I’m not gonna lie…I’m pretty stinkin jealous of all the people who are going to Vegas for WPPI this year. Reading all the blog posts, tweets, etc about how fun it’s going to be…well it’s driving me a bit crazy! Unfortunately this year I won’t be able to attend, but next year I will go for sure. For those who don’t know about WPPI, it’s like the biggest photography convention in the world hee hee. I know…I’m a total nerd.
Well about a week or so ago I came across this contest that BluDomain was putting on! It was their Day 20 Contest and it’s deadline was March 1st. The winner of this contest would win one round trip airfare to Las Vegas for the WPPI convention PLUS a 3-night stay at the MGM…which is right where the convention is being held. The contest was to take a photograph of yourself with a suitcase in one hand, make a sash to go around you that reads “I LOVE BLU”, and to wear your favorite attire. I love that BLU has these strange requests for contests, it really brings out the creative side in people. Well knowing the competition was going to be fierce, I took that challenge as not only competing for a ticket to Vegas, but as a chance to have some fun and get creative! I brought my great friend Ai along with me so I wouldn’t look like such an idiot taking pictures of myself at Kerry Park.
So this is the image I submitted! So dorky, yet so fun! It was such a beautiful day!
And here is an image that we took together! I love this picture of us.
Now despite the fact that I didn’t win, I still had a lot of fun participating! I’m so anxious to see the winning photo!
I hope all you photographers out there have a ton of fun at WPPI this year!!! Have a drink for me!
Okay this is WAYYY cute! I would have picked you! lol Please don’t tell me you had to jump in the air to get the pose, and if you did Wow good job!!! That’s better then our Harry Potter moves!
Hey girl! You have the cutest photo ever, I can’t believe you didn’t win 🙁 I’m in the Seattle/Ocean Shores area – we should meet up sometime!
You’re totally cute and I wish you had won! We’ll miss you in Vegas!
I am a little bitter for you that you didn’t win. Creative, fun and completely YOU! Next year. Let’s go next year.
