How many photoshoots did you do in 2012?
From MM, 130ish. Dec 09 12 09:32 pm Link 2012 ain't over yet. i'll get back to you. Dec 09 12 10:11 pm Link Jordan Bunniie wrote: Awesome !!! Dec 09 12 10:16 pm Link I must have done about 213 shoots this year it was a slow year since i moved out of my other location where i was very freeway close. For the majority of the time i shot with local Modelymayhem Models helping them to develope their portfolios. Dec 09 12 10:22 pm Link Hmm good question.... Looks like the total was 65 shoots, including 7 that were multi-day/multi-session so I don't know what that would add-up to. I had three shoots that were "meh", no flakes and shot with 26 "new to me" models. Haven't shot much since the weather and light went to crap in October and will do 1 or 2 more shoots before the end of the year. In short, it was an excellent year. Time to start planning next year..... Dec 09 12 10:33 pm Link I did just over 400 paid photo shoots this year so far. That does not include team sports or events. About 30 TF/Cd shoots. Most of my advertising was done on Facebook. Www.facebook.com/bcmarions www.marionsstudio.com Dec 09 12 10:36 pm Link Not a lot, let down by a lot of people, not that I am trying to be negative, at least I've known what some are like though Dec 10 12 10:22 am Link Over 200 paid client shoots, 40 + workshops and dozens of private lessons. 2012 was a great year. Toronto is a great place to do business. Dec 10 12 10:34 am Link I average about 2 shoots a week so close to 100 this year. Real numbers are for book keepers... wait, that's me too! Dec 10 12 10:41 am Link Over 180. Often will do multiple model shoots in one day.

I like to have fun with shoots even if some are for a serious matter. Dec 10 12 11:20 am Link Zero so far. Seems nobody wants to do testing nowadays. Sigh. Dec 10 12 11:25 am Link Four so far, but there was three months where I was not physically able to shoot. I have a couple of potential shoots that could happen before years end. Dec 10 12 11:29 am Link 55 so far in 2012. 2 or 3 more to go. Dec 10 12 11:38 am Link 37 so far with MM models with a few more scheduled. -- Martin Dec 10 12 11:50 am Link Commercial - 15. MM - 0. Dec 10 12 11:59 am Link For just the models from MM - 28. Dec 10 12 01:11 pm Link i think about maybe 30? for a while it was one to three a weekend and toward the end it sorta tapered off a bit. Dec 10 12 05:37 pm Link So far 110 but I still have some remaining before the end of the year. A few new tear sheets this year and met many new clients Great year for me Tiff www.tiffineyc.com Dec 10 12 05:48 pm Link Just counted and I seem to have done 97 this year! Though there have probably been more that I haven't documented or got any photos from... Dec 11 12 04:23 am Link I'd estimate about 300 paid corporate/industrial shoots including about 10 aerial jobs. MM model shoots = Zero. I give credit to those photographers who can make working with models profitable, but for me and most others that's not going to happen. Dec 11 12 04:40 am Link 70ish. Most were in January, March, May and September. For some reason nobody wants to shoot in late January or February or in the summer. In September I shot 17 models, five or six of them twice. Never again until I become full-time. Seven more scheduled this month. There are others in the works, and 1-2 of which may materialize before the end of the year. Dec 11 12 05:00 am Link Only 2 photoshoots with a llamas this year. I make my living painting Maine landscapes, so I was concentrating more on that this year. While my pastel figure paintings get praise from everyone who sees them, I have not found a suitable gallery to sell them in yet. So, 2 photshoots = 3 figure paintings, and dozens of drawings = $00.00 Maine landscapes = dozens of paintings = $Pay Dec 11 12 05:16 am Link 41 shoots, which is a lot for me since I do this for fun and not professionally. Dec 11 12 05:39 am Link 10 so far, but I only started in October, so I'm still pretty new at this. Once I get better, then hopefully, I'll start doing more. Dec 11 12 05:45 am Link For me; i took part in 31 photo shoots in 2012. 10 of those shoots came through Model Mayhem. My most memorable photo shoot of 2012; one particular shoot April in a water-logged field. We had to use umbrellas... because it'd rained non-stop for almost a week and we were running out time Dec 11 12 06:00 am Link 4: * A traveling trip that lasted 3 days with the same 2 models * A brief mountain trip where I only ended up with 3 photos * A trip to an abandoned factory with 2 models * A brief hotel room shoot during travel :-| And of the 7 models those shoots included, there is a total of 1 picture being displayed by one of those models. Probably why I don't shoot much. Becauss I suck. Dec 11 12 06:14 am Link This was my first year on here (joined in the spring). I have done 4-5 shots on a TF basis. Not a whole lot but I am selective since I don't get paid- I factor in location (gas money), their portfolio, and what we are doing. If I shot nude, I would have shot a lot more. Dec 11 12 07:46 am Link Dec 13 12 03:49 pm Link lol...I thought this said "how many photographers did you do in 2012?" From MM, *photoshoots... maybe 6 Dec 13 12 03:56 pm Link Not as many as I would have liked, but more than last year so that is a plus Dec 13 12 04:00 pm Link For me, around 350, including advertising/commercial, model/actor portfolios, maternaty, weddings, boudoir and real estate.....I'm looking forward to 2 weeks off over Christmas :-). Dec 13 12 04:48 pm Link I did 18 with at least 20 different models. I scheduled a lot more than that but had a lot of flakes. I missed a couple due to bad weather and didn't reschedule for whatever reason. Now that I know what to do, I'll do more next year. Dec 13 12 04:55 pm Link Off the top of my head: * 100s of dogs * 1000s of children * 100+ events * president Obama twice and the first/ second ladies and VP Biden * can't even count how many politicians/ political events * hurricane Sandy *100+ business people MM= 0 Dec 13 12 06:21 pm Link 20+ish. I usually only shoot on weekends, and am only a hobbyist (at this point) so its generally for trade/fun. Still pretty decent I suppose. Dec 13 12 06:29 pm Link 7, that's what I get for living in the desert!!;-(( Dec 13 12 06:34 pm Link 19 shoots with models, including a couple short video clips. This is just a hobby, so I dont want to get too busy, I target about 2 a month, I fell a little short this year. Most memorable? a g/g shoot where we were all overcome by fit of the giggles--took 20 minutes to recover enough to shoot again.......dont remember now what set us off Dec 13 12 06:51 pm Link Paolo Diavolo wrote: This is really my first year of 'being' a photographer and actually shooting sessions regularly, and I only started in March. But I have done 36 full shoots (and a few mini-shoots). I still have 3 more booked in December and might squeeze another in to make 40. Dec 13 12 10:42 pm Link Zero Dec 13 12 10:44 pm Link |
