We are closing in on our 4th year of Orlando Meet & Greets and we are changing up the format a little bit...

We have a new awesome location that is visually stunning and provides excellent backdrops for shooting

We are bringing in 3-4 lovely professional models who's entire job is to take turns being shot by you.  In addition to the dozens of local models who come ready to shoot.

We have changed the hours to make it easier for models and photographers to meet up and shoot some great photos

We are providing some great snack foods and drink specials.  If you are hungry for more the bar has a great menu.

We are also offering special VIP early bird access from 12-2PM for a small additional fee to have shooting privileges  with the event models.

AND MANY MORE...



https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v620/walker1812/rulesbanner.jpg

We shall be posting the rules here as well as suggestions for photographers and models.  Basically don't do anything that will make us kick you out.

https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v620/walker1812/infoformodels.jpg

First off, looking at the location, an outfit that goes well with yellow might be a good idea if you want to shoot.  If you want to shoot then dress your best or most creative.  Make it fun, interesting and portfolio worthy.  Make it retro, glam, clubwear, even cosplay.  We won't be shooting nudes or lingerie at this event.

Bring some business cards with your photo and info on them to hand out to photographers so they can both remember who you are and contact you for later gigs.  Photographers are visual creatures, they will remember your face longer than your name.

https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v620/walker1812/infoforphotogs.jpg

Don't forget to bring your camera, your portfolio and your business cards.

You can bring your lights, just know that we aren't responsible for your equipment. So don't leave them unattended.

Always ask permission before shooting a model at the event and don't shoot over the shoulder of another photographer without asking their permission as well.

Only the event models are specifically there to be shot by everyone.  So if another model declines an invitation to shoot with you, don't take it personal.

Event models are in the capable organizational hands of Howie... but models are more than welcome to come and be shot by anyone.

Are you looking for makeup artists to come early and makeup the models? I just did a fashion show here. Great choice of venue.

That's a good question.  I'm not in charge of finding the event models but when i figure out who they are i will see what they need.  Thank you.  You coming even if we don't need you for the event models?
