I did a search but nothing come up Just curious if any models or photographers out there in MM land know about this or in fact have participated in this event?

If so can you provide some info on how it works? A model friend of mine is going representing MD and brought up the photographer’s competition and suggested I should go. Any info would be helpful since I have never done anything like this before. Photographers what gear did you take?
Thanks
Bryan

anybody out there heard of this?

Hello Byran,

I went to it two years ago to promote my company, EGO Swimwear.  Met a lot of pretty girls, but not as many as they lead you to believe will be there.  I do plan on attending this year but I am not holding my breath as far as a lot of models attending.  None the less, it's their last chance to prove to me they can draw a lot of models.  If not, I won't be attending again.

Jay and Terry Dingle are the owners of Bikini-USA and they are both very nice people.  The event is a model/photographer competition where the winners win small cash prizes.  Regardless, its a fun time. 

Best Regards,
