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! :)

I'm relaunching my photography business after a hiatus to raise a family and winning this gift from Adorama would be a terrific boost to continue updating my equipment. There are still many tools needed and Adorama is a great company with a wonderful staff and excellent customer service. I already belong to Rock the Shot and have gotten some great ideas and advice from the forum. Things have changed considerably (going from film to digital) so its great to have a place for discussion.
Just liked on Facebook! Yay!
If I were to win I'd use the money to buy a new camera since I've out grown my current one, I'd also buy two new lenses and the flash of my dreams not the crappy one I have now. It'd be amazing if I won!!! Thank you for having this awesome giveaway!

My business is undeniably in its infancy phase, but the chance to have an adrenaline shot to my future would be incredible. A friend of mine is an immensely talented photographer and inspiration; I would give her $1,000 to use at Adorama. I would use the remainder to get the 7d body I've had my eye on. The free membership to Rock the Shot would be incredible too because it would give me the chance to collaborate and learn from so many other talented people. The workshops offered there are a great chance to take my editorial eye even further. Keeping my fingers crossed!

What could I do with the giveaway winnings? With the Adorama card I could reallocate $$ from my equipment fund to my charity fund and still be able to get some much needed studio lighting. I have started donating sessions to families with children with serious illnesses. I love sharing the joy and tears with them and I would love to be able to do more. A website would help me offer that opportunity to many more needy families! Thanks for the opportunity to win!!
Winning this giveway would help me to achieve a few goals much more quickly! And…. I would do the happy dance. :)
This would be the perfect thing to jump start my new business in 2012, I am just starting out and have my eye on a couple of new lenses and some studio lighting. I am excited to finally be starting this adventure! Thank you for the opportunity to win such an awesome prize!

I visited, followed, and said hello to all the vendors. I shared about this amazing giveaway on my Facebook page. I joined BP4U's mailing list. Winning this would really take my photography business to a new and greater level. I don't have the greatest lenses, would love to have all the bells & whistles such as lights, backdrops, softboxes, etc. I work a full time job, plus part-time photographer on the side. Would really love to have a better camera as well. Thanks so much for this chance!
Hi Brooke!!! I just wanted to start off saying how awesome this giveaway is! I know who ever wins will be incredibly blessed! This giveaway would mean 2 years of my business I can just fast forward (equipment wise). I am recently married and working full time plus have a part time photography business. In 2012 I would like to make my business a full time job! My husband and I just can't afford for me to go off work and start a business with the equipment I have. I have a goal to save all my extra pennies and buy a higher end camera hopefully a 5d mark 2! Right now I only have a cannon rebel t3. It would honestly be the best present ever. I would be able to put the money I saved from not having to buy the equipment to getting a home studio set up! I know everyone is saying that they would love this. And i believe them all! Good luck to everyone who is participating in this! And thanks again! You are AWESOME!!
Winning this giveaway would help me so MUCH!! The gift card alone would allow me to finally purchase some of the necessities I need to run a successful photography business. I desperately need portable lighting for shooting wedding receptions and a backup camera! I hope to start shooting more weddings in 2012, but will continue to keep family and children photography my main focus. Thank you so much for this amazing giveaway!! :)

Wow! What an amazing giveaway!!! This would mean so much to me. I do not have a photography business yet, but it is my dream! Winning this would mean I could get the equipment I've been drooling over plus get all the help and support through Rock the Shot and a website set up! Couldn't ask for a better prize! This would make 2012 such an amazing year for me and my family. To finally have a career for me that I would love and to be able to share that passion with others would be so great. Thanks for the chance! bp4u you rock!
