Saint Petersburg, Florida, US

The next in the traveling series of Tampa Bay Meet and Greets is set! We'll be gathering hundreds of photographers, models, and muas for another event Saturday, November 8 @ 3pm.

BACK TO CRABBY BILLS ONE MORE TIME SINCE THE WEATHER WILL BE NICE IN NOVEMBER
SUNSET WILL BE AT 5:42 WHEN THAT GLOWING BALL OF HOTNESS HITS THE WATER, NO NOT HER, THE OTHER GLOWING BALL OF HOTNESS


CRABBY BILLS
401 GULF BOULEVARD
INDIAN ROCKS BEACH, FL 33785
727-595-4825
MAP TO THE LOCATION


MEET & GREET INFO

Photographers - Chance to mingle, meet, network, get your questions answered in person by any one of your peers, eyeball potential models for future assignments before you book them, meet new models that you never knew looked so good that you definately will book in the future.

Models - Chance to mingle, meet, network, network, network and start booking shoots. There will be a lot of photogs there. If you can't book work out of a meet & greet, or at least talk to a photog about booking in the future, you need to rethink your approach to this business. Cause seriously, there are guys there looking to shoot.

MUA's - Again...network, network, network. I actually feel that you have the hardest job of booking work of all the parties involved in a shoot. And to be given an opportunity to make personal pitches to 50, 80, 100 people... That's a no brainer.

Pm me now to get on the list, OR, you could post in the thread proclaiming your fervent desire to attend.

Current attendees that you want to contact to set up a beach shoot include:

Is Hana allowed to make an "appearance"?
I know we have a PG rating for our event wink
maybe an NC-17 presentation?

Edit: And I guess yes.  Both ports listed.  I'll be networking that way anyway smile

Not really so much
It's kind of an "Open Air" event
Inside but not private by any means

But if you go over to the beach to shoot the sunset there may be options
Might want to give JoeyK a P.M.
He's pretty adept at making that happen out there

Hey Carl, I was wondering if having a list of people who are planning on shooting might be a good idea.. Then people would know who's bringing gear and not just drinking beer!!

Just a thought.

Keep me on the list.
November 8th should be fine, will be in Miami the 2nd thru the 7th for swimwear location.

( going to be assisting and asset managing for a, yet TBD, high powered shooter from either NYC or LA...)

Driving back late Friday night, and since I won't be shooting this time in Miami I may just be itching to shoot someone.
Plus, may learn something new to try out....lol.

Rachael that is dangerously close to "chit -chat".
Listening for alarms....nothing yet.

***Back to very dry impersonal information passing***
Yes Joey, I would be glad to assist in the tagging, perhaps you should send me a private message to co-ordinate our efforts, as to not clog up this thread with non informative communications.
That is all.
