Not to gripe, but I see an issue with this contest. While going through the 1,000+ photos this round, I kept seeing the same kids over and over again. I thought Miller's had a rule about not submitting more than one photo per child? It sure increases a photograper's odds when they have 15+ photos of the same child in different poses.

Just a thought.

The rule for the contest is that only one photo of a child can be submitted per session. The goal of the contest is to hopefully help drive business through the slower times of the year by increasing the number of sessions. Posting the same child from the same session doesn't necessarily accomplish that goal. We do try to catch multiple postings from the same session prior to voting, however, if you see some, keep in mind that we also verify all images were posted according to the rules prior to announcing the winners. Thanks for the feedback.
