We are teaming up with Leslie Kerrigan from Seniorologie and Courtney DeLaura from Altar'd State for a Senior Shoot Out in Atlanta this January! If you are coming to Imaging USA (if you aren't, you should be!) this January, then join us on the Senior Shoot Out! It is a great way to build your senior portfolio and meet new photographers. Many of us photographers want to break into the senior market and the best way to do that is to show seniors in your portfolio. This is a perfect way to show the senior market your work and the shoots will be styled perfectly with hair, makeup and clothing!

We will be shooting two days so you can pick your day or choose both!

Senior Shoot Out~ Atlanta 2013

We are teaming up with Seniorologie and Courtney DeLaura of Altar'd State to host two shoot outs in Atlanta.  One is an indoor shoot out in a studio and the other is an outdoor urban photo shoot.  As with all of Seniorologie's Shoot Outs, attendees will be put into small groups and given the opportunity to photograph real seniors that will be dressed in Altar'd State clothing and styled with professional hair and makeup.  You may even find some past speakers from The Seniorologie Tour there to lend a hand!

The first shoot will take place on Saturday, January 19 and will be an outdoor photo shoot.  The shoot out will start in the afternoon and more details regarding location will be provided to those that register.  You can register for this shoot out by clicking here.

The second shoot out will be on Sunday, January 20 in a studio location downtown Atlanta.  We will have a backdrop set up, lighting and models to photograph.  This will give attendees the opportunity to see how you can photograph seniors in a studio situation.  The models will again be styled by our clothing sponsor Altar'd State.  To sign up for this shoot out click here.

Attendees can opt to sign up for both shoot outs for a discounted rate.  This will be a great way to increase the number of photos you can add to your portfolio.  Click here to register for both.

There are limited spots available for both of these shoots so be sure to sign up soon!  We can't wait to see you in Atlanta in January!!

Posing & Moore...giveaway!

Posing & Moore...product review~

I was so excited to get my hands on the latest creation from Michelle Moore, the fabulous senior portrait photographer whose shoots look more like a magazine spread than your basic senior portrait...and this is not your basic posing guide! This is THE posing guide you have waited for YEARS to arrive! This guide is so much more than just a “posing guide”. 

Michelle guides you through ideas when working with teens and how to go about getting them relaxed in front of the camera.  She  gives you the tools to guide your clients into natural, easy poses and shows you the shots that parents will want to purchase. 

I mostly enjoyed reading the background on each pose and how she creates an environment to relax a shy teen and bring out the best in them. We all know the teen years are awkward and knowing the tricks to make them comfortable and confident in front of the camera is a must.

What is included in this guide?

* 60+ pages and more than 100 images for inspiration

* Gear – the Basics / Michelle’s go-to gear

* Location – the Basics / Working on-location with teens

* Learning how to find your style, while also shooting for the sale

* How to prepare your clients for their photoshoot

* Finding confidence in yourself and Photography before heading to your first shoot

* Learning how to connect with your teen clients

* Tips on all the little details that make or break a pose

* Ways to guide your clients through natural poses to create great images

* The “MM” must-have shot list

* …and more!
