My suggestion for models (L.A. area) who would like to get on this boat is to attend more of Gary's Select Models events this coming year.  Get yourself out there, get some exposure, and impress photographers.  This way, you will increase your chances of getting sponsored.

Gary, would you please cross-post your group shoots here? Maybe I'll pick a model from one of those events. An opportunity to evaluate the model.

Hey Bob...

Checkout the SM events posted on the SoCal 'Events Forum'.  I'm going to post a casting call for this cruiseshoot in January.  You will also be able to select an interested model from the casting call list.  You are also welcome to initiate your own casting call for this cruiseshoot.  A few photographers from last years cruiseshoot did and got dozens of responses... borat

Hey Bob... it's over NINE MONTHS away dude.  With all that time left... it's still somewhat in the 'wheel-spinning stage'... wink 

I'm actually hoping for another somewhat small turnout this year... kinda like last year.  Last years group of 8 models and 8 photographers was perfect... borat   That 2012 'cruiseboat photoshoot' turnout of 57 models and photographers was INSANITY... yikes

AGREED!!!  Last year was the PERFECT size!!!   And we just happened to fit perfectly into 1 extended Van (to one beach location)...   and 1 small boat (over to the other beach location).  Perfect size...

Crap, if Toothpick Ted is in, guess I'll have to start working on getting me a cabin too...
The small group was good, maybe a couple more photogs/models, 8-12,  just to help fill in when a model or two goes MIA...

I paid a lot more than that, so I guess I pulled the trigger too soon. sad
Maybe they'll upgrade me to a suite.
If anyone out there hasn't signed up yet, do it now. The prices will only climb from here and only interior rooms will remain. I saw on the news that Carnival is booking in record numbers.
If you're worried about germs like the recent outbreak on that other cruise line in New York, that's the flu season with New Yorker's huddled indoors all winter before they sailed.
