What great photos! I’m looking for a new camera and wanted to know which camera and lens did you top 24 Mom*togs use to get your photo? What program did you use to edit? What did you edit on the photo? Love to learn how other people get their great photos : )
Ohhh, these are all SO good! I wanted to send in a picture, but simply ran out of time
However, I did get my vote in for my favorite! Best of luck everyone! And Drew, I am so excited to see what you have in store for us!

What a great idea for moms to showoff there adorable child/children

My vote is for #5
First of all, Drew – kudos to you for going through all those submissions and picking only 24! Ladies, I’m so impressed with the great photos (and beautiful kiddos)! It was so hard to only get one vote.
I can’t wait to see the finished product.

#5 is a family friends son! He is such an adorable and loving little boy. Vote vote vote….
Wow! All the pictures are really good. @ Sara, My picture is #5. I shot it with a 5DMark II (which I’ve had for a little over a year). I also use an Xsi which was my very first SLR I got in 2009. I used my 24-70 f2.8. I also loved my 50mm 1.8, but it broke and now I’m just saving for the 50mm 1.4. Editing is LR2 and Photoshop CS4. I edited exposure and contrast and used an MCP sharpening action.
I took picture #3 with a Nikon D40, a 50mm 1.4 and I edited in iPhoto (it came on my computer) Someday I hope to learn how to use my PSE.
Thanks Drew, I still can’t believe mine was picked!!

Wow! I am beyond thrilled to see my photo of my girl (#21) included among these amazing images!! Thank you Drew!! I still can’t believe she’s up there!
My photo was taken with a Canon 7D, 50mm 1.8 and edited in LR & PS4. So excited to see the new blog!
Thanks ladies for sharing which camera you use. There are lots of great images taken without really expensive cameras! This will help me as I decide which camera to upgrade to. Right now I am using a Nikon D40.
This little girl has so much intensity in her eyes. Her hair texture looks
great in this photo as well. Love it! #12
#24 is soooo cute! Love the stare down with the monkey!
No.5 is “picture perfect.”
