Last week I attended the Atlanta Photography Meetup’s photo shootout, and my camera hasn’t cooled down yet! Thanks to Simplephoto.com and Professional Photo Resources (PPR) for sponsoring the event, it was incredible. This event was a smorgasborg of photography, models and studio lighting. They had about 20 models and about 24 photographers. The good people at PPR had three stations setup with different lighting. Basically, the photographers and models would rotate through the stations so that you had equal time with each model at each station. When you weren’t shooting, in the studio you could go outside and shoot. Also, Eric from simplephoto provided food, snacks and BEER. Yes, BEER. I love beer. At any rate, check out the pics above and if you want to see the rest of them, visit my flickr page, here.
Also, I’d like to thank all the models that participated, you were excellent, especially under those hot tungsten lights, I know it was hard. So big ups to all the models! You guys were fantastic. Also thanks to all the folks at Simplephoto.com and PPR, you guys really know how to put on an event. All you aspiring pro photographers out there should definitely check out PPR and Simplephoto.com. PPR has awesome studio space for rent with reasonable prices, they also rent equipment from bodies to lenses, flashes and accesories. (by the way PPR is having a free lighting seminar on March, 8th; rsvp here before its too late!) Simplephoto is a cool resource as well and allows you to easily sell photos and create photo packages online. So defiantly check ‘em out. Kudos to all the photographers who came out as well, I thought my pictures were great until I saw some of you guys images, great work! And please keep me in the loop about upcoming events!
If you wanna join the Atlanta Photo Meetup, you can do so by signing up here. I’ll see you guys at the lighting seminar in March, Have fun and keep shooting!
