I’m excited to announce that I’m hosting another photo challenge! I haven’t hosted one in about 7 months and it’s about time. It will take place in November 2012 and the theme will revolve around the concept of “capturing life.” Here are some of the photos that have inspired it:

It’s going to be pretty simple this time. Photograph ANYTHING that you believe captures life. This is a really broad theme and opens it up to lots of interpretation. There are four full weeks in November and the schedule will work like this:
- Week 1: Start shooting Sunday, November 4th. Submit your photo by Sunday, November 11th at 8pm EST.
- Week 2: Start shooting Sunday, November 11th. Submit your photo by Sunday, November 18th at 8pm EST.
- Week 3: Start shooting Sunday, November 18th. Submit your photo by Sunday, November 25th at 8pm EST.
- Week 4: Start shooting Sunday, November 25th. Submit your photo by Sunday, December 2nd at 8PM EST.
I will post the submissions as a collection each Tuesday after you have all submitted! If you want to see how my past photo challenges have worked, check them out here. Here are some other details:
- Starting November 4th, you will find a submission button here on my blog (in the sidebar). You must submit through my blog for your photo to be published. It will be an online form that you fill out and attach your photo.
- Make sure your photo is 600 px wide, .JPG format, & include your website link if you want anything linked back to you.
- You can use any type of camera that you want! This includes digital, film, iPhone, etc.
- Feel free to edit any way you’d like.
- If tweeting or Instagramming about (0r during) the challenge, use the hashtag #capturingLIFE
- No judges or prizes this time! I wanted this challenge to be more of a fun, personal challenge for you all (and not really a contest). There won’t be a winner – but I will be sharing your photos/links with all my readers every time you submit!
- No nudity, weird crap, or violence. I have the right to refuse any entry.
Leave a comment below if you’ll be participating and if you have any questions! I’m really excited about this one!
I’m in! I love your photo challenges.
You’re my #1 photo challenge supporter!!
I am going to have to support harder going forward! This is now a double challenge for me!
Yes!! You rock.
Count me in! :)
YAY! So glad, Julie!
i’m in…in theory. lol. ironically, actually living life seems to get in the way of me and timely photo challenge submissions…
Haha I totally understand. If I didn’t host these things – I’d probably fail due to life.
I’m in! Looking forward to it.
So glad you’ll be joining Vanessa!
Excited to get in on this one. Thanks for hosting again.
My pleasure :) Glad you’ll be joining!
I was honestly JUST thinking about your photo challenges yesterday. I was going to text you that you should do one in November! So fun. I’m excited to be a part of this and really excited to also see how everyone else interprets life. Thanks for hosting Allie! Xo.
Perfect timing!! Glad you’ll be participating :)
Yippee!! What a fun thing to do before the craziness of the holidays!
Yes! I felt like November would be a good month before everyone is too busy. Will you be participating??
This is so brilliant. I would love to participate.
Awesome! looking forward to seeing your submissions :)
yay! can’t wait! By the way, your session was so helpful. I seriously loved it.
I’m so happy to hear that Kerrie! Loved your post from today – wish we could have met!
This makes me excited. Since the theme is so broad I think I will be able to participate in this.
I agree! Way less pressure when it’s so broad!
yay! just upgraded cameras so i am feeling inspired. really excited to join in on the challenge!
How fun!! Perfect timing :)
This sounds so much fun! I can’t wait for this to start!

Glad you’re excited too!!
Sounds SOOO fun! I’m in!
Hurray! Were you at Influence this past weekend?
No :( :( :(
I am always so bummed that all these fun conferences have not made their way out to the West Coast yet! It looked so amazing though!
It’s SO expensive to travel that much + pay for hotel. That’s why I can go to ALT!
This sounds like so much fun! Count me in! AND I really wish I could have attended the Influence conference to hear your session…I read so many good things about it on twitter!
So glad to have you join, Ashton!! And no worries – hopefully you can get the audio. I’ll also be posting a recap tomorrow!
Alright! I’m in – who knows what kind of pictures I’ll get since I’m on that “I-have-a-three-week-old-and-a-toddler” sleep deprivation cycle, but at least it’ll be funny! Thanks for hosting, chica!
Sounds like you’ll be capturing life though :) aww yay hope all is well with the new additional to your family!
I just stumbled onto your blog today. I’ve recently started my own blog, and have been scouring the internet for a challenge like this so that I’m never lacking in topics. I’m very excited to do this challenge, and to follow your blog. I’m in!
Welcome to the blogging community :) So glad you’ll be participating in my photo challenge!
Count me in. I haven’t taken part in a photo challenge yet and this one sounds achievable with my current crazy life.
Awesome!!
I love a challenge! Photography takes me get outside of myself and my physical issues and look at the thinks in this world that are truly awe-inspiring. I hope that my photos will be a welcome addition to your blog
They definitely will! I’m glad you’ll be participating!!
I will! I’ve been itching to just get out and shoot for my own enjoyment, and this is great inspiration!
Yay! So glad you’ll be joining, Faith!!
