The first ever Fstoppers Workshop in the Bahamas is happening May 28th - June 1st at Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas and we want to give one of our readers the trip of a lifetime for FREE! We are actually doing 2 separate contests and they both end today, Friday May 28th at midnight eastern time. If you are looking to expand your own photo skills, connect with other photographers in your field, explore a different genre of photography, or simply take a vacation you can write off, this is going to be the event to attend. How do you win this trip for free? Details are below:
Contest 1: All expense paid trip to the 2014 Fstoppers Workshop in Nassau, Bahamas.
This contest is open to everyone world-wide. On February 1st, 2014, one lucky Fstoppers fan will win a flight voucher worth up to $500 to travel to the workshop in the Bahamas. They will also win accommodations for 5 nights at the Atlantis Resort and access to any of the courses offered throughout the event. A passport is required to enter the Bahamas so make sure your documents are current and up to date.

Contest 2: Full Refund on All Paid Classes
This second contest is open only to those who have signed up and paid for a class at the 2014 Fstoppers Workshop. To inspire you guys to sign up early, rather than waiting until the last minute, on February 1st we will pick one lucky attendee and reimburse their entire photography workshop class package. The full refund amount will depend on the number of classes bought prior to the announcement of the winner. Since this year's workshop is limited to about 200 students, your chances of being chosen are much greater than the above contest open to the general public.

All entries must be submitted before 11:59 PM eastern time on January 31st for consideration. Prizes are contingent on winner attending the workshop and are worth no actual monetary value. Winning trip and classes cannot be transferred or given to anyone other than the winner. Passport is required.

I want to win this contest because I believe that attending this workshop will more than quadruble my photographic abilities. These are some of the best teachers in the industry without a doubt, and anyone can learn from this!
Would love to attend..to build more knowledge and to learn! Cheers!
Now that I can finally understand most of the terms used when watching online photography tutorials, it's time to learn the secrets of success in person. Video education is awesome but there's nothing like the real thing. This workshop just might propel me from obsessed hobbyist to extremely obsessed professional.

It's one thing to have the passion, but you've gotta have an insatiable thirst for new knowledge..I've got both, and attending this event would certainly quench my thirst :)

I'd love to go to Nassau! Sounds like a chance to learn a lot AND get a great tan too :-)
it would be an honor to be chosen for this workshop to finally get to meet and work with people who's blogs I've been reading daily for so long now. I've seen videos online for years now of all these photography workshops that I have yet been able to attend and it kills me to miss yet another.
I'd like to win because I desperately need a vacation, and because of all the great instructors that will be there.
I've never been to a workshop at this level before. I'd love to learn with others. I've never been to the Bahamas and as it so happens, May 28th is my 40th birthday! That would be a great present!!
Attending this would mean learning from some of the best out there, what else is there needed to say? :)
I would love to win this trip for the workshops! By winning this contest, I am hoping that with the knowledge gained i would be able to finally take that leap of faith and quit my day job to live my dream as a full time photographer! :)
packed my speedos and my camera cleaning kit, let`s go :)
Living the dream smelling the sea salt air and creating in such a beautiful place would be a dream. I hope I'm selected! thank you for the opportunity!
This would be a life changing experience. I just started my photography business and would
love the ability to sit in with those who have already made it professionally in this field. This trip would be an invaluable opportunity for me and my business. Please pick me!!
What better setting to learn from the best? I'd absolutely love to go!
i would love a free holiday in the Bahamas, i need to top up my tan, there will be time for tanning won't there, it's not all workshop workshop workshop is it ? what i really meant to say was, i would learn so much by attending the Fstoppers workshops, you guys rock
Sounds like a great learning opportunity! Please count me in.
this sounds amazing! i've never been able to go to a photography workshop like this before, and while i've taken a few classes i'm almost entirely self-taught. i've landed some awesome photography jobs so far but would really like to take my work and business to the next level. thanks for a great opportunity, and good luck everyone!
Im a keen amateur photographer from a tiny town in Ireland where not much happens.my camera gives me a feeling of escapism and wonder to the world.photography fulfills me and gives me a sense of purpose
You guys are SO cool! I have a wedding may 18th and June 7th. When I heard the dates I FREAKED out. This would be amazing, I've looked up to you guys for so long. And Feburary 1st is 5 days before my birthday.
It's that time of year where I need a kick up the backside to get to the next level. This sounds ideal! And oh, it's the Bahamas!
I'd love to win this trip to allow for me to go and learn from some of the best.
After working hard over the past two years trying to gain experience in photography, emailing hundreds of photographers all around the country, teaching my self what I know about photography and being unsuccessful all the while I believe one opportunity to learn from the best is all I need to prove to myself, and the family that doubts me I can do anything I put my mind to.
Love this contest! I'd love to win, I have so much to learn and the Bahamas would be an amazing place to test out some of those new skills! Good luck everyone!
I've been working my butt off trying to build a successful photography business. It hasn't been easy, but 2014 looks promising. To have the opportunity to learn from some of the best would be incredible.
I would love to win this! I've been looking at the budget ever since I saw the post for this workshop to see if it's feasible this year. This would definitely make it easier to go. I am really wanting to come do the wedding workshop!!
It would be amazing to go and take all those classes!
I would love to win this as I am a photographer. This would be a great opportunity for me to learn from the best!
Would LOOOOOVE to win this contest. Bahamas would be an amazing change to the sub-zero temperatures here in Norway and also it'll start my 2014 perfectly to learn new skills from the pros themselves!!!
what a great opportunity for any photographer, to gain this experience from seasoned pros in the industry. this could take my photography to the next level and maybe make it possible for me to go to full time photographer.
Great contest! I am curious if people from outside the US have also a chance to win. It seems that there is only one way to find out..... ;-)
I would love to attend.
I have been doing photography for just over 4 months and I shot my first wedding last week! I am very proud of where my ability has come to within such a short time. I will never be satisfied as I feel this is the only way to keep getting better. This workshop would be the perfect way for me to fuel my photography and it will certainly open new doors for me.
