Here are a few shots from one of my recent shoots. But first let me share some news...

I just want to let those of you that might be interested know that I am now the Creative Director of Raine Magazine. Raine is a new online interactive fashion magazine. It is for people that are into fashion. This includes, photographer's, makeup artist (MUA's), stylists, designers and anyone that is somehow connected to fashion. The first issue is due to launch in Sept. I will be back to provide the more details. We are still laying out the launch issue and the website isn't finished. We will be accepting submissions from anyone that is connected to the business. Each month we will feature articles on some of the people that submit their work. There is no pay for your submission, only photo credit. This is not going to a forum, this is actually a magazine with articles. It is meant to help those in the business. So if you are a photographer that is seriously trying to pursue this as a career, contact me about submitting your work. Raine will allow you to interact and network with models, MUA's, stylists and anyone that you might need to do business. There is only one catch, this isn't for HOBBYIST. This is for those that actually have a business. The people that we are networking are in business, want to be paid. If you are looking for models to practice on, this wouldn't be the right place. But, if you need models I can help you out in that area. I can pull models from mostly anywhere in the country.

To contact me now, just send an email address to projects@frederiqueporter.com

Since I'm making the email addresses myself, I think my email address will be frederique@rainemagazine.com

The magazine website address is:

www.rainemagazine.com

Nothing will come up, the web designer is working on it. For some reason she took down the under construction page.

That is another thing, I found the best web designer in the world. She is creating three new sites for me. She is reasonable, creative and she is a wonderful person. So when my new sites come up, let me know if you want to hire her.


I do have another announcement to make as well, but I will let this sink for now. Actually, it is MUCH bigger than this one.

Beautiful work, Fredrique! To think... Souchen was mentioning last month at the Balloon festival that you were such a creative talent and one of the early 'zo members. Best of success to you!

Thank you so much! You are right, it is sometimes hard to stay focused when things are slow and not going as planned. But, then one day, you get to the next step. This was one of three goals for this year.

Goal #1 Get tearsheets for fashion in newsstand magazines.
Done, I have three tearsheets coming out in september.

Goal #2 To get more work, portfolio work and get out there more.
Done.
Goal #3 To get with an agency that is willing to pay me money to do their portfolios no testing.
:)

So yeah, it is a good thing. My best advice I would share with anyone is to set goals and never let anyone tell you can't do it. NEVER!

I am here to share my news but to provide opportunity to those that want to do fashion photography on a pro level. I will come here with updates.

For now, my only update is the email address:

Going forward, send all questions for me regarding Raine magazine to fporter@rainemagazine.com

Thanks,

Update: Please use fporter@rainemagazine.com when contacting me about the magazine.

I am trying to get some input and possible submissions from you guys, if you are interested in getting your work seen by working models and stylists, Raine would be a great place.

Thanks,
Frederique
