Well, since we’re relaunching our studio model register, it was time to start interviewing and taking on new models. It’s essential to have a test shoot for each model, to see how they are to work with as well as what they look like. After all, as I’ve said elsewhere, a good model is a lot more than just looks – there are skills to learn, such as a large repertoire of poses.

Enter Georgina – she got in touch after a casting call just yesterday, and here she was this morning, bravely turning up for a test shoot, which was her first shoot since her return to modelling after a five year break. She’s a lovely, fun, bubbly girl with great looks and a natural ability to pose. So it’s welcome to the new, improved Southdown Studio model register, Georgina, and let’s hope there are many more as good as her.

Georgina is now available to book for shoots at Southdown Studio. She may also be appearing at our new group shoots & tutorial workshops – of which more later!

Day 3:

Today we went out by ourselves with Jon’s camera and took some portraits of eachother  in different locations. We then came back to the studio and viewed all of our pictures and Jon taught us how to edit them and do airbrushing and so on. There was a Photoshoot during which we had to leave and go and take some textural photoz.

DAY 4:

We looked over the pictures we have taken over the week so far and used constructive criticism to help us learn about how to be better at photography and composition and so on.
