Photo clubs and schools
Contests just for your members
Show your members how much they are improving, without anyone having to write a critique.
First, the thing that decides whether this will work
A contest needs around 800 photos to produce a ranking anyone can trust. In practice that means a club whose members will each submit several photos. If your club is smaller than that, talk to us anyway — we can add photos to reach that number — but it is the first thing we will ask you about, so it is also the first thing on this page.
Why a closed contest is useful to a school
Your members submit to a contest only your club can see. Everyone judges. The ranking then shows who is improving, and by how much, without anyone having to write a critique.
Most photography courses provide recorded lessons and stop there. Nobody ever tells the student whether their photos actually got better. This does, and it does it with a measurement rather than one person’s opinion.
