I was planning a large shoot for people around the Cincinnati/Dayton/NKY/Columbus area would like to do a large group shoot.
Any type of photos may be taken, venue and dates unknown.

If interested please message me your email so I can add you to the chain I have going so we can pitch in ideas for dates/venues.

Basically this group will be getting some local people known to each other, since finding people to work with in our area can be hard.

Are you going to post anything here when details come into focus?

Interested in hearing more about this. I vote for Dayton or Columbus as venue for the event.

Hi Karson,

I could be open to letting my large space be used as the venue. Check it out at http://Facebook.com/StudioDayton and message me directly if you are interested.

I am in Toledo but willing to make the trek to the Columbus or Dayton area for a group shoot. I'd also love the opportunity to shoot with you!

Interested for Cincinnati and Dayton and if something good is going on I will go to Columbus, I love new locations and new models

Put me on the list, definitely interested.

I am interested as a model. The furthest I have traveled North is Springfield (Omni warehouse). I live in between Dayton and Cincinnati, so either would be a good idea for me. Put me on the list!

I'd like to get up to Cincy once a year or more, so I'd be interested in group events there if they fit my schedule.

Bump back to the top. What is the word on when this shoot may happen and where?

me too

I am interested as well.

Is anything still in the works?  Interested.

Interested as well if anything ever happens.

It looks like this event has had problems so i am willing to jump in and save the day.  I have i new space that id love to use for a group shoot in Cincinnati.  Its a 4 floor abandoned building i remodeled in the heart of the art district in OTR downtown. We can shoot in an apartment setting.  A two story loft or an open large studio.  It is only 7 blocks from downtown and 13 blocks from the river and bridges. 

I would like to do the shoot at the end of july Saturday and Sunday.  There is space for overnight accommodations at  a minimal fee.  If i get some interest ill start a new event page.  I have quite a few interested models already.

I'd definitely be interested

Interested.  I recommend a posting as a new event to gather more interest. 

Also, There always seems to be a shortage of models at these things.  One idea that i had to remedy this is to charge photographers a fee of $20-50 and use the proceeds to schedule and pay good models that actually show up.  Just a thought...

I would be interested in joining this, should it ever happen!

Hey come join us!! Check it out under (FORUMS - north central US)

Hello fellow MM'ers,

I am hosting a group shoot in downtown Cincinnati on 23 and 24 August 2014 from 10am - 5pm on Saturday and 10am to 2pm on Sunday.  Get the word out!#@!^@^$#!

The location is a Condo building and studio space in the heart of (Over the Rhine) downtown Cincinnati.  There will be two condo's available as well as the open studio.  There are fire escapes and alleys on location as well.  The site is in a very urban environment with plenty of creative opportunities.  It will be an 18+ shoot due to the possibility of exposure to nudity.  There may be a possibility of overnight sleeping availability depended upon the number of visitors.

Photo's of the location will follow soon.

This event will be managed much different than most other group shoots.  There will be group shoots with multiple Photog's and specific model/models and there will be one on one shoots.  Here is the major difference:

Models and Photog's will not schedule shoots during the scheduled times.  Models and photog's will be assigned on the day of the event (a drawing of sorts).  This will ensure that every photog and every model is gainfully employed.  No need to fret about no-shows.

So you ask, How do I plan on ensuring enough models on shoot day???  We all know that no pay equals no show for models and photog's.  So here is the plan!!

Photog's, assistants and all guests:
There will be a prepaid fee $35 for each photog and $10 for all assistants or guest (other than models).  The fee if paid at the door will be $50 for photog's and $25 for guests and assistants.  The first photogs to pay get to draw models first.  Photog's will not be added to the list until payment is received.  I will have a pay-pal account set-up once there is an interest from models and photog's.

Models:
Models of course are free, but they will each get paid a share of 75% (25% expenses) of the money collected from attendees.  The more photo g's that show-up the more the models get paid.  This is an incentive for the models to contact as many photog's as possible.  A formula will be present to ensure each model gets paid appropriately.  Models must contact me through my MM site to be added to the list of attendees.

If you have any other suggestions feel free to post them to the forum.  My MM# is 874311.  My E-mail is [email protected]

SPREAD the WORD!!!!
