contest for new photographers

Safely home and mind spinning from WPPI, the grande dame of wedding photography conventions in Las Vegas, I wanted to alert new photographers to an excellent contest announced there this week by Rangefinder Publishing and liveBooks called emerge.

Geared toward newer (er, emerging) photographers, the photography contest aims to help launch the careers of wedding industry newbies with stellar prizes: a one-year subscription to a liveBooks predesigned website, a one-year subscription to a Pictage account, a one-year subscription to a ShootQ account, a 2011 WPPI VIP pass, a Think Tank Photo belt and a $100 AsukaBook gift card. The top photographer in each category will receive an advertising package from TheKnot.com valued at $1,200, and a professional photography kit from Sony valued at $2,000. Wow!
