Location, Location, Location

So some of you might know I’m always on the scout for a new location. My current search entails finding somewhere close in proximity to Cambridge, interesting looking and able to supply multiple different backdrops for upto 10 photographers and models. The reason? Well I’m planning a big photoshoot for later in the year where photographers, models and makeup artists of all standards can come together. The hope is everybody will have a great day, get some awesome portfolio shots and hopefully learn something from everybody else there. I might even throw in a little lighting seminar myself and try to convince some of the other more experienced photographers to teach something.

Anyway, I digress. Tonight I think I might have found the perfect location. It’s a derelict airbase which has lain empty for the past 15 years. It’s a massive complex with so many different locations, it’s almost unbelievable. Now the only challenge left is to get permission to take a group that big and, well, organize the group!
Here’s a sneak peek at the base…

So one thing I should add before signing off, if you’re interested in taking part in the shoot as either a photographer, model, makeup artist or stylist, hit me up in the comments!
