American Photo Model Shoot, Orlando, Florida

I went to the American Photo Magazine Model Shoot Workshop last Saturday at the Marriott World Resort. The magazine organizes the event, hires models, brings lighting equipment and sets the whole thing up for you. You just need to show up with your camera and plenty of memory cards. They also bring in an instructor for the day. For this session it was New York Photographer Lindsay Adler. She provided some very good information on lens selection, lighting, posing, and creativity in two different sessions during the day. She and the other instructors also circulated and offered advice and help while we were shooting. It's a great opportunity to learn, especially if you're not familiar with this kind of photography. There were 15 different models and you can see photos of them in this gallery.
