Like shooting cars? Photo opportunity in Houston... - 09-29-2009, 03:38 PM


Howdy, I have an opportunity that someone might take advantage of. I was recently asked to shoot a car show in NW Houston at the Brick House Tavern & Tap on 290 for Oct 24. It looks like I may not be able to do it, but told them that I'd try and find someone to take it on. It's a charity event, so they aren't looking to pay a lot, but you'll get some good contacts out of the deal and make some money selling the prints. What they need is someone to be there at a designated time to shoot individual cars in a photo area, some with the 'Brickhouse girls'. I'd only expect the shoot to last an hour or 2.

So, if you're interested, post or PM your name, contact info and/or a website if you have one, and I'll forward them to the promoter.

-Casey

If I already wasn't going to make a drunken fool out of myself at Buzzfest, I'd be there!

That sounds like fun. I've shot with the BH girls before too, they're great and love the camera.
What time will this be do you think?
I'm definitely interested.

No problem. I tried replying to your email, but it's getting returned:

I'll just paste the text into a PM.

Thanks Angel. The 5D/24-105 combo was awesome. I also used a CPL for the shoot, so the skies came out nice and dark, and I could kill the reflections when I wanted to.

Casey, it's funny- I tried sending you an email at your clfry.com email addy, and it would not send for the life of me. So I sent it to your other email. How weird is it that our servers won't communicate?!

Haven't read the PM yet.

Oh, the clfry.com domain is no more (long, angering story )... I thought I had updated it everywhere, where did you find it? It's been over a year...

LOL, Nope, that's a new one... figures tho, I've always seemed to look like 'someone', lol. When I was a teenager it was Tom Cruise, then I slimmed a bit in college and somehow morphed into Luke Perry, then I got 'old' and didn't seem to look like anyone anymore... thanks for puting me back on track
