We believe the best way to experience the Greenbrier Valley is through the moments that stay with you, and we’d love for you to share yours. Through our photo contest, we invite you to show us the places, people and experiences you love, giving others a glimpse of the warmth and friendly character that define the valley.
Each quarter of the year features a different themed photo contest. Cash prizes are awarded for the top three photos: $100 to first place, $75 to second place, and $50 to third place.
September 1 - October 31 NOW OPEN: Your Best Fall Moments
Pro Tip: Look for ways to merge the color and contrast of the fall season with those around you. Maybe it's your family on its annual search for the perfect pumpkin, “Fido” splashing through the forest creek, or you and your plus one taking in the afternoon by canoe. This approach turns a scenic view into a fall favorite worth sharing.
For this contest, Experience Greenbrier Valley is seeking photos that align with the quarterly themes. Submitted images must be taken by the “Contestant,” and are from sites/locations within Greenbrier County, WV.
Over-processed images, images fabricated by GenAI, or those containing inappropriate or political messaging will not be accepted. Professional photographers may submit personal work only; no paid assignments. Please read the official rules before submitting a photo.
Pro Tip: You may submit multiple photos for each themed quarter, but the upload portal accepts only one image at a time.
