We have lots of friends that are meeting up with us up there from all over TX. Generally looking forward to the trip.

We finished up the Senior 2011 Campaign photos for all the models we worked with and they are all posted on onetalentsource.net Forum Workshop under S2C Thread. Here is a photo that I’m sharing from that really FUN workshop. Model Heather is in this photo below.


Next week we are heading South to Corpus Christi and working with some amazing models and photographers in that area. We are doing our SSS1 (Sunrise Summer Series) Mini Workshop. We are doing Swimsuit, High Fashion and Trash the Dress on the Beaches of Corpus. We have a hand full of photographers and models attending this.

We kicked off several workshops this week; we kicked off our Wet n Wild Workshop and in two days it filled up. We do plan to have another Wet n Wild workshop. We have others that wanted to attend, but they can come watch and help with lighting. This is a workshop of High Fashion Makeup with Gels and Dry Ice, Fake Rain and a third setup in the Garden Tub with Floating Fruit and High Fashion Material. Should be amazing.  Models and Makeup Artists are really excited and many are on our waiting list for the next shoot.  We might have to the next one on a Friday Night since many of our weekends are set for workshops.

Gearing up for WOW4

First model on the spot of the HCR was Model Eleya Maureen for the amazing Sunset. Everyone helped her load her things to her plush silo rooms and then the cameras came out for three days of shooting. My feet hurt just remembering the event. lol

This weekend we are gearing up for the WOW4 in Brenham, TX. We plan on doing White Wedding dresses outside in an amazing area. We have 14 photographers and 14 models lined up to show Saturday morning. Looking forward to it.

Friday night at the HCR, we set up rotating shoots all over the Ranch and one is at a doorway with lights everywhere. This set up was designed by Photographer Mark Matthews and model is Rebecca Bertot in her western glamour. We had several setups in the top of the barn, in the barn stalls, in the big house and on the back porch. We never did get to do that pillow fight but will next time.

My son's first reply was, the background looks fake. Well it's not. This was the sunrise at the Ranch HCR weekend. Model is Britney Rendon in the bluebonnets next to the pool at the Ranch. We can't wait to repeat this weekend workshop soon. Soon after the sunrise the models and photographers took off down to the creek to meet the GOAT. photos can be seen on the HCR and MMM3 workshop on http://www.onetalentsource.com/.

We introduced wedding dresses on the MMM3 Workshop this past weekend and it worked amazing at sunset. Below is a photo of Rebecca Bertot in her element. She held the flowers for me to shoot then threw them to climb to shoot with more photographers. She was amazing. This was the shoot that wore us all out. It turned warm on us as the morning was a little chilly.

Austin is having a convention to photographers May 15/16 so we decided to go and host a western WWW West workshop at an awesome Ghost Town we got lined up to shoot at. Posting of this workshop will go up tomorrow as soon as I clone myself. lol
