The Creative Profile Pic Challenge:

I mentioned on this weeks Podcast we are having a contest this to promote updating your profile image here on lbobi. Your mission is to simply post a profile pic. It's SO easy to do. Remember to crop it square in Photoshop. If you want the exact dimensions they are 106 pixels by 106 pixels.

1. Choose a picture that you think is creative or interesting.
2. Post it to your profile page.
3. Make a comment here in this post, giving the creative rational for why you chose this picture.

On Monday 11-1-10 we will pick a winner from all comments posted here.

The Prizes:
$50 lbobi bucks and a 3 month trial pro membership to Animoto.com.


To help you along I even made a quick little demo on how to post a profile pic.

I chose this profile photo because I feel that it exemplifies my specialty, which is High School Senior photography. Plus it's one of my favorite images from this year. ;)

I chose this picture as my profile because it reminds me of the spirit of creativity. Children are very creative, and as we grow older, that creativity can get stunted. My hope is to keep that creativeness alive in my children, and to re-energize it in my self as well.

Thanks guys! That is exactly what I am meaning.
My pic BTW is my and my bride last month on a chair lift in Breckenridge Colorado.

Mine isn't "super" creative but I do like it. I try to be consistent with my online image, including the photo I use. This is the one of me taken last September at a photographer's retreat in OBX.

Got married on 10/10/10 next to a big rock in the desert, just liked we had joked about years before. Normally I am not one to get in front of the camera but I fell in love with how my daughter sees me. My daughter captured this image of me just after the ceremony.

Celebrate Life and Capture It!

I changed my profile pic. DJLANCE ROCK!

My girls love YoGabbaGabba so I decided to go as everyone's favorite DJ for Halloween this year.

It's me and "the alice everyone's been talking about". After slaving away over the costume she says, "Jr. High kids don't dress up for Halloween." I'm feelin' the love. :)

I shot this "self portrait" late in the night at a wedding I recently shot. I had really enjoyed watching all of the guests creating these crazy images of them selves in the photo booth all night and really wanted in on the action at this point.

The DJ was spinning some rap and we were out in the country so I though a little "Urban Cowboy" was the way to go...

I always have a new favorite picture. This happens to be... my new favorite. And really, I just got lucky. It's a great example of stumbling onto something that I wouldn't have otherwise captured if I wasn't out there shooting. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

I have a little gray hair. I also like to balance small bunnies on my head :)

Um am I still bacon face or do I have a rabbit on my head? Comments show bacon and my "Edit Profile" show a bunny.

It was one of those "glad I had my camera" moments.

I chose this image because I've been so busy with projects and weddings lately, this photobooth test shot is one of the only recent images of myself! It represents, to me, that I've gotta take a few minutes to have fun and be myself everyday.

I chose my "Wednesday Addams" profile photo because it is very out of character for me and it reminds me that it's okay to let loose and have some time with friends not working!
My 13 year old daughter took the photo in my studio, so it made me feel so proud that she wants to follow in my footsteps as a photographer.

Yes, it is true. I am a lazy bum. I needed a contest to motivate me to post a pic of myself. Thank you for knowing me so well...I don't get on the lens side of the camera very often but this is a 'self-shot' done on my stairs. Now, the next step is for me to post this on my own website.

Julie M is the winner! Selected randomly scientific like.

Congratulations!!
You win $50 lbobi bucks and a 3 month ANIMOTO pro account.

The rest of you guys are getting a little something for playing along.

I'll be announcing a new contest tomorrow.
