Boston POTN Meet

I replied - sorry for the delay. I had had two big shoots this past weekend that were almost as much planning as this darn workshop is turning out to be. I'm really starting to hate models. I've had 4, yes 4, flake out on me this weekend.

I swear, I gotta start getting paid for this 'photo taking' stuff

Anyway, if anyone wants in on the workshop on Saturday I have two spots open still.

Name the flakes so others don't hit them

If anyone wants the names they can PM me I feel kinda of bad listing them here...

How did the workshop go w/ Manny?

The workshop went really well... Manny is out of his mind (which is a good thing) he knows his stuff and doesn't mind sharing with others. We had 5 very lovely models wearing some really cool & funky outfits and lots of time to work with each one of them in different locations / lighting conditions / setups.

All in all a great event, very well worth the time and money. I would certainly go to another one.

Thanks to Jen for helping put this together. Hopefully next time she won't forget her cell phone (Sorry couldn't resist throwing that out there)

It was great meeting everyone that attended, hopefully we will see each other again soon.

The workshop was lots of fun and a great learning experience as before. Too bad the swan wouldn't sign the model release and get in the picture w/ Sherilyn (in a bumblebee tutu outfit . Will post pics when I get through PP'ing them...

Like this one... I took this really quickly as soon as I walked out the door. The swan didn't cooperate afterward at all

This was taken just after our uncooperative swan hissed at Sherilyn

I think she had some issue last time with a cell phone...

Its funny you say that, as soon as he was in the water he was shaking he tail feathers at her / us like he was flipping us off of something.

He did like the chips but wasn't too good on land at all.

Ya, I'm begining to think I just shouldn't have a cell phone. For the first workshop it was broken (went through the wash), for this one I left it in the car after hubby and I swapped cars... too bad its my business line - hope that's not a sign!

Thanks for coming everyone - Manny did a great job, as usual, and it was so much fun. We'll be doing an 'advanced lighting' course in the fall - you should all plan on coming if you came to the first, it'll be building on what we've learned so far. And then there's his photoshop class and pinup workshop too...

Here's a few of my favorites from Saturday's workshop.

Any POTN meets coming up? I'm finishing up law school and will finally have some time on my hands before prepping for the bar begins.

Here are a few of my pics from the workshop.
