Greetings Dropstitch readers,
Apologies for not updating much recently… i’ve adopted a social hermit persona but I will outfit hunt again soon, I promise!
Anyway, i’ve been invited to take part in Wedding Dress #2- from what I can gather, it’s like Berlin fashion week.
Darryl from StreetClash has organised for another mini street clash competition to take place as part of this cultural festival. There are 23 cities competing and Perth is one of them.
As for how the competition will run, the visitors to the gallery at Wedding Dress #2 will see all of the photographers’ images on the wall, then go to the computers located in the gallery to vote. Voting will go from 1(lowest) – 5 (highest), and will take place on http://weddingdress2.de (not sure if it will be on the main page yet, or elsewhere). It will also run on http://streetclash.blogspot.com , which means that the competition is open to the whole world, although it’s located in Berlin. All the photos will be up together, and will change daily, along with the photos in the gallery.
So, as of tomorrow, I need you to vote!
Cheers, Em x
Count me in!!
You can’t really expect us to vote if you never actually take pictures to post on your blog. It’s give and take. I respect your attempts to blog and I’m sure you have many other commitments but perhaps you shouldn’t be entering competitions and focusing more on the service you are providing. I’m not trying to run you down – I enjoy your blog; I’d just like to see more!
In my opinion John, I don’t provide a ‘service’. I take photos of people when I go out- I get nothing tangible from the experience. I make no money from Dropstitch- it’s not like you’re exchanging a ‘good’ for my ‘service’. I’ve explained why I haven’t been updating as much recently- i’ve started working full time and haven’t got lots of free time on my hands like I once did. There are a lot of street fashion blogs that don’t update that often and that’s because it’s a big effort to get street fashion snaps- a lot of people are too self conscious to have their photo taken and I literally have to ‘hunt’ people- it’s not just a matter of taking my camera with me all the time. I have to go to the places where I think well dressed people will be…
Anyway, I finally have some free time today so i’m heading into Northbridge and the city and i’m hoping to find some outfits but if I don’t, I don’t think i’ve done anyone a dis-service.
what’s wrong with entering a contest?
Don’t listen to him Emma, I think you’re doing a fine job!! And your work in Xpress has been great too!
Really these dresses are lovely and beautiful.
I think these dresses are very hot. Thanks a lot
