The Alpharetta Creative Photography Coop (ACPC) is a photography group which I founded and host at my studio in Alpharetta. There are about 200 members in the group. It is a place where photographers who are serious about fashion and fine art photography meet to share and develop their skills. We collaborate with models, makeup artists, hair artisans, and wardrobe stylists to build their portfolios. I limit the size of the attendees to 5-6 photographers and we generally have 2-3 models for the night. I work with the makeup artist, hair artisan, and models to style the wardrobe and concepts for the evening. We generally start with a beauty look and progress into edgy fashion with a total of 2-4 looks per model. The models arrive around 3 PM to prep for hair and makeup then the photographers arrive at 6:30 PM to start the shoot. Everyone has so much fun that I usually have to rescue the models and kick the photographers out around midnight.

At this meeting we had 2 scheduled models, Lauren Mullis and Lauren Roden plus a bonus model Brittney Leanne. Brittney was scheduled for a test shoot at 4 PM with her own makeup artist, Nicte Sefcik, but Atlanta traffic pushed Brittney into the start time for ACPC so everyone had a bonus model for the meeting.
