Rockers Bon Jovi are offering one lucky fan the chance to become the band's official tour photographer for a day to raise money for charity.

The Livin' On A Prayer hitmakers will take to the stage at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey on 24 July (13) and one budding snapper will get the chance to take pictures during their first two songs as well as the soundcheck.

The winner will spend the day behind the scenes with the band's official tour photographer David Bergman, who will hand over state-of-the-art Nikon equipment for the shoot and offer advice.

The once in a lifetime experience also includes two tickets to the show and an original Bergman shot signed by the band.

The auction on CharityBuzz.com will close on 1 May (13) and had already reached $8,000 (£5,000) as Wenn went to press, exceeding its $5,000 (£3,125) estimate.

Proceeds from the auction will benefit an education charity in New York City.
