Why this photo contest?

        Why am I bonding together with photographers all over the United States and Canada to support NILMDTS? I have built Portrait Playtime around supporting organizations that put kids first. The work of NILMDTS clearly recognizes the importance of every child. The work is heartbreaking, unthinkable…but infant mortality is still a reality. I personally know at least five mothers who lost their babies at birth and I have seen some of the precious photos they took. I know what it would have meant to them if a photographer could have come to take heirloom images of their babies. So when I heard about this photo contest, I knew I had to join. Please join me and so many others to support this amazing organization.
