Hello Everyone
Audrey and I are friends with a couple, Chuck and Jenny, that have been entered into a contest by a photographer friend. The contest “Name Your Dream Assignment” for photographers is described as follows:
What is Name Your Dream Assignment?
Name Your Dream Assignment is a contest for photographers of all backgrounds. We’re looking for the most creative, inspiring photo shoot idea out there. The photographer with the winning idea will win $50,000 to bring his or her dream assignment to life.
How will the entries be judged?
From March 3 to April 3, 2009, the ideas will be open to a public vote. The Top 20 ideas with the most “pics” coming out of the vote will then be judged by an expert panel, who will select the winner based on the originality and creativity of the photographer’s idea. The panel will also take into consideration skill and experience.
The dream described by the friend:
Adoption Journey
