DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT:
One Contest. Full Calendar. Big Impact.
Join us for this FREE live training.
SAVE MY SPOTHere's what happens when photographers run a community contest:Â
$1,000,000+
Raised for charities by our students over the past few years.
$21,685
Total revenue for one photographer in a single contest.
$70,000
Raised across two contests in one small market.
74 photographers
Collectively raised over $600,000 for charity in 2024 alone.
IN THIS TRAINING, YOU WILL LEARN:
Why charitable contests convert clients differently than any other marketing you've tried — and the psychology behind why people spend more, share more, and say yes more when a cause is involved.
How one contest can fill 13 spots on your calendar, grow your email list by hundreds, and generate revenue that rivals your best month ever.
The different contest formats that work beyond the calendar — so you can run this system in a way that fits your market and your style.
What it actually takes to get one up and running and why it's moresimple than you think.

This class will be hosted by Nicole Begley from Hair of the Dog Academy - as well as Jes Wasik from Bark & Gold Photography.
Jes has run this contest year after year, building a thriving 6-figure pet photography business and raising tens of thousands of dollars for her local rescue in the process. She's the one who built the system. Nicole is the one who's watched it work for photographers at every level across every market.
Together, they're going to show you exactly why this works — and how you can run one of your own.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to make a difference.

Jessica makes running a calendar contest so easy! All of my questions were answered in the guide, and the steps were really straightforward.
Using Jes's course, I've run the contest twice, raising over $14,000 one year. If you're interested in running a calendar contest, make your life easier and get this course!
I am so grateful for Jessica’s Calendar Contest course. It had everything I needed to run a successful contest from finding sponsors, organizing the entire contest, sample social media posts to promote the contest, email templates for communicating with sponsors and participants as well as great ideas for the photo sessions with the winners and even sharing resources for the different software/programs to use to make the whole process as seamless as possible. Between the contest and calendar sales we raised over $14,000 for the charity and they were beyond grateful and we are already planning our next Calendar Contest. I was able to expand my email list exponentially and not only did the winners purchase packages from the sessions but so far two of the winners have booked family sessions (with dogs) for next year. I would say it was a win/win for all and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without Jessica's course. Thank you so much Jessica for sharing your knowledge and expertise to make this huge task manageable and really fun!
I give Jes’ Calendar Course 5 stars! For three consecutive years, I have followed the essential plan and used the recommended websites for a photo calendar contest fundraiser for the shelter for which I do adoption photos. Each year, we’ve made at least $13k – our highest mark was $17k! And these amounts were from a restricted target audience of shelter alumni…just think what you might do with a broader participation!
Using tips from this course, I outlined a complete plan for the shelter staff, wrote the contest copy, and suggested ideas for enhancing donation opportunities. The shelter was easily able to set everything up and run the contest. I took all the photos and helped design the calendar on the calendar site – final results were a hit!
If you are looking for a great way to raise funds and awareness for your local shelter and/or yourself, check this course out and follow the plan. You have nothing to lose!
