Live Call Replay - Unleashed Challenges Insider
Over 100 photographers joined us live for this action-packed call - here's what we covered.
We announced the Grid Games free challenge winners live, revealing the Top 20 and Top 10 in both the Newcomer tier (83 submissions!) and the Veteran tier (71 submissions). We reviewed 153 images, and the standard was seriously impressive.
We were also joined by five incredible past challenge alumni - Erica, Angela, Chantal, Yvonne, and Sherry - who shared honest, personal stories about how the challenges changed their photography, their creative confidence, and in some cases, even their relationship with their dogs. These conversations alone are worth watching for.
We broke down exactly how the Unleashed Challenge courses work, what to expect, and as a fun way to end the call, answered some rapid-fire pet photography questions.
One very lucky attendee, Nicki, walked away with a complimentary Embark 2026 enrolment thanks to our live prize draw. 🎉
Oh, and we may have surprised everyone who attended live with a bonus gift too. You'll have to watch to find out what it was!
Embark 2026 is open for enrolment until the end of April, with the course starting 1 May 2026.
