Camp Do More is like this magical haven where photographers, models, and educators get together to empower, teach, shoot, and bond! It is one of the only places I personally I have ever been able to express myself as what I believe to be 100% Teri. I can swear without fear of offending, I can literally never wear pants, but definitely don all the sparkles (in fact, people are sad when I don't) and I can be my usual loud, hyper, positive human, hyping up others around me! Part of what I love about camp, is that I am able to shoot whenever I want with no obligation to anyone or anything....so basically, if I was inspired, I would grab someone and go shoot! That being said, before I went to camp, I found these cute little bathing suit bottoms with suspenders from Forever 21, so I knew I wanted to shoot them. I even took my silly little captain's hat "just in case" and it all paid off in this micro session with Miss E. She is the first of many of to come, but I hope you enjoy the first shoot I did at Camp Do More 2019!
They Let Girls Into Cubscouts Now - Winnipeg Photographer
Last week I had the pleasure of heading to Camp Do More in Ontario, just 2 hours outside of Toronto. This would be four days full of meeting with like minded boudy photogs, shooting, modelling, getting eaten by mosquitoes, and educating others on how my silly brain works to help empower women through photography. Because I was a little late in making my presentations, I didn't even have time to think about what I was going to shoot so I was little sad, but thought the break might be nice so I could focus on just teaching and meeting some fab humans. Well, fast forward to the few days I spent in Toronto pre-camp with my buddy Taylor (the one on the left above) and we visited this sweet ass vintage shop. After perusing a few racks Taylor held up this old child's size Cub Scout shirt and my brain took it and ran. We then sussed out an additional outfit for her friend Edith (one of the other models at camp...the one on the right above). We found vintage socks, vests, berets, scarves, etc. to make this naughty Cub Scout shoot come to life.After being inspired by all the other speakers at the Camp, I wanted to take something that Boon Ong (whom I did the workshop in Calgary with) does. His blog posts are treated as a full experience and he finds a song that fits for each one and as the music plays, while scrolling through the posts you get immersed in it. It becomes like a still movie...I think I may do this for all my babes going forward. It truly adds to the experience of the images. Anywho, feel free to "watch" our little story unfold below and if you are a photographer interested in coming to Camp Do More next year, we are half sold out on tickets, but you can get yours here!! (And don't forget to sign up for my classes mwahaha).[audio mp3="https://www.terihoffordphotography.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Silk.mp3"][/audio]
