We are giving away a $2500 Adorama gift certificate to one lucky bp4u fan. If you haven't checked out the adorama store, you're missing out. Amazing store full of equipment goodies! We are so thankful to all of the support & fans of bp4u and wanted to help out one fan by giving them equipment!
We went to our facebook pages and started asking, ok... what equipment? Problem is, you have Canon people (woot, jk) ;) and then Nikon people. So what better way to get the equipment you want and need then give away a GINORMOUS gift card! We decided to make it that much sweeter, not only are we doing the gift card, we also joined together with some FAB vendors who are going to be giving away a CMD website & 6 months membership to Rock the Shot Forum. Did your mouth just drop? Hopefully it did!

I've been posting the last few weeks about how to get your business to the next level, posting other photographers tell all stories on Tuesdays. Well, it's not Tuesday but your Monday is going to start looking a lot better, once you see what we have in store for you! With this prize not only will you get new equipment, a new site and you'll be able to use the resources on Rock The Shot, to inspire and help get your business where it needs to be in 2012. SO FLIPPIN' PUMPED!
Here's a quick reminder of what all you'll get! :)

This giveaway would make the difference between upgrading to a 7D and a 5DMII for me & it would also allow me to finish setting up my indoor studio! Oh, what a HUGE blessing this would be!!! Thank you SO very much for hosting this amazing giveaway!!
I "like" all of the vendors and have spread the love all over the place! :) Thanks!!!
Followed you on facebook. (now I know why I keep seeing all the bp4u Guides sent me on some of the facebook pages I like). Awesome.
This giveaway is so awesome! Thank you so much for the opportunity!
I love photography so much. Right now it is just part-time and kind of slow-going. I am saving up to buy a studio and more equipment so that I can be a full-time photographer. It's been my dream for a long time, but with the amazing support of my husband it has become a reality. (even if only in a small way right now)
If I win, I will buy more lenses (right now I rent them when I have weddings, etc). Definitely looking into lighting equipment as well.
Thanks again for an awesome giveaway. Good luck, everyone!
I joined the BP4U Guides Mailing List! (For a second time, perhaps…but better safe than sorry!) Thanks for the GREAT giveaway!!
If I won this giveaway I would use it to buy a new Canon camera. I love Canon products and I've been wanting to upgrade mine for awhile. If I didn't buy the camera then I would definitely buy some better lenses than the ones I have now. I haven't actually started a photography business, but I'm very interested in learning more about it and this would be an awesome way to help me get started. Thanks for having this giveaway!!!

My Final Entry – What it would mean and what I {WILL} do!!!
I have been OBSESSED with Photography since I was given my very first 110 camera when I was 5 for Christmas from my Momma. Since then I rarely go anywhere with out at least my p&s. I have taken classes with 35mm and digital, shoot my family enough that my niece and nephews as well as my son have perfected the "fake smile". I am in love with photography and now that I get to be a stay at home mom, free of the insurance world I am free to begin my business, doing what I was born to do! Winning this giveaway would allow me to enter the photography world with all my ducks in a line. I would be able to purchase my 1st choice camera body instead of my second choice, invest in some higher quality lenses, and I would be able to get the soft boxes that I have my heart set on sooner rather than later! :D
I have the business end covered and in 2012 I will be transforming the way Upstate NY views family photography!!!! Thank you for the chance Brooke and Pedro! You both ROCK!
Wow. I would probably break down in tears if I won. My hubby & I shoot as a team and both need to upgrade equipment. This would take a little of the money stress off my shoulders :-)
What would it mean to me? Oh, wow. There are so many lenses I would like to add to my collection to improve my versatility in photography. $2500 would go a long way! I would love an eye-catching website to bring in new clients. I know I could learn a lot in 6 months with a Rock the Shot Membership! Thanks to all!

#5. If I win this, it means I know for sure I won't have to put my business on the back burner for 2012. I have very little money and just moved (meaning no clients in the area) so right now my only option is to quit what I love and get another job so that I can hopefully save up eventually for the gear I need since mine is getting very old!! I really need this!!

This giveaway is amazing! I hope I'm the lucky winner so i can grow my business. Its always wonderful to learn about and from other vendors. I'm a Indiana photographer always looking to better myself and the experience my clients receive. The new year is almost here it would be wonderful to start it off right and keep moving forward .
Winning this prize would do so much for my business. The last year has been a rough one. A week after our son was born, my husband lost his job and was unemployed for seven months. A month after getting a new job, he was injured in a motorcycle accident that left him in the hospital for a month and wheelchair bound for two months. We were also robbed a little over a year ago and some of our gear was stolen. Winning this HUGE prize would really help us get back on our feet and get back to doing the things that we love.
Showed love to all pages

I already follow you, rock-the-shot and Adorama on fb and I'm on your mailing list. 2011 was a great year for me, I did my first wedding (with the fabulous help of your guides), got tons more portrait clients and I'm super pumped. I know 2012 will be an even better year, I have one wedding booked and another one in the works. Getting that gift card would greatly enhance my success this year. Thanks for this great give-away chance!

This giveaway is not only awesome all wrapped up in a giveaway, but it is a stellar opportunity for my photography business to get the equipment I need so I may continue doing what I love. I had a rocky start, but honestly believe you have to start somewhere…even if it is rock bottom. My goal, business wise, in 2012 is to climb the steps of success…one landing at a time. Winning this giveaway would help give me the boost I so desperately need to get up to the next landing. I can see it…I'm just not sure how I'm going to get there yet.
In closing: You. Guys. ROCK.
Step Five: CHECK! :)
Thank you for being so AWESOME!
