Winners of the Search!

Ok - we have a lot of information from the 3rd Annual Sprouts Model Search to share with you today!

First of all, you can check out ALL the participants online!

We are also happy to say that FOUR of the models have been chosen
! But - as you can see, we are still missing the final model!

We simply couldn't decide, so we are putting it to a "People's Choice" pick!
Check out the models in the running & vote for your favourite one!
You can also find our Facebook Group to tell your friends about it!

And remember, one of the lucky little models will find themselves on the cover of Island Child Magazine!

Thanks again to all those who participated! We raised over $1,500 for the Victoria Hospitals Foundation Neonatal Intensive Care Unit!

Interested in Ordering Prints?
Please have a read through the FAQ below, as it might answer some questions that come up. If you ordered prints from the last model search, or the Nanaimo Baby Fair, you'll know the drill!

Can I purchase the digital file?
YES! The digital negative can be
purchased for $35 Cdn (note: price is per image). These files can be printed up to 8x10s. When you purchase the digital negative online, you will first receive a low-resolution image. I will complete the portrait finishing on the chosen file, and email the finished image to you.

Why are your prices in USD?
I haven't found a good online service here in Canada (and I've now been looking for TWO years!) - if someone knows of a place that offers a service to the professional user - please let me know!

If it's US prices, aren't these prints going to cost more?
For the model search, I dropped my print & digital negative prices (a lot!) - so, you are in fact, paying much less -and, prices have been adjusted to USD to account for the exchange rate.

What about shipping costs?
Yes - it's true - there are shipping charges - I am yet to find a place that offers me free shipping. Depending on the size/weight of your order, the economy shipping is ~$4-7 for airmail parcel. You can avoid shipping charges by purchasing the digital negatives & printing locally.

What about tax?
There will be no additional tax added to your order.
