Hi Miki

Thanks for your support. I have added you to the list (Philippines). When you move back to the US, I will amend your listing. I thought that for a time at least it would be nice to have you available on the islands.

As I often work with Newbie models and find that I mentor them anyway, I would be happy to offer my help. At this point I feel I have more to offer Models than I do young photographers. I have just moved to the northwest. I am living in Vancouver BC, but will be working also in Seattle, Portland and California, when possible.

Hi Nina

I'm game, but lots o luck finding somebody I've worked with.  I've posted about the no show problem more than once.  A reference? I can only think of one, if he remembers me after all these years.

Hi,

I am available to help new models break into modeling and critique their portfolios through this program. 

As many of you know, I am extremely active with this site.  I'm well connected with many of Model Mayhem's top photographers (in part through the site's Picture of the Day and Picture of the Day - Original Edition competitions, which I host) and work with many new models.

Simply let me know what I can do to help. 

Take care,
T. R. Willmitch

Hi T R

We're in Vancouver, WA (aka near Portland, OR).

Love collaborating, sharing techniques, trying things out together, discussing how things are done in existing work and trying to put them into practice in the studio.

If having a place for mentors and students to learn, or newbies to come and practice in our studio (or on location) and ask questions without feeling TOO intimidated by a Pro, qualifies us for this list - please put us down.

The first time I tried a mentor relationship I discovered the gap between where I was in my learning and where the mentor was in his experience was too great so I went back to fiddling around solo for a while longer so I didn't feel so intimidated.

Having a "Starting Out Mentor" that is a stepping stone before hitting up a real Pro, might be exactly what someone is looking for. We're very laid back and fun. To which any of the people we've worked with will attest to.

But if we don't meet the criteria for this list, that's okay. Just wanted to offer. smile
