Snap happy as the Redditch Baby of the Year competition gets underway

Redditch Editorial 20th Mar, 2019   0

THE Redditch Standard Baby of the Year 2019 competition is up and running in the Kingfisher Shopping Centre.

Lots of beautiful babies have already had their photos taken for our annual competition and we’re hoping hundreds more will join them in our free to enter event.

Professional portrait photographer Andrea Powell has set up her mobile studio by The Works and Primark in the Kingfisher Shopping Centre and she’s there until Saturday, March 30.

There are two age groups – 0 to 18 months and 19 to three years – and all you have to do is take your baby along between 9.30am and 4.30pm (11am to 4pm on Sunday, March 24) and Andrea will take a selection of professional photographs of your child. No appointment is necessary.




After the pictures are taken you will be asked back a few days later to choose which print to enter in our competition.

Andrea will also be offering a selection of the prints to buy at an extremely competitive price, but you are under no obligation whatsoever to do so.


All children photographed will be given a number and then entered into the competition.

Voting will take place via our website at www.redditchstandard.co.uk where you can click and vote for the number of your favourite – please note no child’s name will appear.

The ten babies receiving the most votes will go through to our final, along with ten more babies selected by our independent panel of judges.

First prize in each category will be a large canvas portrait of your child plus a special gift, together worth £200, while second prize will also be a canvas portrait of your child worth £100 plus a special gift.

The judges’ decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into. If voting, only one click will be counted.

Employees of Bullivant Media Ltd and their families are not eligible to enter.
