HARA ALLISON PHOTOGRAPHY PRESENTS
Thrift Store
Poppin' Tags & Off the Rack
$20. A thrift store. Ten minutes to shop and ten to shoot.
The challenge: I’ll hand you $20, start a timer, and follow you into the racks. You’ll have just 10 minutes to find something you can style into a memorable portrait.
We’ll capture the entire shopping experience on video, and whatever you find is what we shoot.
No do-overs, stylists or backup options. Just you, your instincts, and whatever treasures the thrift store gods have provided.
Then we take it to the studio, 10 minutes, all in, and we make it iconic.
The best part? Once every model has been photographed, the portraits will be revealed all at once and the public will vote for their favorite — crowning the ultimate thrift store style champion.
The winner receives:
• Bragging rights (obviously)
• $20 (in your pocket)
• A dedicated page on the Hara Allison Photography website with full video and gallery
• An hour portrait session with me, valued at $500
All participants receive this exciting experience, for just $125:
• $20 thrift-store budget, provided by me
• 10 minutes to thrift
• 10-minute studio portrait session
• An edited image gallery
• Short-form video content for your socials
• A social media feature on Hara Allison Photography Instagram and Facebook
• Entry into the public voting competition
Spots are limited — and so is the thrift store's inventory.
Only a handful of models will be chosen for this series. No modeling experience required. Just bring your creativity, sense of humor, and willingness to play.
Let's find out what $20 and 20 minutes can do in the right hands.
