Makes no difference to me if a model has experience or not. It's really up to those that want to attend. I'm just trying to coordinate something and get it off the ground. It's as much about being a social event as it is about doing some serious photography. As far as I'm concerend, this is open to all levels of ability because we can all learn something from each other and have a bit of fun doing so.

I agree - but you can't deny having some models there would add a lot more fun to the whole event.

I thought there was good response from the model. It does not always have to be a female model. Any of the togs can take turn modelling. Those a little concern of their looks can don on a gas mask and we can have a strobist look to the whole shoot!
Well yeah, I guess it would. Are you looking for experience models or can it be just any ol model with an interest?
cool! keep us up to date. would really like to attend.

I hadn't planned on going to any of the workshops, except perhaps the Event Photography one. But they're basically just promotional talks for various products and usually a waste of time, in my opinion, especially Guy Gowans!

I'll be there from 10 am to 1pm myself. Mostly will be browsing trade stands I guess. Are you attending any of the seminars?

Not that I know of. I haven't formally arranged for anything myself although I gather some other "folio'ites" will be there. It would be a good opportunity to put some faces to names so to speak. I'll be flying up from Cork early in the morning and back down again that night, so ought to have plenty of time for a "meet and greet".
- Thorsten.
I suspect the workshops are mostly product plugging events. We should defo meet up for a few quick hellos, as you said, put a face to the name etc.
