The next GREAT SMART PHONE PAC-TOGRAPHY CHALLENGE is Sun, April 2nd, 2023.
Thank you for playing and see you at the next Challenge!

Let’s first start with some FAQ’s about The Great Smart Phone PAC-tography Challenge:
What’s the Great Smart Phone PAC-tography Challenge?
Well, it is a FOUR hour Smart Phone ONLY photo challenge.
When does it take place?
Sunday, April 2nd, 2023 at 2:00pm.
Where does it take place?
Yes, we know it sounds crazy, but YOU and YOUR TEAM pick the spot! Wanna meet at a coffee shop? Grocery store? Your living room? Downtown? An amusement park? You pick where YOU feel you’ll most succeed at the challenge and go from there.
How many people can I have in my team?
Teams consist of 2-6 people.
How old do you have to be to participate?
Own a Smart Phone? Then you can be a participant! There is no age requirement or limit for The Great Smart Phone PAC-tography Challenge.
Do we have to stay at the meeting spot the whole four hours?
No, you can travel as near or as far as you’d like during those four hours, but you MUST travel together as a team.
Why is it only FOUR hours?
Because, well, that’s what makes it a challenge!
Why are ONLY Smart Phone Cameras allowed?
We don’t want any participant to have an unfair advantage over another. While a seasoned photographer might capture better images with their DSLR camera, this challenge is for everyone- beginners to advanced levels. As well, those photographers who shoot with Film cameras will not have enough time to develop the images in four hours. Therefore, in order to make it fair across the board and to be able to allow ANYONE to take part in the challenge, we are only accepting smart phone images for this challenge.
What if I don’t take great pictures with my Smart Phone?
PAC Photographers Group will be providing resources, information, and a link to their “Smart Phone Photography” Class that they offered in May in order to help you snap some amazing pictures. PACPG will also be available for any questions you might have about capturing amazing photos with your Smart Phone prior to the Challenge. Email us at: pacphotogroup@gmail.com.
What does the The Great Smart Phone PAC-tography Challenge entail?
Your team will meet on Sunday, April 2nd at 2:00pm at the location of your choice. At 2:15pm, a link will go LIVE here with the rules and themes. The challenge will consist of eight images, each under a chosen theme. By 6:15pm, you must submit ALL of your images via a submission form that will be posted the day of the challenge. During those four hours, you must photograph, edit (if you choose), title, and submit all of your team’s work. Your team will also have to create a team name as well as a name for each of the submitted images. The goal is to have eight cohesive photos that work together- just as though you were exhibiting them in a show.
