The lovely Annemieke was my assistant for the photo shoot at Auckland Central City Library. Her help was invaluable, keeping track of all the name and model release paperwork, as well as helping me set up and pack down my portable studio. Thanks Annemieke!

Thank you Auckland Central City Library!!!

Last week, I held another photo shoot - this time at the Central City Library in the heart of Auckland.

Over the 3 hours we were there, I took over 60 portraits! Like the other photo shoots, there was so much variety in the portrait subjects! I'll be posting all of the 60+ portraits here on this blog over the next few weeks.

A lovely photography student from nearby AUT, Annemieke, came along to assist me with setting up my portable studio, helping keep track of the paperwork as people filled in the permission forms, and then packing down the studio at the end.

Below is a portrait of myself that Annemieke took for me - thanks Annemieke!!!

Thanks heaps to everyone that took part, especially Sue and Simonne and the rest of the lovely librarians at the Central City Library. I really appreciated your willingness to help

I still have a lot more portraits to shoot before I can whittle them down to 100 portraits that accurately represent the population of New Zealand. So if you know of a location where I can set up my studio for a few hours, please let me know (info@bexcharteris.com)!
