I'll be there and so will Kat.  She was at our YV shoot in April, is probably already a favorite among photographers.

Here's 2 more lovely models attending.  These shoots offer nice locations, low ratios, and low registrations.  This is the 21st of the series.

Models come in waves, we've had some really good models this year.  Photographers only have 1 chance sometimes, per many of our models are getting signed quickly.  Here's another model recently added.

Some info before the info for photographers.  You may arrive earlier at 12:20P to get ready.  Models are expected to begin arriving at 12:45P.  It could be busy about 1:30P, as there's extra models scheduled.  Have a nice weekend.

Try to make it.  I have a feeling most of the models will be there.  I'm in communications with several of them.  Direct email me, as I may not check this thread on the weekend.

Ok, just saw it.
Almost done informing models, there's a couple extra now.  We hope for 5-7 models, but if lucky, could be 8-10.  It's a Low-Ratio shoot, and photographer spots are filled.  It could be really busy around 1:30P-3:00P.  Exchange info during the day.

Ideas:
First of All, BE COMFORTABLE with your choices.  This event is about having fun and getting good pictures, not fighting your clothes. 

Second, if you are a first-time model, don't spend a lot of money on clothes you may wear only once.  Check your closet then your sister's, mother's, or friend's closet.  If nothing works, try thrift/resale shops. 

Third, these are MY CHOICES/IDEAS/SUGGESTIONS.

Kohl's, Sears, Target, Pennys weekly newspaper ads are good places to look for ideas.  The "Event Notes" (above) call for "Fashion and Casual". 

Fashion- think Sunday, Evening (date night), Party (Prom/Graduation/Wedding, not tailgate/BBQ).  Little Black Dress, Summer Sun Dress, Nice Slacks and Blouse (Jacket??) AND HEELS, HEELS, HEELS.  Platforms not required, but Pumps suggested.

Casual- think upscale beach wear (swimsuit cover-up), CRUISE wear, nice shorts or nice (no holes or stone-washed) jeans with blouse/sweater, halter-top, tank top, crop-top.  And HEELS-pumps, HEELS-boots/mock boots, HEELS-sandals, cute flats, sandals or light-weight canvas shoes (deck shoes or Keds).  No cross-trainers, running shoes, or flip-flops. 

Slacks and jeans should be short enough to show-off the shoes, and never long enough to walk on the bottom of the pant-legs with or without shoes. 

Makeup- enhance eyes and lips.  But don't try to use heavy makeup to cover imperfections... it is easier for us photogs to photoshop imperfections then to reduce excessive makeup. 

Lastly, above all, plan to have fun!

Wear whatever works for you!

(The above are MY IDEAS; do not construe these to be every or any other photographer's)

Alan- what you wrote was very astute and discerning. We can only hope that models will read this and take heed.

Next shoot is Aug 5.  There maybe though a special event in between that date.

No Triple Crown winner as 'Another was injured.  Many times in the past, my top pick for the Derby lost, but came back and won this race.  My picks today are Dullahan, Paynter, then Union Rags.  'Rags has the best record, but it may not be his best distance.  But, he may soften up Paynter just enough, so someone else jumps up.  Small bets as the injury was a bummer.

We'll have credits posted shortly.  There may be a small shoot this weekend.  Stocks to my surprise, may rally again today.  Spain received monetary help, which strenghened the euro. Oil also remains low, which could help travel/leisure sectors like gaming, airlines.  If there's a rally, I'm not sure how long it will last.  No guarantees.

Hey Alan.  If around, we may have something in late July, depends what day location is open.  New model below from the looksee.

Hope everyone made Money in stocks.  Another rally covering the past 2wks, UP about 700pts in Dow.  Take profits.  Not sure if it can hold this level.  Ross hit another all-time high.  Up about 50pts pre-split.  No one will blame you for taking some profits. Sell on rises, buy on pull backs.  Lower Oil, watch related stocks, they already begun to run and could surge if lucky.  But, I'm selling quickly per broad market is relatively high. No guarantees, good luck.
