I figure this is a good spot for this. I look over some of the pics you guys post and some of you have fantastic skills!

I run a website that helps find photographers and models for people interested in a photo shoot. It's free for photographers to register, just fill out the contact page, it goes to a database. We'll email you about local shoot opportunities.

Check out my teaser thread http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=139325

and please spread the word, trying to get it going.

you might have some major competition... Modelmayhem?

their a modeling site in which people ask for it themselves. I focus on cars and I do it for someone who hires me. I don't provide a service like them.

I'm not competition, in fact i could use them to help.

I arrange photo shoots for people like a broker, finding the photographers and models. They would be partners in this case, i would use their site for my own benefit to find people for a shoot.

looks very interesting

Thank you, I just want to help people make awesome shoots like I've done for myself. The site is brand new so its hard, we don't have connections every where yet.


I'm looking for a photographer now in the Western LA/Holywood area. I've got the north east covered, its easy because its home.

Sounds like a great idea, but when I (and everyone I know) searches for models, we use OMP, MM, or a local "talent" agency.

Your consultant idea is a good idea, but might not be so easy to execute. I've debated doing something similar, but it would only work in a specific "niche" market like NYC, SoCal, or Dallas/Forth Worth.

Major cities are the easiest to do, tru. You see if you want a shoot yourself of course you can go and search for yourself but its more difficult as an individual. Models aren't so trusting to just some random car guy vs someone they know and working with and model agency IS more expensive vs my services.

I put it together so you (the car folk out there) don't have to do anything except lay out the final ground work and pay the models and the photographers come the day of the shoot. The average joe car guy doesn't know what you and I know.

BTW if you would want to toss up any of the pics from the BMW shoot I did the other day (2 E90post members and 1 e46fanatics) on yoursite give me a PM. As I don't feature anyone just provide services, so always looking for someone to feature my stuff. I do have my own "sponsored" girls who are models I do lots of work with and managing.

Its execution has gone very well with several events already help setup, its just getting the name out there and the trust in the market.
