Meeting New Photographers

[Tracy Ramirez]

I have been shooting professionally for about three years and have been so busy that unless I go to Texas school I don't have the opportunity to visit with anyone in the industry. I would like to meet people of similar interest. Are there some meet up groups monthly in the Houston area just for fun?

Have a great day everyone!

Hello Tracy and welcome to the forums.

We used to have monthly get togethers (GTG) for our part of town. Much like your schedule, many of our members just got busy and the number of people showing up to the meeting started to dwindle until one day we stopped having them.

It's quite sad really because I absolutely enjoyed going to the meeting. For the most part we talked about photography and relating business, but it was more about just hanging out with other people in the business. I sure do miss those times.

Welcome aboard Tracy...

I definitely plan to get the monthly meeting back up and running after the first of the year... maybe even a couple before hand just depends since I know this next month or so will be pretty tough on people schedule wise...

We are looking to do our annual TPF Holiday Party on December 8th down in Sugarland..

We stopped having all the meets because Abel was busy shooting Blue October all over the country. :P

Houston probably has some ASMP member meet-ups that are open to the general shooting public. I know Dallas is about to have their annual ASMP Christmas party, and it will be full of mingling photogs, ready to chat with you!

ASMP Dallas chapter annual holiday party is Dec. 4 at 8 p.m. | ASMP Dallas
