This contest has ended. Thanks to all who entered. A winner will be posted shortly. For some quick photo goodies check out our freebies section.
To kick off the Lightroom Power LIVE workshop we’re giving away a Lensbaby.
Editing is a powerful thing. It’s how Seim Effects got started after all and it’s what we’ll be mastering in my LR Power LIVE workshop coming in Jan. But great effects start in camera too and part of the goal at Seim Effects is to expand the way we make images and help photographers be more creative. Valued at nearly $300, the Lensbaby Composer is a fun tilt shift style lens that gives a great effect and allows a spot focus controlled by how you set the lens. If you’ve never tried one, you’re missing out.
I carry one on most sessions. It’s not a lens to use for everything, but a great tool to bring out and get creativity flowing with. A good capture and a few Seim Effects get me great finished results like the one above.
The winner will receive a new Lensbaby Composer in any one of the mounts Lensbaby offers (see their site). Contest will close on Jan 14th 2010 at midnight pacific time. A winner will be announced shortly after. This is the first of hopefully many fun contests to come. Enter and enjoy.

If you don’t have a twitter account you’ll need one to enter (it’s time anyways). Tweet exactly whats below or your entry may not be counted. Just copy and paste if you like.

Gavin, Great giveaway!! Got my tweet going which also updates my Facebook!! More exposure for you!! LOL!
Hey Gavin,
Great giveaway, I hope it really boosts the exposure for the podcast and your effect packages. I noticed that the verbatim tweet changed from:
“Win a Lensbaby Composer from @gavinseim and #SeimEffects. Just RT. Details here… http://bit.ly/sfx01”
to
“Win a Lensbaby Composer from @gavinseim & https://www.seimeffects.com. Just follow & RT. Details here: http://bit.ly/sfx01”
Should us early tweeters retweet again or just relax?
Thanks!
Thanks Jesse. It should be fun. No, no need to tweet again. I’ve made a few changes (experimenting) but I’ll be watching both versions and tracking accordingly. Good luck
Beautiful wedding photo! I hope this promotion is successful for you.
