2010 International Model Search Tampa finalistThe Markhams have won the Tampa market area in the 2010 International Charity Model Search and will move on to the final judging! Thank you, Jess for really marketing your shot to your friends and family and raising over $225 for Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.

This was my first year as a participating photographer with this fine organization. Voting proceeds benefit families of stillborn and terminally ill newborn babies.  The “2010 North America’s Cutest Family” will be announced on Monday, April 26th, 2010.  Wish us luck as we compete with some amazing photographers, families and final images.

Marti Newkirk is a participating photographer in the 2010 International Charity Model Search for North America’s Cutest Family this year. This charity supports the “Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep” Foundation, a non-profit organization benefiting families of stillborn and terminally ill newborns.  NBC did a story on NILMDTS a while back to help spread the word about how meaningful this is to the families.

Visit The 2010 Charity Model Search website for the complete rules and more information about the contest.

Want to Enter Your Family?

Here’s basically how it works:

1.  Book a session to have your family photos taken by a participating photographer (me!) between November 1, 2009 and April 5, 2010.

2.  Together, we will select the best photo for entry into the contest. Your entry is included with my normal session fee, so there’s no additional charge to enter!

3. Tell all of your friends and family (by email, Facebook, phone call or in person) to vote for your photo ! Votes are $1 each with all voting proceeds going to Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep.

Want to Contribute with a $1 Vote?

Skip that soda tomorrow and put your dollar toward an amazing charity. (It’s ok to give more if you can!)

Visit the Voting area.   City= Tampa Photographer=Newkirk

New Section

October 13, 2009

I’ve added this new section to the website as an easier way to keep everyone posted on new pics as I add them.  I will be going back through previous shoots to add more pix, so check back every once in a while to see the new shots!
