Today we wrapped up the last 6 months of Embark, the first in our Unleashed Challenge series of courses. The awards ceremony was hosted live on Zoom and streamed to the Pet Photography Unleashed Facebook group.

We had the pleasure of announcing all 12 of the individual challenge winners, the overall 3rd, 2nd and 1st place winners for the whole challenge. As well as a couple of special 'Most Improved' awards and a handful of Highly Commended portfolios. 

Amazingly, there were 64 people who completed all 12 challenges by the deadline and WOW, what an inspirational group that set the standard and then blew us away as every challenge went by. If you've been keeping your eyes on the top 10 blog posts, you will no doubt have loved the images as much as we did.
