More details to this question:
The stipulation is that no photos of our daughter are allowed on any social media site that is publicly viewed. I have printed copies of his Facebook page with pictures of our daughter on them that can be viewed by the public. I have addressed it many times with him and nothing is ever done.

You can always file contempt on your own, as you never are required to have an attorney, and you can represent yourself. However, I would always recommend hiring an attorney to prosecute contempt. Many of the contempt cases that I have observed that are self represented, have major legal errors that cause the case to be dismissed. An attorney could help avoid these legal errors.
