Q: What about photographers? What is the contest?
A: Not only do you get to photograph lots of models in a fantasy theme for free but you get to enter your best photo to be published in a magazine and made into a poster! Your photo will be online on all our sites as the winner and credit given to anyone who worked with you.
Q: Will we (models) get a copy of all the photos taken?
A: Yes. The photographers must get you all the full-res photos within 30 days of the shoot. A CD will be send to you or if they have an FTP site, they will be uploaded for a link to be sent for you to get your photos off the site.
Q: How will we know where to go for the photo shoot locations?
A: On Saturday we will load up in as few vehicles as we can and caravan to Area 19 where we have privacy to photo shoot. On Sunday we have models who will take a group to each location. You will have 2 hours per location then you will rotate.
Q: How many models will we have to work with?
A: Minus the models you have already worked with...there will be a sign-up schedule sheet for each photographer and the models will be split up evenly with the photographers. You will rotate the models in the locations and switch off at half day so all the models get a chance to be photographed by as many photographers as possible.
Q: As a model, what do I bring to the shoots?
A: Models, bring skin colored half bras and thongs so you can wear them under any type of outfit. Male models bring a thong. Some outfits do not wear well with boxers.
Bring a number of shoes and anything you think matches up with the fantasy theme.
Look at Time of the Faeries or my pics.
Suggestions: Sheer long material, gauze or cheese cloth, earth tone textures, worn street clothes or light wispy clothes, body paints, feathers, leaves...
Q: I'm a stylist and make-up artist, who do I work with?
A: We hope to have enough make-up artists, body painters, stylists and designers to go around. If not, then we will see how many models can do thier own hair and make-up. SPREAD THE WORD!
Q: Where will be go to change outfits?
A: On Saturday we will have changing tents but on Sunday your photographer will need to bring a sheet and/or you need to bring a robe.
Q: Is there any nudity?
A: Not fot this event. You can have sheer outfits and be suggestive but that is it. Be creative!
Q: Is this an annual event?
A: Yes, each year we will have a different theme, contest and hopefully get more sponsors! Help us make this event really big by advertising it everywhere!
