Hey all - Have any of you guys worked with stylist, hair, or mua here? I've been having a hard time connecting with people in that area here. Any recommendations?

So just found out that a set we submitted of a local model here  to Met Art was accepted over a year ago.  Never heard a word.. well her shots are now up in Met Art and some other European website  under Ed Lasio (they change the name of the photographer)   so if you all want to check out our work.. Check under MetArt and look under photographer Ed Lasio... that is us!!  Woot...

That the model is actually going to be in town and show up after months of planning with me
(Which has been a huge problem for me this year,especially the past week)

Of course then I have the 2nd prong of dissapoint I had to deal with...weather suckage,icky sky,
water too rough,wind off the water(I had ideal weather and water conditions most of the week too)

I'm thinking about buying a powered ring flash for my Nikon

Does anyone have one they want to sell

And

What have you used that you like?

I have an AB Ring Flash.  Been a long time since I have used it.  Willing to let you borrow it if you want...and then you can decide if you want to buy one.

holy cow sad  yikes.  maybe they found her dirtier stuff.  i've heard they have a holier than thou complex.  they want to be the only site that makes girls lose their clothes and have deleted sets of girls i know whom they later found out did harder core or more taboo stuff on other sites. 

or maybe they're just giant douches.  who knows sad

Finally, no rain...yay! Looks like we'll get scattered stuff all week, but at least the monsoon has temporarily subsided.

Hey gang, I don't do this often, but...if you feel so inclined, could you stop by and offer my (very beautiful) friend Sarah some encouragement on the start of her port? We're collaborating on some really creative concepts, I think you'll enjoy the results...much appreciated smile
