Can anyone devote 8 message from your allowed 15 and convince more people to come to the meet and greet, the shoot out, or even get involved here... i would love to see some new faces, some new intake, and some more chit chatter.

i have hit up some people with a combination of emails, tags, or bribery of LISTS to get noticed.... maybe it takes more than 500 words in a email to get people to even respond to ya these days...

the mods are kinda cool when they are filtering out the trash of mayhem, but sometimes come down on people for the smallest and petty stuff...

Just a heads up for photographers wanting to shoot with me: The first 7 pics in my port are the latest. I will be doing a shoot this weekend that will show off how my body looks at the moment(aka "Nakey shots" tongue ) and ill post a few on my page.  I read a thread last night talking about a model who showed up looking heavier than she stated, so I want to make sure you guys see what you will be working with. smile

Something else Im going to do is Try and Confirm and Finalize the list of Attendees by the 16th. Its starting to look like we are going to have alot of people show up, but its still too soon and things come up. I wouldnt want to havfe over 70 people on the guest list only to have less than half show up. Remember, If we reach over 70 People, we get the spare room at no extra cost. So Photographers, feel free to invite Models that you have worked with if they havent heard of this event yet. And models, Let your photographers know about this as well.

This is behind the scene of the shoot on monday, paparazzi style. I took this after everything was done. I showed up late with a camera.

At least we feed our models.

P.S.

I hope Brittany doesn't mind I posted this picture.

Just a Friendly reminder, This event isnt one of those HUGE workshops that will cost you Hundreds of Dollars just to attend. This is a FREE event and all you will be paying for is the food you order.

We arent going to charge you for showing a "Lighting" technique. We arent going to charge you for talking to our models or having them stand Naked while you practice your photography. We arent going to charge you for a "photoshop Seminar".

We are simply providing a place in THE REAL WORLD for Models and Photographers to actually meet, Network in person, get to know each other and possibly work together. I just wanted to clarify that because I see alot of Event threads that cost an arm and a leg just to attend and I was afraid that people might be intimidated to show up here. This is a FREE ADMISSION event.

So come and Join the fun. Dont be surprised if after showing up you find yourselves doing a photoshoot this weekend and updated the ports

I have to applaud you Mr Main Man, you really covered all the bases... now we just need to have MORE models and MORE photogs and OTHERS to get more involved in here.

I would hate to see models come to the meet and greet and not know 1 person.

I mean we are trying to show them we are a "fun bunch" to be around, and we try to give them better pictures than some TFP photogs are giving them. 

Yes, it is a "paid entry" to the GREAT LAS VEGAS SHOOTOUT,
https://s682.photobucket.com/albums/vv181/belle01/GLSO.jpg

but models, you cant always get everythng for free.. You models are paying your dues, you have to invest some money in order to become noticeable {and thats a fact!} so invest in some quality shooters to MAKE YOU LOOK GOOD!!!

Bump Before I go to tahoe and get NAKEY. HAHAHA And ya, Im going on "HIATUS" after my trip to Vegas. I need some time to STEP UP my game. Im seeing things on here that I need to improve on and Im going to step away for a while and better myself. Plus, if someone as established as myself cant even get paid shoots while others install rates as soon as they start and are makin this thier "living", then I really need to go back to the drawing board and figure out what Im doing wrong. And I need to get back in contest shape. So this is litterally going to be the last chance to Shoot with The Main Man for this year and possibly, forever. smile

Hello Everyone!
I'm going to try to make it to the meet if the photog I'm working with on that day will work with me to change the time of our shoot. Hopefully all will work out so I can do both! Hope to see you there!!

I will most definitely be at El Jefe's for the Meet, Greet, and Eat.  I'm ready for some serious Vegas networking.  Oh yeah, and some fun too.
See most of you there, I hope.

I'm thinking about the shootout and if I somehow make some money between now and then, I'd really like to participate in that too, but for now, it's a probably not.  Unfortunately.


Harold's candid picture made me giggle- what an expressive shot for something taken on accident.


Anyways, see you all on the eighteenth.
