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! :)

5) I would get some more and new equipment with the Adorama…new lenses, maybe a second camera so I wouldn't have to borrow my husband's as a second…maybe my own tripod, etc. With Rock the Shot I'd learn from others, be part of a community and have access to lots of templates and much much more to add to my business knowledge and what I can offer to my clients. And having my OWN website that is not through another site has been my dream for a few years now….that would be awesome and amazing ….totally customizable…wow! There are no words truly to describe how much this would mean to me and to help my business to grow. I moved to a new city about 6 months ago and don't have a huge customer based established yet…if I won this giveaway…I would have tons of tools to get myself out there and to improve the outward appearance of my business as well as having the equipment to assist me in expanding my photography repetoire. Thanks soooo much for this opportunity!
Left some love on all the facebook pages.

Shared the link on my facebook page! I'm so excited!
I would live to buy new lenses! I'd feel more confident printing products for customers without all the noise I have now. 2012 would be a great year with those!
I like BP4U on facebook :)
Although I'm just starting out I've been taking photos for years and have recently gotten the courage to put myself out there. Winning this awesome giveaway would give me an upgraded camera so I can use my old one as a backup, a few lenses (I only have one) and a much needed flash. I want to start shooting weddings and see these as necessities. It would also allow me to save money on renting lenses. AND don't even get me started on the website! I would love to have one! When people ask what's your web address and I'm there stuttering makes me look so un-professional. This giveaway would put me where I need to be to get my business successful.

The $2500 Adorama gift certificate would enable us to purchase the lighting and equipment so we can take our fledgling business to the next level. The 6 month membership to the Rock the Shot will give us access to the resources and support that we need to provide the high level of service our clients deserve. The free website from CMD Marketing is the icing on our packaging/presentation/marketing cake.

After taking a year to find my true love for weddings it has been clear in my journey that my poor 40D is slowly dying :O( The gift certificate to Adorama would help so much towards a new camera.

So, I started my business in April 2011 and am blessed that I am as busy as I am already but, lately I have felt that my canon t3i just isn't good enough for how far I want to push my pictures to be. I have been looking at the 5dmarkII and this would be an amazing gift to get so that I can exceed my own expectations. :)

I joined your mailing list! Love your stuff it has helped my photography business so much.
If I won this giveaway it would be AMAZING for my buisness. I want to really further my career in wedding and newborn photography and need a good camera to do this. The camera I have now is good and I can get pretty nice pictures but when in low light or doing newborn sessions it isn't enough. I would cry my eyes out of I was able to purchase a Canon 5d mark II along with many other people I'm sure. The fact that you are going to grant someone one of the greatest gifts for their business is the sweetest thing ever and I thank you for the chance to be that person. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
I follow you on fb, shared your blog and page! I would love to win this and it would bless me tremendously! I could get things that I need to further my love for photography & career in photography!
I liked BP4U on Facebook!! I have 2 of your guides already and love them!
I liked Adorama, and Rock the Shot on Facebook and showed them some comment love! :)
shared the link on my facebook page for everyone to see!
maybe I should start by saying what the BP4U guides have already done for my business! I struggled with poses for brides without making them look too cheesy. When I found your guides I just couldn't help myself but buy almost all of them. Having the money to buy top of the line equipment would be a dream come true and a real blessing. Although my business had a great 2011, I'm going to push it further in 2012. I want to be a success story. I'm going to use Rock the Shot to learn every morsel of information I can to improve my skills, and then I'm going to show them all off with a kick ass website.
Like you on facebook! (how did I miss doing that anyway, lol?)

Just getting started wtih my business. Have been spending time improving my skills and making sure I have a sound business plan. I am deciding when to take the big leap. To move to more full time will require a better marketing plan, and a shift of my resources from employed to self-employed. Looking for partners that will help me be successful. In my business life (working for someone else) I have learned the value of trusted partners that bring skills, expertise, ideas and criticism to the table. I think one of the pitfalls of self employment is that you dont have the balance of ideas that you have on a large team.
I shared the giveaway on my page!
I am officially starting my photography business in January! I've been learning as much as I can in workshops, and portfolio building. With these prizes, I will be able to buy some studio equipment, launch my website & continue my photography education! I am so excited to begin my journey!

Winning this giveaway would allow me to get some much needed equipement to take my business to the next level. I just opened up my studio in October and have discovered that I need additional equipment to enhance my photos (lighting, backdrops, a new lense, etc). Being a stay at home mother of 3 beautiful girls (1 week old, 13 month old & 5 yr old) extra money does not exsist. This would really help me get what I need to be able to stay at home with them. Thank you for the giveaway and Merry Christmas.
What this giveaway means to me: I'm getting ready to officially launch my photography business! After a year of preparing and building my portfolio, it's time. This giveaway would mean that I could upgrade my website and purchase the additional lenses to provide more versatility and better glass that I've been wanting and saving for. I would love this so much! Totally make my year and a great start to 2012!
