Get ready for an exclusive, hands-on studio shoot experience you won’t want to miss! On Wednesday, April 8, we’re hosting our first-ever studio/model shoot, featuring two talented professional models who will not only pose, but coach photographers live on how to confidently direct and create stronger images.
📍 Location: Chuck Campbell’s Studio (Studio Central)
💡 Two fully equipped shooting rooms
• One room with professional strobes
• One room with constant lighting
(All lighting and backdrops provided!)
To keep this experience personal and productive, attendance is limited to just 10 photographers. This ensures plenty of one-on-one shooting time with each model over a full two-hour session.
💵 Cost: $40 via PayPal (to cover the models)
👗 Style: Fashion and lingerie photography only — no nudity (family-friendly event)
Bring any camera you have—DSLR, mirrorless, or even your phone. Skill level doesn’t matter; this event is about learning, experimenting, and creating.
⏰ Doors open at 6:30 PM — arrive early so we can maximize every minute of shooting time.
⚠️ First come, first served — once the 10 spots are gone, they’re gone!
📌 Note: There will be no photo review at this meetup.
👉 Bonus: Join us again in May for a FREE meetup where Joe will demonstrate how to build a budget-friendly home studio right in your living room.
Don’t wait—reserve your spot now and be part of this exciting new chapter for our meetup group!
