		OPINION MENU - POST OPINION - PREVIOUS - NEXT Monday, December 10, 2007 Clearwater Modeling There was a time, over five years ago, when downtown Clearwater was hot for modeling portfolio shoots. The location was beautiful, and a good photographers were able to get awesome pictures of their models. Things changed, as the traffic down Cleveland street was terrible, and the area was often crowded. Many photographers and models moved to other locations in the Tampa Bay area, however, and Clearwater was no longer on everyone’s list as the most ideal place for model photography projects. In 2004, Tampa Bay Modeling was founded by a group of models and headquartered in our secret hideout condominium on Clearwater Beach, a hop and a skip over the bridge from downtown Clearwater, where we still are to this day. Although Clearwater Beach was often utilized by our photographer and model friends, downtown Clearwater was often forgotten. This would soon change because of something glorious. When the new bridge was built downtown and the old bridge was demolished, traffic was diverted away from the downtown area, causing the businesses to lose customers and money. The area emptied of traffic and crowds, leaving much of the beautiful locations intact. This created a favorable environment for professional models and photographers to move into the area to work together. Downtown Clearwater is now a great place to visit (See for yourself right now. check it out HERE from the web cam mounted on the west roof of the Harborview Center - The camera, which faces west, toward Clearwater Beach, is controllable from your computer. Zoom in tight and you might even see me waving from my condo!). It’s our top pick for modeling photography work, as the locations are awesome and local competition is mostly nonexistent. There are a variety of restaurants and shops in the area which make shooting there productive and pleasant, and the area can expect a large number of models and photographers to utilize the area for photography sessions in 2008. Indeed, downtown Clearwater is a great location to visit and use, but the same things that make it such an ideal location for transient, imported projects make it a bad place to have a business. We encourage the photographers, models, and their support teams to support local businesses as they utilize the area and take advantage of the benefits which it offers. Although the area is largely supported by the large number of members of a cult in the area, these cult people seem to be into whatever it is that they do and don’t bother anyone. Just remember to avoid taking any stress tests while you are there, and simply tell the Stepford clones that modeling and model photography is all that is needed for stress relief. Downtown Clearwater seems to be the perfect place for model photography, at least for now. Take a drive there and check it out for yourself, and get some of the best pictures of your career in one of Tampa Bay’s most beautiful locations. ~ Danielle Cooper, Editor Tampa Bay Modeling Clearwater Beach, Florida OPINION MENU - POST OPINION - PREVIOUS - NEXT UPDATED 03/24/08
