SHOOTING

  • Will I get to shoot with every photographer on the roster? It is possible and depends a lot on scheduling and number of photographers. We understand that some attendees are happy with only shooting a few times throughout the event while some are trying to shoot as much as possible. Our initial orientation is a great opportunity to make introductions and plan shoots with anyone who agrees to shoot with you. You are never forced to shoot with anyone who you would prefer not to shoot with. 

  • How many images should I expect to receive from each photographer I shoot with? We ask each photographer to provide a minimum of 2 retouched images per set. Some Events may have different edit requests. Make sure to visit the Destination Even page for more information. Photographers may offer additional retouched images at cost.

  • How long after the trip will it take to receive my final images? We ask all photographers to distribute retouched images within 30 days after the event has ended. If additional time is needed, it is the photographer’s responsibility to inform you of the revised timeframe.

  • What if a video was shot? Video editing isn’t restricted to a distribution timeframe. We encourage all attendees to discuss details and expectations before shooting so all parties are within fair understanding of intention of all content produced.

  • What image usage rights will I have? This is a collaborative event. As part of the creative team that produces digital content, you can use said content for portfolio and self-promotional use. If you or the photographer are interested in using the content for commercial use, resale or any use outside the perimeters of personal portfolio, you must have all creators sign a release form for that specific commercial purpose(s). Paradise Challenge can provide you with a general release form if you do not have one. Release forms for commercial/print/otherwise are not provided.

  • Can I shoot nudes? This is dependent on the location and legal permissions of the resort/villa as well as the country of the destination. If it is permitted, tasteful nudes are allowed with mutual consent between all creators involved.

  • What if I don’t want to shoot nudes? You are never forced to shoot ANY style you are uncomfortable with or with anyone you would prefer not to shoot with. 

TRAVELING

  • Will I be sharing a room with another guest? We offer different room packages depending on the destination with those options specifically outlined and available when you purchase. Prices vary and roommates are assigned randomly for multiple occupancy rooms unless you specify roommate preference at the time of your registration.
