Spreading the love: instagram contest with Mommy Shorts and custom designed baby giftset giveaway from belle&beanzer!

we are SO so so so sooo excited to announce that we are partnering with Mommy Shorts in an instagram photo contest and the winner...? yup! the winner gets a custom designed baby gift set from belle&beanzer!!

see why we're so excited? when we held our embracing the moment photo contest last fall, it's was a non stop feel good event of pictures and families embracing the moment together.

Mommy Shorts main purpose of her instagram contest is "to create a community of instagramming parents. Parents that don't just show their kids looking picture perfect, but also to show the ups and downs of raising little terrors too." hey, our message is embracing the moment. but, let's be clear that not all moments are "perfect." in fact, in our estimation the ones we remember the most are rarely the ones that fit perfectly. Mommy Shorts wants us to find eachother and get inspired to take more creative pictures of our kids. connecting families, and capturing moments - WE. LOVE. THAT!

so, here's how...first, you can thoroughly enjoy Mommy Shorts blog post today, learn a little dark secret from my past and read all about the entry rules. which couldn't be easier and hilarious, as always.

to enter, upload a photo with a LOVE THEME to Instagram, using the hashtag #instashorts_love  and tagging @belleandbeanzer. also, and this is important, you must follow both @mommyshorts and @belleandbeanzer to win.

every Friday, Mommy Shorts will feature her four favorite photographs posted to the #instashorts_love hashtag. this way you will find some really inspiring mom and dad photographers to follow. we are already so inspired by the photographs that have been entered!

the winner of the prize will ultimately be selected at random, so it's not just only the best photogaphers that have a shot at winning. here's what you will get...



winner receives this gift set featured on Mommy Shorts very own, Harlow. I know, insanity cute, right? this baby gift set includes a romper ($44), a big love blanket ($63), a matching heart little lovie ($13) and the booties ($16)… and we're designing a one-of-a-kind graphic for the romper, JUST for this giveaway!
the contest is open internationally, and you can tag up to one image a day (keep reposting, or get creative and share a new pic daily). one winner will be announced on Friday, March 1st. that's it. see? easy!
