Breastfeeding Taskforce of Nevada

We're Looking for Breastfeeding Pictures! To celebrate World Breastfeeding Month - August 2009 - the Breastfeeding Task Force of Nevada is collecting pictures from breastfeeding mothers to produce a 2010 Nevada Breastfeeding Calendar. This calendar will be distributed across the state to physician offices, WIC clinics, local health departments and other sites to promote and normalize breastfeeding. Photos will include breastfeeding women and their babies from across the state of Nevada who also work outside the home.

Photography Requirements:

All entries must have a Nevada address for both the breastfeeding mother and photographer.
The photographs must portray a woman breastfeeding her baby or pumping breast milk for her baby.
The photographs must present the subjects in a positive light.
It is desired that the woman also work outside of the home, as quotes will be placed within the calendar on how the woman balances her home life and work life.
Entries are not limited to those photos taken in the current year.
All photographs must be originals and contain no copyrighted material.
All photographs received become the property of the Breastfeeding Task Force of Nevada for use in the promotion of breastfeeding or perinatal health.
A completed entry form with release signed by both the photographer and the breastfeeding mother must be included with the photograph.

To enter a possible breastfeeding photo for the 2010 calendar, email or mail the following entry form and a digital photo (submitted as an attachment or on a disk) with resolution of at least 1600 x 1200 in *jpg format to Kelly Langdon (contact information listed below).

Photos must be received by June 30, 2009 to be considered.
