So I've been thinking about this for a long time. I need to update my freaking profile picture! I mean I think mine was taken sometime between the fall of the Berlin Wall and the first I-Phone. (No, not seriously, stop analyzing and pay attention)
I could hire a professional to follow me around and make the whole event awkward and costly. But I think there's a better way. I'd rather hang out with a group of cool ass people with the same intention, have fun and make friends in the process.
The plan is simple: we all bring our camera phones, and for the first time in a while, it won't feel awkward asking another person to take your pic. I'm thinking of this being a series whenever I think of a picturesque spot with potential. Use it for whatever you want: Meetup, Instagram, dating websites...
I placed a limit of attendees because too many will make this plan fall apart. Also I chose the time because I'm aiming for a time it would be least populated.
The notes:
I'm not a professional. If a professional with a passion for portraits or updating their portfolio, wants to take over, I would not be opposed.
This should be a safe place with no judgement, don't be afraid to ask for a retake or bring extra clothes. Do you!
If you can think of more locations, times, etc. reach out to me.
Let's grab a drink afterwards! More to come.
