It’s that time of year again: our Mother’s Day photo contest! We want to see the best photos you have of Moms and their kids.

The photo contest is open to both American Adoptions birth and adoptive mothers. As always, the winners of the photo contest will be announced just before Mother’s Day and will be featured on our blog and social media accounts!

Here’s how to enter:

  1. Email your favorite photo of you and your child(ren) that shows your favorite Mom adoption moment to editors@americanadoptions.com. (One photo per family, please!)
  2. Title your email as “Photo Contest.”
  3. In the body of the email, please include your name and your children’s name(s). You can also include a description of the photo. (Last names will not be published.)

Submissions for the Mother’s Day Photo Contest are due by 5 p.m. CST on Friday, April 29.

The winners of the contest will be selected by you! Photo submissions will be posted on our Facebook page once the deadline closes, where you, your friends and your family can vote for your favorite photo with a Like. Keep in mind: Comments and shares will not be counted, so make sure to direct your voters to the original photo to tally their Like.

Voting will close at 5 p.m. CST on Friday, May 6. Winners will be announced on our blog on Saturday, May 7. Photos will also be featured on our Instagram page and in our American Adoptions newsletter.

We can’t wait to see all of your lovely photos. Good luck!
