Giving back - nominate a friend for a Blue Candy shoot!
I have some exciting news! In the past I have declined requests to hold workshops and photography classes due to my busy client schedule. At the same time, I have been looking for creative ways to give back to the community. Well, I recently came up with a wonderful way to incorporate both teaching and giving - a mentoring mock shoot! The mock shoot will be run exactly like a standard session, except that I will be taking time out to explain what I am doing to my mentoree (is that a word??). And instead of choosing a child that I have already worked with, I am opening up nominations for a deserving family/child to participate as a model for our shoot. The session will be free of charge and one desk print will be included; additional prints may be purchased at our regular rates. The subject must be at least six months old and be able to sit unassisted and a model release will be required (in case the image is published or used in our website/materials). The mock shoot will take place next Monday, August 11th at 10 am (please do not apply if this time coincides with your child's naptime!). Nominations may be sent to stacy@bluecandyphotography. Please include the child (or children's) name, age, address, and a paragraph describing why you feel that the child or family should be chosen. The chosen model will be notified by this Saturday. Good luck!
***Mentorees have already been chosen for the upcoming shoots; please inquire for mentoring rates if you are interested in being mentored in a mock shoot. Right now we are only accepting applications for photographers who live outside of the Indianapolis area.***
