Colorado Super Shoot Site info!
Welcome once again!
First and foremost, Colorado Supershoots is NOT affiliated with any other workshop, seminar, group or association other than those represented or endorsed by Jay Kilgore.
Second: CSS is not limited to JUST the Colorado area! our primary instructor has taught across the west and mid west and is open to travel to any other parts of the country! The primary purpose of CSS, is to up the level of photography in this state, by bringing in a large number of nationally as well as internationally published models. To make Colorado known for more than it's mountains escapes.
Colorado Supershoots is NOT here to say what you're doing now, isn't good enough. It is not here as a way to say anyone affiliated with it, is better than you or anyone else, but to say we recognize a serious void in the national spot light. We talk to many photographers per day, they all talk about the local magazines. While we have nothing against local publication, how cool would it be, to pick up an issue of FHM, Maxim, Perfect 10, ROCKSTAR and so on, and see YOUR STUDIO there? How cool would it be to charge models for your expertise and KNOW you're delivering the goods? These are things Jay Kilgore has and is doing right now! Jay uses his workshops to teach you how to get great images with out using hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of equipment to do so! Did you know, 16 of the first 20 published images Jay had, were taken with the first generation Canon Digital Rebel, the EOS 300D?
Colorado SuperShoots is open to EVERYONE, regardless of your photography background! Jay has has everyone from the amateur's amateur, to internationally published photographers attend his workshops. EVERYONE can and do learn something when working with Jay. On the flip side, Jay learns from you as well! CSS is not the type of workshop where the instructor knows everything and is there to show you "how good" he is. In fact, Jay encourages you to try new things (inside the models comfort zone of course) be different, figure out how he would light it and use his idea, to further tweak your vision. Meaning, if you're the person who just got their camera, or person who's shooting with 10 Canon 1DS Mark III's or 16 Nikon D700's and D3G's we ALL learn from each other.
Besides all the above, when you attend Colorado SuperShoot's, you are going to work with many of Jay's "personal" favorite models! Many of Jay's models don't want to model full time or for just anything, so they work with him to come up with some of his works. At his workshops, you're exposed to everything that is his!. Lets be honest, we're ALL looking for that fresh new face. How many of us have the exact same models in our book? by looking at Jay's work, how many of them can you say are in your book? out of 20 displayed, 2? 3? no more than 5 that's for sure. Having fresh faces keeps people looking at your work.
Colorado SuperShoots is the ONLY Colorado based workshop that will put you in touch with nationally published models. Everyone from Playmates to model site models, CSS is ran and funded by a guy who has connections and the respect of some of the worlds best models. How many people in Colorado will have Brooke Banx or Ali Sonoma or actual Playmates in their book? you will NOT get this chance with out coming to the CSS workshops! |
