American Photo Model Shoot

This Saturday was the American Model Photo Shoot, in San Marcos, Texas, held at the Embassy Suites Hotel.  It was my first time ever, to actually shoot in a set, and boy was that an experience for me.  A great experience at that.  There were about 20 models, 18 females and 2 males.  They did a great job in posing and just bearing with the many (around 80+ photographers) asking them to pose they way they wanted them to.  Also a special thanks to SIGMA Lens, for letting us use some of their awesome lens.  They also had a station, where we could try out their SD-1 camera to take pictures of a model.  It's a great camera and if you ever get a chance to try it out, take advantage of it.
This is a great way to learn how to take portraits for all the photographers out there, whether your a pro, amateur like me or just love to take pictures, there were pros there to give you tips on your camera settings.
Leslie Aldrich, a professional fashion photographer was there to give us tips and tricks on taking portraits, from the pose, to the composition and choice of clothing.  For the little time she had to spend with us, she covered a lot of grounds.

Here are some of the pictures that I took that day, I used the Sigma 50-150 f2.8 lens and the 70-200 f2.8 also.

The first picture is from the Sigma station using the SD-1 and with the 70-200 lens.
