Columbus Pride Festival - Ohio

Capture arresting photos that turn heads and make people want to know more about the Columbus Ohio Pride Festival, June 16-18.

We seek to tell the story of what makes this experience distinctive and unforgettable. Focus on people having authentic candid experiences.

Images must portray, two or more people sharing connections and experiences. The more unexpected and head-turning the better. Images should include a sense of place of the surroundings and activities at which these connections happen. Be sure the subjects are experiencing something unique and authentic. Do your best to represent multicultural diversity.
 
Your creative eye is important, but consider the following while shooting:
-Photographers are responsible for obtaining necessary signed releases for locations and people in the image
-Avoid subjects looking at the camera
-Please shoot primarily vertical imagery, few horizontal images will be accepted
-Avoid the backs of people/heads.
-Aim to shoot 1/100 second shutter speed
-Use a wide angle lens for interiors (no wider than 17mm)
-Be sure subjects are in focus unless
-Use a greater depth of field when appropriate
-Avoid using a flash and always try using natural light. If you must, point the flash to the ceiling.
 
All photos captured will be purchased as a Royalty Free license. The photos will be used non-exclusively without any further compensation. You can use the photos for personal promotion and use.
 
Good luck and we hope you enjoy this project.
