5 Days of Photography
The 5DayDeal starts in 20 days! Buy the 5DayDeal through me and you can change the world! Or, to put it another way, you can do some good, get free stuff, and win a chance to spend a day with me in Victoria, Canada, and we’ll pay your way to get here.
For the last 10 years I have lived and breathed photography, the craft I’ve loved since I was a kid. And through some unexpected turns of events, like the publishing of my first book, Within The Frame, you all have become part of that journey. What an incredible ride it has been, and continues to be. I hope I don’t need to tell you again how grateful I am, but I will: thank you. You mean the world to me.
I tell you all that because there’s some great opportunities coming up and I want you to hear about them from me first – in part because it’s going to get really noisy in a few days and this is important to me.
Last year the good people at 5DayDeal included me in their sale and because I was giving away 20% of what I earned as an affiliate, we sent some very significant donations to two organizations I am proud to be connected to. One of those, the BOMA Project is now an official charity partner of this year’s sale and stands to benefit even more. I will continue to give a portion of my affiliate commissions both to BOMA directly and to the pro-bono work I do for other organizations.
So – the sale is coming in 20 days. It’s bigger than last year. I’m not at liberty to tell you what’s coming, but it’s huge, and the offering is all different than last year. It’s massive. Did I say that already?
You’ll have lots of chances to buy the 5DayDeal. And because I’m hoping you’ll choose to participate specifically through the links I will be providing, I’m treating this less like the great sale it is and more like a 5 Day Celebration of Photography.
Free Stuff!
Every day during the sale – whether you buy through me or not – we’ll throw a switch on CraftAndVision.com and one product will be free for 24 hours. Nothing tricky, no hidden agenda. This one’s going to drive my manager insane, but there have to be some perks to being the Chief Executive Nomad of this whole venture, right? And if you do buy through me, and if you don’t happen to win the day with me, we’re going to send 10 signed copies of my latest book, The Visual Toolbox, to 10 lucky runners-up
Vision Is Better Episodes!
Each day during the 5DayDeal I’ll be posting a new episode of Vision Is Better. Great content, totally free, whether or not you get in on the sale.
Do Some Good!
I will be giving 20% of my affiliate earnings to the BOMA Project and to finance my other pro-bono work, including the new assignment with BOMA who works with women and families in extreme poverty in Northern Kenya.
Spend a Day with Me!
Everyone that picks up the 5DayDeal through me gets not only to participate in some of the work I do, but one lucky person will be chosen to come spend a day with me, shooting, hanging out, and learning in whatever way I can help you with – and we’ll pay the airfare to get here. And I’ll pick up the hotel and the bill for meals. You, me, and some cameras in beautiful Victoria, BC.*
This is one of the ways I make my living. When you buy the 5DayDeal through me as an affiliate, I benefit. And so does BOMA and the pro-bono work I do for others. And as a thank you, there will be some great content and a chance to win a day with me. The sale starts on September 10, 20 days from now. I hope you’ll check it out, and if you choose to participate, I hope you’ll choose to do so through the links I give you. It costs you no more, but it gives you a chance to do even more good, and – if you’re lucky – win something no one else is offering.
Win Some Stuff Now!
And in the meantime, if you follow this link you can put your name in the draw for a photography giveaway with over $50,000 worth of prizes. No strings attached. Who’s in?!
* The not-so-fine-print – We’ll cover travel and expenses up to $1200. We love you and we’d love to see you arrive first-class, but this time it’ll have to be an economy seat. We’ll put you in a decent hotel, though, I promise. And the meals will be nice. I might even spring for the wine. Either way, we’ll get you here and have a great time together.
