For the past decade, Uncage the Soul Productions has been hosting Photo of the Year, a photography contest and fundraising benefit for a local Outdoor School program.  And in our 10th anniversary contest we received exactly 1,300 photo entries! Thank you to everyone who submitted their photographs!

Over the weekend our esteemed panel of judges sifted through each and every one of those 1,300 entries and chose their favorite Top 100 photos and their top 10 favorite photos for the Youth, Professional, Faces, and Portland categories. Now it’s YOUR job to go to our website and vote on your favorite photos for each category and help us narrow down the Top 100 to a top 10!

See the finalists before anyone else; and help choose the photo that will be crowned the 2011 Photo of the Year!  Live music, fully catered, open bar, and a room full of cool peeps.
