As both regular readers will be aware I am working with my nephew to create a new portfolio. We have some fun ideas for shoots.
This of mutual benefit: It gives me experience of model direction and gives him practice at modelling.
However I want to gain more experience of portrait photography. To this end I am offering Bloggers in the London area (and those in Essex living close to Havering) a free photo shoot.
If you are interested, contact me at thepoormouth@gmail.com to discuss requirements (no naughty photos of course!). I will come to you, take the photos. I will then send you photos by email. You are free then to download, make prints etc.
The only condition is that any photos I consider to be of merit will appear on my photography website. They will not identify you by either real or blogger name.
Unlike my post about the First cosmonaut on 1 April this is not a hoax
That's exciting, Jams! If I were there I'd definitely volunteer. Looking forward to the results.
ReplyDeleteNo funny caricatures now!
ReplyDeleteThanks SE. Here's hoping there is some take up!
ReplyDeleteNone planned James.. unless I am gifted an opportunity
Contact David Cameron. He recently had to dispense with the services of a photographer after an outcry about the cost, so I'm sure he'd take up your offer, and I am looking forward to seeing him with that windblown sheet over his head and his armpit hairs glistening in the sun, And apparently Gordon Brown has still not had the ex-Prime Ministerial picture for the 10 Downing Street staircase taken (being in denial about being an ex, I suspect), and good luck trying to get an enigmatic smile out of him.
ReplyDeleteI would run to London if I had the strength. That would be the first time, in my life, I would have the chance to see a decent photo of me, wrinkles and all. I hope people, in your area, take you up on this offer. You did so well with your nephew. Bonne chance, Jams.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I could offer Cameron a deal but I'm not sure I could make him look anything other than a dick!
ReplyDeleteAs for Brown, I would need a road drill to get a smile out of him!
Thanks Claude, if I could take the photos I certainly would
If I lived closer you would be welcome to try out your photo skills on me :-)
ReplyDeleteI would be more than happy to oblige Cherie
ReplyDeletePerhaps I could time travel back to 1974 and then I'd still be in London.
ReplyDeleteSadly nI didn't have a camera then SE!
ReplyDeleteNot even a tasteful nude? Aaaaah. :-)
ReplyDeleteWell maybe a tasteful one!
ReplyDeleteWish I could fly over to take advantage of that!
ReplyDeleteYOu would make an excellent subject Knat
ReplyDeleteI certainly have no shame when it comes to posing for photos...
ReplyDeletePerhaps one day I will be in Canada ans we can do a shoot then!
ReplyDeleteHave you had many takers, Jams? I hope so. Will you be posting the results here?
ReplyDeleteI have one taker SE. I will be doing their session soon
ReplyDeleteI would gladly take up your offer if I were in London. That would be fun.
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter!
It would be an utter pleasure to take your photo ECL
ReplyDeleteI only consent to having my picture taken when I'm at least 50' away from the photographer working with a standard focal lens. It's a very nice offer though and I hope you get a good response.
ReplyDeleteAh but I am over 3000 miles away. Can I use a telephoto?
ReplyDeleteWOT NO ROYAL WEDDING?!?!!
ReplyDeleteI wrote a fantastic account of the day, producing howls of entertainment around the world. I heard USA Today purloined it and are offering me a job as top royal reporter!!
I must go and see your reportage Gleds. I have couple of pics sort of relating to the day
