Better Blog Photography – Contest Giveaway

I don’t like to be to choosey so this contest is open to anybody in Canada or US and you do NOT need to be attending BlissDom Canada to enter! 

 

If you do any type of product photography for your blog you are going to want to read this post and enter the giveaway below.

As you know BlissDom Canada is only 9 days away and this year I am a Community Leader and talking blog photography. I will be talking different products to help get the images you want as well as techniques.

When you work with Brands and a blog post is included with your package I believe that the images should reflect the quality of your efforts as well as the product you are reviewing.

All of my lighting gear is from Westcott and I wouldn’t dream of using anything else. I prefer constant light to strobes/flashes. For me it just works better for the outcome that I want. For any of you that are regular readers of mine you know that I don’t promote any product that I wouldn’t use myself. If I try it and love it I want to share it.

Here is the awesome part – Westcott has graciously given me a product photography kit to giveaway to my readers

A 20” Digitent – $59.90us retail value

The Digitent is designed to provide glare-free images of highly reflective objects such as electronics or jewelry. By placing the object inside the self-enclosed diffusion box, surrounding light is softened while providing a neutral background behind the object. Digitents collapse to 1/3 their open size and include a black and white backdrop along with protective travel case.

+

 20” Collapsable uLite Softbox & uLite Constant Light – $119.90us retail value

The uLite is one of the first collapsible softboxes designed to give you the amazing light quality of a traditional style softbox, without the tedious set up. With one simple push, your softbox takes form and locks into place.

+

6.5’ Light Stand – $35.90us retail value

This light stand is constructed from aluminum with a black finish to prevent any reflections. Knobs allow for height to be adjusted accordingly and legs extend inward and collapse for travel.

+

The winner will receive all the products listed above as well as a 2 hour workshop from yours truly.

The workshop will cover basis lighting set up as well and a review of your camera and it’s settings. There will also be time set aside to do some shooting and practise all the stuff you’ve just learnt. If you live within a 1 hour drive of my location I will come to you if not we can skype or you can cover my transportation cost to come directly to you as well – the choice is yours.

 

Total value of this prize is $565.70

a Rafflecopter giveaway

You can leave as many comments as you like but only one will be counted. The same goes for the tweeting- 1 tweet = 1 entry 20 tweets = 1 entry

*Please note that any of the products can be substituted at any time with a possible change in value. Wescott will send the winner their products. Open to US and Canadian Residents only. *

As always please feel free to subscribe to my blog so you don’t miss any of the fun!
