Post anything "positive" that happened as a direct result from MM in the past year. I know it's day's or so early, so go to it everyone. Positive only. I'll put mine up ever so shortly. Happy New Year all.

I met the following models via MM and was privileged to work with them this year. The first three are from this month, so nothing up yet on our respective portfolios:

LisaLou
Eve-Adeline
Chenelle21
Morrigan Morrow
Agent Retro
Zarina Britt
Amanda Garcia
The Emilie
Melanie
Andalia

And I filled untold hours of boredom poking through the fora.

I haven't been on MM for a year yet, but my abbreviated visit has yielded the opportunity to work with nothing but good people,models,mua,stylist's. In addition
to them, i've met several photographer's in person and online of course who have given me some valuable advice. I am more than happy that i came here, i consider
this site to be a valuable tool and i look forward to my next year here.

I've only been on MM since April 15 so any models and photographers you see listed on my port I've met since then. I've been fortunate enough that quite a few of them have become very good friends of mine. Thanks to them and everyone else who has helped me improve.

I met Marc. smile And a few other photographers who really help me a lot with advices and technical stuff. I also worked with a few models from here that got me some nice images. I've been here for only less than 4 months. Not too bad at all.

Been an MM member for almost 2 years.  In 2006, had 10 group shoot events with well over 300 Model Mayhem photographers and models in attendance.  Checkout the photo page and TAGs... it was one Hell of a year fur sure.  My goal in 2007 is 11 events with 100s of new MMer's (with many returning members) in attendance.  Everyone on Model Mayhem is welcome to inquire... wink

I've had the pleasure of meeting/shooting with a few MM photographers...Brian Diaz, Vivus Denuo, Tape Her Up, and Stephen Bodi.  I got to talk to Elahi over the phone, and well as my buddy BCG who's a real cool guy and always a pleasure to talk to.  So many cool people I haven't even mentioned have been a lot of fun and great to talk to on the threads and PMs...Electra T, UdoR, Hadyn, FosbreStudios, RoadRunner, etc.  Oh, and I got a cool MM shirt for having 1,000+ posts.  Thanks again, Tyler!

I got to feel a lot more comfortable and encouraged about my photography, and understood better that I'm not lousy - I'm learning.

I know, I know. Cheesy answer.

I have worked with so many wonderful and creative people this year - All from the MM circle. (I abandoned the other places, since I found the best responses here)

All the smart and thoughtful models - people that bring their ideas to a shoot.

I owe a lot of special 2006 thanks, to all involved with my shoots with Raverchic #40800 and NYXValentine #61165.  They are talented and wonderful people.

I consider them to be Co-Creators, of so many of my images here.

This place may make me laff/cry/yell/fret - but, it never lacks for creativity and spirit.

Happy New Year - VintageV

Almost all of the models I hired for my shoots and tirps were from MM.  The best site for sure for me to work with models who really want to work. bs
