The 6th May is all filled up for this studio shoot now.

Next studio shoots are June 17th, only 2 photographers places left. Also July 8th with places available.
Cost of the shoots just covers the studio hire and model expenses as this is not a profit making shoot, it's just for fun and to get good images to enhance portfolios of you and the models. It beats being out in the rain and has all the facilities to hand.

Only July available now.

Thinking possibly Croma-Green Screen shoot for those who like to put their models on different backgrounds if there is enough interest ?

June 17th is full and ready to go with 3 models and 4 Togs, Will just about cover the costs.

July 8th will also have 3 models on 3 individual sets and again only 4 Togs, with only one slot left. These shoots are just to cover the costs of models expenses and studio.

Contact me for details if interested and may also be arranging external shoots when the weather is better - Possibly Ironbridge / Blist Hill, or Black Country Museum if there is any interest..... again just covering costs.

More shoots being arranged for 2013 in February - April and August. Each of 4 hours in studio with 3 models and 3 sets. Only 4 photographers, so loads of time each on all sets and with all models with various themes.

This is non profit, just sharing cost of models expenses and studio hire. Contact if interested in joining in and for more information.

Hi Malcolm it's good to see that you are still organising these great events.
Could be interested in the February one it the weather is OK
Dave
 
Hi Dave, will PM you with details.

The shoot yesterday went very well. 4 photographers and 3 models for 4 hours of fun at low cost. I always enjoy arranging these shoots and the Feb, Apr and August shoots are still being planned although I already have models lining up and photographers wanting to take up on some.

A very Happy Christmas and best wishes for the New Year to all the models and photographers that have joined me this last year in studio shoots.

More 4 hour studio shoots being prepared for February, April and August, with various themes. Models get some expenses, photographers split cost of studio and model costs, so costs are kept to a minimum..... no profits made at all..... we do it for fun.
 
Just an update ........... April 14th is all booked up and the next one is August 11th, but will still have 4 hours studio time to slot in some other time. If you have any specific ideas, then please discuss as those hours can be used differently with new ideas. All at cost, no profit to be made by anyone as we just split the costs and give models TFCD quality images, plus some expenses. Contact if interested in studio shoots in Birmingham.

Sorry Sukhi, I have only just seen your question. Nothing with the studio shoots now until August, as we have done several this year so far and want to get out and about.

What equipment do you use and where are you located, as you don't mention it on your profile?

Hi Malcolm, i hope you don't mind me interrupting - i'm new here. May I ask, do you have your own studio and models or do you use different studios and source your models from a third party? (I hope you dont mind me asking)

Sorry KC, only just seen your request for information. I use a couple of studios, one in Birmingham TIPTOP and one in Redditch. As for models, I source all models before a shoot and will not work with any model I have not met and talked with. Arranging a coffee meet individually and seeing the model makes all the difference. I am very rarely let down and ensure that the models I use are aware of the requirements for the shoot. I don't pay then as sujch, but will give them £10 for travel expenses, which I feel is fair, together with edited prints ( you decide the number) At the meeting I show them the quality of my work in an A4 folder, so they will know that the prints they get will be good. You can get let down if you only offer TFP and expect something for nothing when you are starting out.

If I can help further, please contact on this site or directly, but I have now moved on to another hobby and don't get involved in photography. It was good fun whilst it lasted..
