Sonoma Forge announces new semi-annual photo contest; winners receive a free faucet (Petaluma, CA, December 6, 2018) Sonoma Forge, the company known for its handcrafted artisan-assembled faucets and tub fillers, dramatic shower systems, and signature “industrial chic” style, announces a nationwide photo contest. Now through July 1, 2019, the company is accepting installation shots of any Sonoma Forge lavatory faucet or shower. The owner of the best photo entry will receive a new WaterBridge lavatory faucet, plus all submissions may potentially be featured on the company’s newly redesigned website and other marketing materials. “We came up with the idea because our customers frequently send us pictures of their faucet or shower installation, and we thought why not make a contest out of it and reward the winner with a very nice prize – a brand new Sonoma Forge faucet. It gives us a chance to reward them for their loyalty, and potentially gives them the chance to showcase their project on our new website and other marketing materials,” says Sonoma Forge president, Erik Ambjor. “We added an expanded image gallery to our new website along with a fresh, new design and smartphone-friendly interface. We’ll feature the best images from the contest in the gallery, giving our customers the opportunity to share their inspiring installations with others shopping for Sonoma Forge products,” adds Ambjor, who will personally select the contest winners. The first winner in the semi-annual photo contest will be announced in July 2019. They will receive a WaterBridge lavatory faucet (retail value up to $1,760) with their choice of spout style and size, volume control, mounting position, and finish. The contest is open to anyone, including homeowners, designers, architects, editors, or any consumer with a Sonoma Forge lavatory faucet or shower installation and rights to the image. Photos may be taken with any kind of camera, including a smartphone. There is no limit to the number of entries that may be submitted or the number of images submitted per entry. Entrants are encouraged to send unedited, high-resolution images that include several shots from a variety of angles. To enter, visit www.sonomaforge.com/contest and follow the instructions. The link includes tips for submitting the best photos as well as important information on usage rights.
