• Multiple images and videos accepted per submission: you may submit as many photos as you would like with your entry (within reason). We would appreciate it if you did not exceed five photos and videos per submission.

• Don't be afraid to show off surrounding landscape. We love to see our sheds immersed in lavish backyard settings (pools, gardens, etc.)
• Make sure the entire shed (or a majority of it) is in the frame.
• Clean the shed to look like new.
• Make sure landscaping such as grass, flowers or trees are trimmed and not covering too much of the shed.
• Don’t zoom – it lowers the quality.
• Make sure iPhone/Android camera is in focus.
• Make sure your camera lens is clean.
• Lighting is best when the sun is behind you (the photographer).
• Landscape (horizontal) orientation works best for showing more.
• People don’t need to be in the shot but we would consider that a bonus!
• When holding the camera up, point it at the shed and tap the screen in the middle of your shed. This will automatically focus your camera and help avoid blurry photos!
