Photoshootogether in St. Pete/Tampa, FL - Feb. 28th, 2010

Posted by fotografia at 6:08 PM

Ok, so after the great turn out we had in Anaheim, we decided to do a round two in Florida. From one coast to the other...lightenupandshoot style!

In any case, here's the scoop! We have a couple models, we have a lot of time and we have a lot of desire to meet you people...so what better thing to do, than do a photoshoot and invite everyone that wants to go and make this all FREE! (Ok, not everyone but about 20 people max I would say).

HOTEL info too!!!!!

Also!!!!!  We will be in Jacksonville Saturday March 6th...Location TBD

More info after the break..

So this is the plan.

We meet at The Pier in St. Pete at 12:30PM.

We talk photography a couple of hours...basically a question and answer session.

Then we go shoot a couple of models around the area using the backpackers studio!

We will all get to shoot...that's the cool part!

We get the shot...you buy us some beers!

Sounds like a phenomenal plan to us!

If people want to car pool, communicate in the comments section.

Again, this is FREE so no excuse for you not to go!

Any questions, just ask! All our contact info is in our contact section of the website!

The location is going to be at the pier in St. Petersbourg Florida and meetup is 12:30PM on Sunday February 28th, 2010.

    That is so cool...I guess no New York visits from you guys for while.
    I just bought the Westcott 28" Apollo, but can't go outside because it is covered by snow.
    Hope to see you guys in NYC soon.
    Take care.

    I just happened upon the "backpackers studio" at the Vinoy Park this afternoon and caught a few tips. It is so generous of you to share your photographic wisdom.

    Hope you conduct one of your workshops in Philadelphia or NYC soon...
