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.

It's always fun to try different areas and styles, the models also enjoy it;

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.

Next shoots planned, beginning late Nov.  Another post shortly.

-Dow and S/P remain near record highs.  Even though I think it's still bullish, smart people always take some profits.  I do think there may be a small pull back. TJ Maxx and Ross, both selling off record highs, and both reporting earnings this wk.  I'm expecting beats, but I think so is the street, so it may already be priced-in, so take some profits. NO guarantees

I'm sharing an email from a photographer, plus some other things;

...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 may be included to future postings.  This is about working together and helping out. He also bought me a $1 soda, which was worth way more than $1, since it 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.  If I were a new/past photographer, I would show some initiative on this topic.
