Hey can we get a couple of the Pretty Fearless Models (PFM) in to join this Ed?

I'm confused. I thought PFM was your gig. Any model is welcome to attend. They just need to tell me they want to come so I can add them to the list.

As a polite reminder, this is a TRADE shoot - promotional release only. People will need to negotiate a commercial release if image usage is going to be commercial.

Wow I think we need to recruit some more photographers! yikes! gonna be sooooo much fun! I can hardly stand it! muah xoxoxo

As much as I'd like to have your gorgeous look, strong talent, creative wardrobe and awesome personality all to myself, we do need more photographers.

We can't have gorgous models standing around waiting to be shot. In fact, I don't want anyone standing around. We need to all be getting our "create" on full time.

Jason, your do insane work and Spring Fever 2 will be a much better event when your talent is added to the mix. It is trade for everyone. That includes hair and makeup.

Almost all group organizers charge photographers for admission to their events (we've worked together at some of these events). In most cases, those funds are used to for model gas money-base, location fees, and hair/makeup people and last, but not least organizers "profit".

I do not charge anyone to attend Spring Fever 2. With no revenue, it is a loss for Ed, but a huge win in the images produced, friendships formed/strengthened, and information exchanged. Everyone will get to create with people they normally couldn't.

One final thought to add - Since this is pure trade, I expect everyone to work together on concepts. Spring Fever 2 would be a opportunity for you to do what you want to do. I'd like nothing more than to see you have your creative way.

Hi Jason. I've put you at the top of the hairstylist list. I hope you can bring a whole van fun of talent up with you.

Have at the list and collaborate away. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

I will find a way a get you power. We'll either drag down a generator or leverage someone that lives close by. ;-)

As for a place to stay the night before. Maybe a Spring Fever 2 participant has a place to crash - if so, please get in touch with Jason. That failing - there is a new holiday inn express - by Herndon and 99. (7191 W. Kathryn Ave, Fresno, CA
(800) 465-4329 ). There are a few hotels by 41/Herndon or 99/Herndon or along Shaw between 99 and 41.

Lasher Photographer (Sal) also owns ClubFly's which does event photography - mostly nightclubs. I'll volunteer him to tell you where to find the entertainment. ;-)
