'Cutest Baby' voting under way

Advertiser Staff

We've picked our first 10 finalists for the www.HawaiiMoms.com Cutest Baby Contest, so now it's time to vote for your favorite in the first of our five weekly online contests.

Voting for the first weekly contest began Friday and will end Wednesday at midnight. You may vote for only one photo during each week's voting period.

A total of 50 finalists will be selected by judges from The Honolulu Advertiser based on this criteria: clarity of photo, composition of photo, unique portrayal of the theme, emotional impact of the image and, of course, the baby's "cuteness."

A complimentary Kahala Kids photo session will be awarded to all 50 finalists.

The second week's competition will begin Friday, with 10 new finalists. (Finalists will be notified shortly before each week's voting begins.)

Each week, the photo that receives the most votes wins a $100 Kahala Kids gift certificate. The five weekly winners will then square off for our final online vote. Along with earning bragging rights as the first HawaiiMoms.com Cutest Baby, the grand-prize winner will receive a $500 Kahala Kids gift certificate and the opportunity to appear in a future ad campaign for Kahala Kids.

Mahalo to everyone who entered the HawaiiMoms.com Cutest Baby Contest. The response to our contest was phenomenal. We received more than 1,000 adorable baby photos from parents across the Islands.
