>Photographers.  $29. Paypal needed. No refunds. Limited Spots.  Section 47 program not offered.

Photographers with 1 light stand with strobe, Maybe.  Camera flash on camera OK.

Why Money is NOT Collected at Public Parks.  This was added per photographers asking about it. You're Not Allowed to Collect Money, unless you have a Commercial Permit.  I.E. Selling admission and food.  Collecting Money is one of the best ways to get shut-down and cited.  They could also confiscate the money, plus equipment.  Do you want that?

There's some exceptions for collections at Private Parks, If granted permission.  But, usually for Public, you'll need something like a Carnival Permit.  Selling food equals Health Inspection and Vending Permit.  You can see where this goes.

The management does NOT allow for their name or address to be used.  Please ask questions Prior to date.  Don't wait too long.  Directions sent 3 days prior.

Here's the best way to contact;  -Contact with availability.

It's Highly recommended to include availability, even if tentative.  If you're available on different dates within the date Range, give the days and times you're available.  (Avoid; Tell me the details, or When is it and I'll let you know if I can make it.) 

Be open to Helping-Out.  Appreciate it.  We want photographers to work with all models, or most models.  If there's 1 to 3 models, work with all.  4 or more models, work with most.  Nothing looks worse than standing around.  If you want certain models, then bring them.  It's a group shoot, ask.  The Registration when applicable goes towards permit and snacks/beverages.

Adding photo from separate shoot on this post.

Great times for everyone.  We used 4 locations.  There was even another shoot, that I would really like someone to join in the future, photo also up shortly.  The models were very happy.

Sharing an email from a photographer, Nov;
...I really appreciated the opportunity to join you.  Although I was only able to make 1 day, it was a pleasure to work with a model. Knowing how much time goes into finding models, I want to say a Big Thanks.  ...It was nice chatting and learning when yu get a permit, you need to go there at least Twice since you pay first. WoW! You do alot. ..I can't see how people dont appreciate that. ...PS you have beautiful models!

-This is about working together and helping out. He also bought me a $1 soda, and told me This Was Appreciated.  On Another day, a parent brought me 2 drinks, there waiting for me.  That's not required, but we're going in the Right Direction.

There was Another Shoot, indoors with a makeup artist.  Deedee (madeupgirl) did a great job.  In the future, I would like another photographer to join sometimes.  You'll need to be registered at a school. It can also be done without mua.

I'm sorry, I'm just a bit lost... do you need models for this?

Would love to be considered to take part!

Shoots planned for this weekend.  We may also have one on a weekday, based upon weather.  There's also another property open in Yucca Valley.  More shortly.

-see the forum is back to a workable 1 category

I can make Sunday's shoot, 12/14.

for Yucca Valley;  Property available Dec 18-22.  If we do a shoot, it will be aimed for weekend, and a new post made.  It's 1 acre+, with an unfurnished home.  Indoors and outdoors.  Window light or strobe indoors.  Advantage of a home is that you have some cover. The shoot can be one of two ways.  Fashion to bikini with 2-4 models.  Or, fashion to lingerie with 1-2 models.  Either format, models receive some money and photos.  Management will be adding the most money.  Maybe for 1st format is a photographer may bring a model and give them their registration.  Right now weather forecast is clear, we'll decide soon

Opening for 1 photographer on Sunday, 12P-, Pomona.  Currently 2 models, maybe be 3 if there's another photog soon.  Like 1on1 style.  Sat also a possible, model not yet confirmed. But you'll need to register now to include it, tonite too late. $28 registration.
-12/12 6:00P, Sat closed, Sunday only

Really nice weather this past weekend, and met some new people. Update on Yucca V is pending, most likely date Sun 21, afternoon.  We have location and budget.  Currently viewing the weather and proximity to x-mas, which factors on models.  We're considering 1of2 formats, one is lessor registration for photographers.  If you're an interested photog, you may contact.

Favorable weather for the 21st.  Now checking availability with models, which determines everything. Some info; Likely 12:30P-3:30P.  It's a large lot. Home is empty and they're modest homes. Photogs may use a lightstand and window light.  If there's a private shoot, you can use more than 1 stand

New model, at the arch;

New model.

Next series of shoots starting soon

Next series begins this weekend.  It may run into part of Feb.  Opening for a new photographer.  Registration covers several dates.

-Stocks.  Market down 130, at 17372.  We're seeing volatility for many reasons, including profit taking from last yr, Declining Oil, relatively strong dollar, and some foreign issues.  With falling conditions like Oil, they tend to break Below round numbers, like $50, so maybe $40.  But, we have a relatively good US economy.  Under volatile times, sometimes it's good to sell a little on rises and buy a little on declines.  With low interest rates, steady stocks that pay dividends and raise them tend to not fall as much.  IE. utilities, top performers of 2014.  Telecoms though are relatively low, but with attractive yields.  But when interest rates rise, these stocks may fall.  No guarantees, good luck
