  • The Third Annual Photo Shootout Contest

    ***I need at least 4 people to be able to run this contest! IF there is less than 4 then I will reschedule it to the next month!***


    Hello Everyone!

    This will be a photography contest of EPIC proportions! Depending on how many people sign up we will have up to 2 different challenges for the contest. This is how it works:

    1-5 People - 1 Challenge (1 Prize)
    6-10 People - 2 Challenges (2 Prizes)

    The cost to enter the contest is 2000 Yen per person.

    Voting will be done by everyone, if there is a tie then I will decide the winner.


    First prize for up to 5 people is:

    The Digital Photography Book 3 by Scott Kelby. It has amazing information that is useful to both beginners and advanced photographers.  (Value is 2,000 yen.)

    Second prize added for 6-10 people


    The second prize is the SLIK Sprint 47 tripod in red. This is a great beginner tripod and it's light enough to travel around with as well as it comes with its own bag. 

     (Value 10,000 yen on Amazon):

    like this one.

    So if we have at least 6 participants both prizes will be given out!

    We will meet in Harajuku near the Meiji Jingu gate and there I will share the challenge or challenges that you must do for the contest.


    After that everyone will go out and take the required photos for the challenges. Once we are finished we will go to a coffee shop or to Yoyogi park and everyone will choose 1 photo they want to enter in the contest.

    I will transfer the photos to my Tablet and we will all look at the photos on the tablet and then vote on which one is the best!

    Please make sure you have SD card (or micro SD )in your camera so I can transfer the photos to the tablet.

    After the vote the winner(s) will receive their prizes and we will hang out in Harajuku.

    BONUS- I will give photo critiques throughout the day to anyone that asks. You can bring older photos or just ask about the photos you took that day! I'm looking forward to seeing many people participating!

    This is limited to 10 people only, so sign up early to guarantee your spot!!!

     Thanks!

    We meet in front of this gate:
