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! :)

It would mean the world to me and my business in 2012 if I were to win. Money has been tight and my husbands job situation is iffy for the next few months. So my business budget is non existent every little bit helps no matter where it comes form.

Since I am just starting out, this uber-fab giveaway would be huge for my business. I would be able to add more equipment to my arsenal that is necessary to run a successful business.
Winning this giveaway would give me the ability to continue to grow my business. Right now I'm at a standstill until I can afford to upgrade from my Rebel to a camera that can handle low light with high ISO. I used to think what I had could cut it but now I realize it's just not the case.

5. Leave a comment on our blog telling us what this giveaway prize would mean to you and what you would do with your business in 2012.
My home was broken into this past Monday, and the thieves got away with many things including my cameras. Receiving this prize would mean the world to me as the insurance agent informed me that since I 'made money' with them and didn't have my business insurance squared away yet, I would not be getting anything back for them. I've learned a hard lesson, all two days before Christmas. Getting this would make my business not fold under in 2012 like I'm afraid of happening. I know it's a long shot, and there are so many worthy people entering – I just thought it would be worth a try.
Thanks for hosting such a wonderful giveaway.
Just shared this blog post on my wall, one more way of entering is always fun.
Just liked the bp4u facebook fanpage (can't believe i hadnt already, love the guides)

Winning this would give me the opportunity to purchase a 2nd camera. This is something that I have been saving towards. It would help me grow my new business in 2012 and would be a huge blessing for me.
I commented on Adorama's facebook and ROck the shot…I could not find CMD marketing though.

This giveaway could do do much for business. The opportunity to improve my website on CMD, the opportunity to learn through the Rock the Shot forums, and the opportunity to get some more gear from Adorama. Oh the possibilities! Thank you so much for an awesome giveaway!
I shared your link
I would so love the adorama gift card; I really want to invest in good glass. I also think the site would help tremendously, I want to try & get my name out there. FB isn't helping like I thought it would:( Fingers crossed!
This giveaway would mean that I could purchase some better lenses and lighting equipment to take my business to the next level. My goal in 2012 is by the end of the year to be able to bring in 50% of my FT salary through my photography business so that by the end of 2013 I can hopefully stay home with my little ones.
Love capturing images, but I need a website and I need me some adorama!! :)

I would love to win this giveaway so much! I have a 50d that is my primary camera and shortly after I purchased it from someone in an online community it started getting an error.

Entry #5: Winning this would open up so many creative possibilities for me in regards to my photography business!! I so want to up grade my camera & get a nice prime lenses, my wish list keeps getting longer and longer but my funds keep getting smaller :( My business is for my family & I work as hard as I can to provide the best for my kids.

Winning this contest would mean the world to me. I have friends I like to take pictures with, and together we come up with the best ideas, and we work so well together. With my business, I would offer the people who come to me for portraits things that they will cherish for a lifetime. Photography is not JUST a business to me, it is not ONLY a hobby, it is a tried and true passion that I live for everyday. I love it when I can take a picture of someone who thinks they don't look good and make them feel beautiful when they look at the product and see that they actually are beautiful. Photography is a calling, and I follow it and love it and stay true to it. I am a photographer and I love every minute of it. I would be honored and thankful to win this contest. Thank you for hosting it and giving me a chance!
