Who is testing?

As a fashion photographer I need to work with as much creative people as it is possible.
I have not really had any problems at all in finding great people to work in London, I used to use modelmayhem.com website or they found me somehow and wrote to me first but couple weeks ago I started to think that I need change and I need to start meeting new people, get inspired and push myself further.

Last year I found a website www.whoistesting.com which is really helpful in finding creative people around city you live. To be shortlisted over there you need to be accepted by people who run this site.
I tried twiced to be shortlisted there but I did not fit into their categories (too less experience etc etc), I tried for a third time a week ago and finally I am there.

It is amazing how fast people started finding me, in only 3 days I got around 10 different emails from great people who want to work with me. It feels good because I know that I can always do something with them + it means they like my photographs and they want to work with me.

I would highly reccomend to everyone who is in fashion/beauty photography to try to get there. It is an amazing opportunity to start building a stronger portfolio and meet new people who are not only there to help you during photoshot but they can become your friends as well. It is all networking.
