Congratulations to Carter – Baby of the Year 2021/22 Winner!

Carter is the winner of the Baby of the Year 2021/22 Competition!

With 100 beautiful entries in a very close competition, Carter’s entry was popular among our competition judges, which means he claims the title of Baby of the Year 2021/22, plus a cheque for £5000!

Carter’s winning entry was taken by photographer Matthew Preston (Barrett & Coe Lichfield), who is no stranger to success in our competition having achieved several winning and Top-10 Finalist entries in past Baby of the Month competitions.

Commenting on his first success in our annual competition Matthew told us: “I am absolutely delighted to have captured a Baby of the Year winning image – my studio is just about to celebrate the fifth anniversary of its opening, and what better way to celebrate!

Carter came to the studio with his mum back in July 2022, and as soon as I saw him, I knew I would be able to get some fantastic images of him – he was really happy and full of smiles during the session, and that, together with his fantastic head of hair and huge eyes was bound to be a winning combination.

Obviously, every baby who comes into the studio you would love to see do well in the competition, but every so often you are able to capture an image of a baby that you feel particularly attached to and have high hopes for in the competition, and Carter’s was definitely one of those images for me.”

Carter’s mum Bronwen told us: “We can’t believe Carter has won the Baby of the Year competition. Carter’s wild hair has always been eye-catching! We are so pleased for him, he’s a well-deserved winner.”

Congratulations to all Baby of the Year finalists, to Carter on his success, and to Matthew for capturing the winning portrait!
