The Nerve Amateur Photo Contest

« With digital photography, don’t be afraid to take many shots of just one subject. A special photo usually takes many shots to create, and with digital, the ability to erase the mundane ones is a great advantage. »

The Nerve Amateur Photo Contest For six years, Nerve has showcased the hottest work from some of the world’s best photographers. That’s been great and all, but it leaves one small problem: There are lots of people who don’t happen to be among the best photographers in the world but still like to take sexy pictures. The Nerve Photo Contest is our way of welcoming the rest of you into our community of creative hedonists. Much more importantly, the contest is the excuse you’ve been waiting for — now you can ask that really hot girl/guy who lives down the block to pose for you.

The Prize: $500 for first place.
