In return, each model is only required to do a SINGLE group shoot as their contribution to covering event expenses. Models are not permitted to run their own competing group shoots. If a model has an idea and wants to have a group shoot, a staff member will be glad to help set it up! Thanks for being there for our modeling and artistic community. -Valerie ☆ ☆ ☆ MEAL SCHEDULE for NiN-7 Lunch included: 1 pm - 2 pm (It is wise to have snacks, drinks, and amenities while on site, especially if you choose to shoot during lunch hours) ☆ ☆ ☆ NIN-7 Schedules The NIN-7 Master Schedule is in the works. Models will be posing for group shoots (limited to five photographers per shoot) for one hour (releases and tips recommended for the model fees). The times for these shall be posted soon! Models have the choice to pose solo or with one or more models for their group shoot. Models are obligated for only one hour group shoot for attendance to this event. This is a NUDE workshop, meaning all models attending are required to shoot nudes. Flowing dresses, skirts, lingerie, swimwear, belts, hats, and accessories intermingled with nude posing are encouraged to add character and elegance to each setting. Models should be cautious of lines caused by said garments at all times, as we all know. COST & PRICE: Models are free to set their own prices. Additionally, Valerie Whitaker is free to choose which models attend, or do not attend, NiN-7. Models providing premium styles (e.g., erotic & explicit) should anticipate higher rates. This is a PHOTOGRAPHY event. Usually, but not always, group sessions start with the model fully nude. However, models WILL be posing nude in each group shoot. **NOTE to MODELS & PHOTOGRAPHERS: Please come prepared!!! Charge any and all digital accessories and bring plenty of memory cards. I suggest that everyone bring ample OFF repellant, Sunscreen, Kleenex, Wet Wipes, etc. Basically anything you would bring if you were camping, just to be prepared. Thanks! ◈ One-on-One Coaching Photographers interested in one-on-one coaching during outdoor lighting seminars can sign up through Valerie Whitaker, Sr. Organizer: [email protected] ◈ ◈ ◈ ◈ This is an official announcement, updates will be posted. We look forward to meeting old friends and making new friends! See you there! Valerie Whitaker, Sr. Organizer (personal email [email protected]) Only email [email protected] for questions STAFF for this event include: Ed, Beauty Outdoors, [email protected] Lee, DCDCphotography Ed Fahrmeier Dave LaBarre, [email protected] Michael Woodward, [email protected] Alex Hooker Wes, Wesley Farquhar LiiLii, Asst. Organizer and Model, [email protected] Apr 17 14 02:00 pm Link Personally I would prefer an event with a more economical straight up entrance fee that did not include group shoots - as an advanced photographer I'm not really interested in group shoots. I prefer to stage light and direct my own shoots. I can understand that this might well be a winning strategy for Nin7 in terms of bringing in more photographers though so I'm not holding my breath :p Apr 20 14 04:36 pm Link Valerie Whitaker wrote: May 01 14 06:56 pm Link I had the pleasure of speaking with the extraordinary and legendary Valerie Whitaker, the lead organizer of NIN-7, last night on the phone. We had a great conversation and she is very optimistic about the event being a success (Yes, it's still on in spite of Stan Goldstein not being able to attend this one. Repeat after me: "NIN-7 is still on in spite of Stan Goldstein not being able to attend this one." Very good! ) and I share her enthusiasm and optimism about the event. Valerie, like me, has an extensive ballet background and is very big on incorporating it in her work and it's one of the main reasons she and her work are such an inspiration to me.May 08 14 05:16 pm Link I still have 5 shoots open. Click the link below to reserve your session with me! http://www.eventbrite.com/o/shandra-sta … s=23773897 May 09 14 02:35 pm Link Just wanted to let all you great photographers (For those of you who have shot with me before, you get a discount! And for all photographers, I offer a discount for multiple hours) attending know that my rates are very reasonable and that I'm anything but a priss when shooting outdoors (One of my favorite and most trusted photographers, Beauty Outdoors, one of the organizers of the event, can happily vouch for me that I was Teflon tough and that I definitely had his mark in a HUGE way in a shoot we did on Skyline Drive, in which we were up for more of the morning, day, and night than not). Is this an awesome combination of awesome traits in a model or what?! May 10 14 10:38 pm Link This is an awesome line-up of models (including moi ), with some really righteous posing skills and work and a wonderful line-up of photographers to capture our abilities and us at our best! The organizers are marvelous too. Dave LaBarre always has a warm, friendly, personable disposition and is happy to help with questions and concerns and is always prompt in doing so (I marvel at how you do it Dave!), the Eds (aka Beauty Outdoors and Ed Fahrmeier), who are two of my favorite and most trusted photographers and are two of the kindest, most giving people you'll ever meet, and liilii, who I had a great conversation with on the phone last night, is one of the sweetest, most generous people you'll ever come across (liilii, you ROCK!).May 14 14 08:00 pm Link Wow! Where do I start?! Let's give it a shot. For starters, thanks to Valerie for being such a sweetheart & putting her heart & soul & then some into this event; Ed (Beauty Outdoors), for always being such a pleasure to work with & hang out with & for making me laugh; Holly, who may be an even bigger goofball than me, with the funniest facial expressions, remarks & jokes & surprise photobombs & hugs; Ed Fahrmeier, who's always an all-round pleasure to work with & chat it up with; Dave LaBarre, with his infectious laugh that when once he started, I started & found it hard to stop; Poul, for sharing his awesome property & for the great conversation and laughs; Eric Petty, Lakota Summers, Amy M, Harry Markel & Fotticelli for the rad conversation and laughs; Mike Warren, who was great fun to shoot with & chat it up with (You gave me some of the most fabulous positive reinforcement!) & anyone else I left out (Shame on me!!!) because I'm bad with names &/or ran out of room).
