Inspiring Photographers

Name The Tune & Win Photography Books

by

At Dane Sander's Fast Track Photographer Workshop in Boston, I received a couple of photography-related books that are truly exceptional. I happen to own them already and so giving them away just makes sense. Yes, the ones I will send out to you are brand new.

First book I am giving away is Fast Track Photographer, by Dane Sanders. The second edition of this book reaches bookshelves across the planet on May 18. You will want to buy that one for sure.

The second book I am giving away is Digital Photography Boot Camp: A Step-by-Step Guide for Professional Wedding and Portrait Photographers, by Kevin Kubota. Kevin has a wonderful and long-running workshop called the Digital Photography Bootcamp. It's perpetually sold out for a reason. He is an amazing teacher and I am in love with his Photoshop actions and more recently his Lightroom presets. Good stuff. Well, if you can't make it to the workshop, there is the book, which is full of useful information about setting up your workflow.

Here's how you can win – name the song this bridegroom is belting out in the image you see below – yeah, that easy!

Bridegroom Singing At Wedding Reception, by Seshu Photography

I photographed Mike enjoying his reception with his friends this past weekend at The Waterview, in Monroe, Connecticut. A fun, spirited wedding for sure.

Guessing is good. First two people to answer correctly win one book each. Sorry, I can't give away both the books to the same person. One book per person. Cool? Shipping is included. Feel free to post a link on your own blog about this contest. Tweeting about it would help too!

Use this when you Tweet: “RT @PicSeshu Name The Tune & Win Photography Books. Please RT!”

Ok, post your answer in the comments below. It's all in good fun. I'll announce a winner (if there is one) on May 7. Good luck!

UPDATE: After nearly 53 comments and 47 reTweets, there is only one person who got the right answer. To help one other astute person win the other book, I am going to drop the following hints – Think “trip” and one of the other songs in the band's repertoire had to do with the city of San Francisco. I have already said way too much! [grin]

UPDATE 2: Looks like my “hint” didn't quite elicit the right response. The winner of the first book is Lauren Lim. She nailed it with the correct answer “Don't Stop Believing – by Journey.” The first person to comment after reading this updated post wins the second book. Fair enough? Thank you all for playing. That was fun!

    Scott – Nice try, but nope.

    Cort – Woah, that was close, but sorry, wrong song.

    Abby – Good choice, but nope. Think big hair rock-n-roll!

    Bummer, I was going to guess Livin' on a Prayer – Bon Jovi but looks like I was beat to it! I'll work on a second guess!

  12. picseshu says

    Wow, good guesses all. But no right answer yet. Spread the word. Let's see who gets this right. I'll drop a hint or two in a couple of days if there are still no winners. Thank you all for playing. Keep those guesses coming!

    I know AC/DC's “You Shook Me All Night Long” is a favorite, but that's not the right song. Keep on guessing folks. This is fun!

    Hey Dawn – the suspense is killing me too … who will win either of the two books? <grin>

    Doesn't seem like my first attempt went through:

    I'd say, “Mony Mony”, the Billy Idol version.

  47. wizwow says

    “You've Lost That Loving Feeling”
    “Love Stinks”
    “I've Got Friends in Low Places”
    “Roxanne”
    “Ruby Don't Take Your Love To Town”

    Sorry – I don't do a lot of weddings… heh.

    I Love You Baby

    I love you baby
    And if it's quite all right
    I need you baby
    To warm my lonely night
    I love you baby
    Trust in me when I say
    Oh, pretty baby
    Don't bring me down I pray
    oh, pretty baby
    Now that I found you, stay
    and let me love you
    Baby let me love you…
