I LOVE NEW YORK CONTEST!
I recently returned from New York City after my girlfriend Janet had surprised me to a long-weekend in New York City for a B-Day gift. I know what you’re thinking Ahhhhhhhhh……….. what a nice girlfriend & I agree 
We had an amazing time staying at the W Hotel Times Square. We spent our time going to museums, photo galleries, shopping, great restaurants and sight seeing. Oh, and did i mention photography? All images on this page were taken from our trip (interior photos below are of the W Hotel Times Square).
While in New York I was thinking how could we gift a trip for 2 to New York City for our 2010 Wedding Clients to enjoy maybe on their 1st anniversary?
You may ask why would we give away a trip for 2 to New York City including return airfare staying at the W Hotel Times Square including limousine service in New York. The answer is simple we LOVE our clients!
Prize includes return Airfare – Economy – from Toronto to New York City from Friday-Sunday, includes 2 nights accommodation at W Hotel New York – Times Square+ limousine service from Laguardia to W Hotel-Times Square & return from W Hotel to Laguardia on departure. Taxes are included.
We are asking all of our 2010 Toronto Wedding Clients to submit their best video while on honeymoon whether you are in Hawaii , Australia, Africa or Muskoka etc….. with a little clip on their experience with Eclipse Photography on their wedding day & yes we appreciate creative praise anytime. We spend our time being creative & we now ask our clients to be creative.
Forget about trying to win a trip on the radio or filling out entries online or at your local store. This is the real deal & you probably won’t have a better chance this year or any other year to win an amazing weekend in New York City. So dust off those video cameras or your iphone video or whatever you use is great!
All entries received will receive a gift from Eclipse Photography Inc. after contest closes & winner(s) are announced on January 25, 2011. Judging will be done after the contest closes by employees of Eclipse Photography. The judges decisions are final.
A few tips to get you going in the right direction – shoot the video as RAW as possible, we don’t want any special effects and any professional editing used will be frowned upon. Think of location & time of day of shoot especially if you are on your Honeymoon in an interesting place. Be original with your video, we love to laugh.What we are looking for are down to earth Raves on your experience with Eclipse on your wedding day. This video can also be shot in your backyard if you are not going on a Honeymoon this year.Location will be a small part in judging what we are looking for in content. There is a video in our Blog done by one of our fantastic clients last year that you can check out to get you going. Click on the link below to see a sample of what we are looking for:
