The Pros and Cons of Photography Competitions

Full Disclosure: I believe that MANY photography competitions SUCK! I think they're harmful to your development as a photographer and a total waste of time unless you are a person who truly enjoys competing. There are also some excellent photography competitions that, if entered for the right reasons, can be very rewarding.

Join me to find out how, and of course, we will have a shoot breakdown, a quote of the week, the exclusive LAST FRAME Photography Q&A, and more!
