I'm Toothpick Ted... First time poster (on this thread), but Long time LURKER.  Haha. 

I've been following the action on this here thread since the last cruise took place.  I'm happy to say that I've decided to join you all on this years adventure!!!!  I'm honored to sponsor the beautiful and photogenic "Mikhailey" (M Kay Hailey Ray).   Here's some images we recently did together here in San Jose (CA).

I look forward to meeting and shooting with you all... and especially creating some Stunning images with my hottie model!!!!

Gary, you should do this 2ce a Year, so many people are interested in the cruise

Nah... once a year is enough of this insanity for me.  After doing 4 previous cruiseboat photoshoots, when YOU are the one hosting it... it's MUCH MORE like work... and alittle less like fun.  And lets NOT forget... there is ZERO pay involved here...

I'm all for inviting Keri Ann to some of the SM photoshoots, so she could properly present herself to potential photog sponsors.

Hey James... just sent her a PM invite to the Feb 16th shoot.  Lets hope she can make it...
