As the name implies, Headshot of the Week (HOTW) runs every week—but eligibility rotates to keep things interesting and fair for our members. There are three variations:

  • Standard HOTW – Open to all Coaching Group members who haven’t yet won twice.
  • Winners Circle – For members who’ve previously won a HOTW or HOTM contest.
  • Associate Showdown – Exclusively for official Associate Photographers.

These rotate in the following order: Standard, Winners, Standard, Associates—so there are two Standard contests each month.

This week's contest: Standard HOTW

This contest is open to all Coaching Group members. It’s your chance to get feedback on your latest headshot work from Peter Hurley and the Crew during a Zoom Crew Cast. Every entry receives a live critique during the broadcast, finalists are selected, and the community votes to choose the winner.

You’re eligible to win the standard HOTW contest up to two times. If you’ve ever won a HOTW or Headshot of the Month (HOTM) contest, you’re also eligible to enter the Winners Circle, our contest for previous champions. There’s no limit to how many times you can win in the Winners Circle—so keep bringing the heat!

Congratulations to the winner!

Awesome job on that mask!

We are doing a creative one this week. Due to social distancing and isolation, we are going to go with a selfie.

The selfie must be taken with a mask on that is not one that could be purchased or is meant to be used by a healthcare professional. Please get as creative as you like!

It doesn't matter what you believe about whether or not we should be wearing a mask during this time, we all agree that healthcare workers should be our priority here. This is just a fun thing for us to do to mix things up and get what I'm sure will be some really interesting and entertaining photos during this difficult time. I first wore a mask on my flight from Australia back to the US. I've kept it on when I go outside because I am unsure as to whether I am infected. I don't want  to be responsible for giving it to anyone else, if it doesn't do a thing then it certainly can't hurt wearing it. My wife bought it at a hardware store a week before I left for Australia and made me take it with me. Guess I'm glad she did. 

All crew members are welcome to play on this one, that includes me, Mentors and Associates. Have fun with it PEOPLE! 

Active members of the Headshot Crew Coaching Program who have won fewer than two Headshot of the Week contests may enter.

Shots are taken between March 30th and March 31st? That's a short timeframe.

It’s a schmillimeter in the time/space continuum.

They're trying to see if we can read and follow the rules!?

I just entered for my first time. It was a fun project!

MISSED IT BY A MINUTE! :(

I'm trying to enter my own contest and it won't work!!!

COULD YOU EXTEND THE DEADLINE ??

That's because it's after the submission time deadline.

I missed it too! Please re-open it! :)
