I'm new here, trying to see if I could possibly get anyone to photograph me. I have yet to start a portfolio, but am definitely hoping to start one soon. If anyone here is interested in photographing me, please contact me. Thank you.

Mon, March 17, 2008 - 4:37 PMHi Danielle, I would like to photograph you. Do you have any particular style that you prefer or would you like to try some different stuff to see what you like? Let talk and make this happen for you.

Mon, March 17, 2008 - 5:56 PMI maybe could use you. Would you be willing to be airbrushed white, then splattered with different colored paint and then photographed nude? -

Re: Need a model?
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 5:35 AMI was thinking around 100 bucks for 3 hours. (Yeah I know it's not a lot but I am an artist and we never seem to have too much money.) I'm still in the planning stages though. I'm thinking about doing this late April / early May. Location is a question. I have been shooting out of a studio in Oakland but it may not be suitable for this project.
I'd want a really fit artist model would be the best. Someone who had some experience posing for figure drawing classes would be good. They would also need to be in shape, with good muscle tone. Also, a good sense of humor is a must for working with my crew and me (I have an prop person and a make-up person for the shoot). What I aim for in these shoots is capturing personality as well as looks. Expression is a model sexiest feature.
Like I said, I'm still putting this together. It may be a while before I'm seriously looking for models. But thanks for your interest and I'll put you down as a possible model. -

Re: Need a model?
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 8:04 AMI assume you have looked at my pics. I have been a profesional life model for thirteen years with excellent references and um, if I had no sense of humor I wouldn't have volunteered! I'm up fot it, if you want me.
There might be a studio in Santa Rosa that might be friendly to this. You'd probably have to pay him though.

Sat, March 22, 2008 - 1:23 PMI can highly recommend Qatana for your project. I have worked with her on several projects (performance, not photo) and can vouch for her professionalism, her flexibility, and her ability to take direction. -

Re: Need a model?
Sun, March 23, 2008 - 11:07 AMWell it looks like I already have my two models lined up. But I definitely would use Qatana for one of my other projects later. (More so than Dani who wrote the original post but has remained silent ever since. I guess she wasn't really that into modeling anyway.) -

Thanks Paul, and Thanks, James. Looking forward to your next idea!

Ye gods! That sounds like a total blast of a photoshoot. I love body paint and the juxtapositions you can create with paint, bodies, form and motion.
Do keep me in mind for such deviousness in the future. :-D

Re: Need a model?
Tue, March 18, 2008 - 7:32 PMThere is a networking event in Sacramento this Saturday (3/22/2008) where you can meet lots of photographers and other models. There will be bay area events coming up too.
Tribe is an "ok" place to get started... check up on "guys with camera", and bring a friend to a shoot. -

Re: Need a model?
Tue, July 1, 2008 - 9:19 AMHello Danielle,
My name is David Godinez and I am a local photographer that came across your post. I am a professional sports photographer, that has recently moved into the genre of shooting portraits. The clients that I have worked for recently have been very pleased with my work, but I am still looking to expand on my portfolio. I would love the opportunity to have a session with you, I have a studio, but I tend to take most of my work outside, it often allows me excellent light as well as an urban look to the pictures. If you are interested in getting together for a shoot, I will give you all of the pictures that we take on a disk and we can help each other out with our portfolios. I have included a link to my website so that you can see some of my recent work.
Thanks,
David Godinez
