Hello everyone! This is not a blog, but more of a pre-blog series of the up coming week. I have 5 photo shoots within a 10 day period. It is my intention to share my experiences one at a time as they happen. Possible try to give newer models a sense of security. I know its scary going to a photo shoot with a photographer you have never met personally before, but after awhile you get used to it, and start to enjoy the experience of meeting new people. Now im not saying security is not important, its always important. There are always people out there trying to take advantage of other people and trying to hurt other people. So safety first! When a photographer contacts me I always check out their business, if they have one. If not I check out their name. If they are a brand new starting photographer neither of these will work, and in that instance you may request to bring an escort. Red flags to look for: If they ask you to deposit money into your account and then send money to an unknown persons. This is a scam, and its a fake check. The bank will hold you responsible for all the money. This is kinda vague but if they seem suspicious or unprofessional in any way. Asking for nude pictures, asking to skype are examples. These are only a few red flags, but you do need to have a sense of your own safety. Only you can judge what is real and what is not. Oh! random thought, also ask the photographer for all the information before the shoot, so you know exactly what to expect.
Anywho, My shoots are on the 16, 17, 19, 20, and the 25th.
16th will be a photo salon with 2 different photographers, and several models. Anywhere between 2 and 8 can show up. Ideally 4 or 5 is best. But its a time to try new things and have fun, and meet other models and photographers.
17th is just a expand your book shoot. No golas are set, no plans, just going to have fun, shoot ideas back and forth and see what we can come up with. It should be fun.
19th is a night shoot, and we shall be “Jumping” in and out of the car, driving around to different places to get several different looks.
20th is an artistic shoot done in a studio with lots of mirrors. We are trying to recreate a photo called “Sheer Beauty”. We also want to experiment with a blue light seeing what we can come up with there.
25th is a car shoot for a calendar, some amazing cars too! Im excited, I love cars, and these are super pretty cars. Plus, it will be interesting to see what will happen with the cars. Its a bit bigger than any prop I have used before. If fact its almost that im the prop, not the car.
So those are the outlines. I will share my experiences as they happen, on here.
