Your Shot at a One-of-a-Kind Photo Adventure with Chris Burkard
This isn’t just a contest. It’s your chance to step behind the lens and into the wild with one of the world’s most iconic outdoor photographers.
The Grand Prize is a once-in-a-lifetime adventure with Chris Burkard in the Swiss Alps tailored for photography and exploration. You’ll join Chris for an unforgettable mountain shoot, capturing the kinds of moments most people only dream of — and learning directly from a master of light, landscape, and storytelling.
But that’s not all — the winner will also receive two plane tickets to Switzerland with SWISS, a premium Leica SL2-S camera setup, and a full gear kit from Mammut to keep you mountain-ready.
Each Category Winner will also receive Mammut gear, a guided mountain experience with ZERMATTERS including 2 nights’ accommodation, innovative storage media gear from Angelbird, an All in One annual subscription to Capture One Photo Software, and more.
