Hello all.

This is just an idea at the moment and depending on interest I am hoping to make it a reality.

I know a guy who has just opened a photo studio at Staples corner in North London, and from what he says it isnt exactly small and has several sets and areas to shoot. What I am thinking about doing is booking the studio for 4 hours, either one evening or an afternoon over a weekend and opening the time for 6 of us to all go along and use the time to learn some studio techniques.

There are lots of us on here who enjoy photography, and I know after speaking to a few that you would like to try some time in a studio with a model. This could be the perfect solution.

If we were to get the studio for 4 hours, hire 2 models, lets say 1 fashion model and 1 glamour and split into 2 groups then we would all get a reasonable ammount of time, shooting 2 hours with each model, maybe swapping sets.

The studio owner will be on hand to assist and guide/tutor as required, as will I(not that I am that good, but know the basics).

If anyone has any interest in coming along please let me know on the forum and if there is enough interest then it will happen.

Cost will be studio cost and model costs divided by the number of photographers in attendance.

What Tony said above... I'ld be interested in the learning process - If I can get them to act like a bush or a tree I'll be fine.
