Yesterday was a whirlwind of activity here in New York as 20 photographers participated in our Shoot! On Location (SOL) event while another several hundred attended a half day Shoot! The Day symposium at Shoot Digital studios.

The 20 photographers started their day bright and early at 9am where they picked up their brand new Nikon D700s, and became the first group of users to use them en masse. Apple followed with an orientation of Aperture. And the MAC Group finished up with discussion of the Profoto lighting equipment and Pocket Wizards that were used on location.

I started my day by covering one of the SOL locations…

All the clothing was hung up for easy accessibility, and the clothing was marked off for each model.

Then I rushed over to Shoot Digital to take part in the activities including some awesome presentations which will be available online in the next few weeks. I think you guys will really enjoy the insights from our buyers & editors, and the new School of Stock articles that will be generated from this event.

…and how did our lucky 20 photographers Shoot! The Day while replenishing stock? I think they did pretty damn well! Here’s just a single shot from each shoot to give you a sense of the direction we’re all headed in.

Erin Wigger and David “Strobist” Hobby went to town with a Nikon D700 and two speedlight flashes. That’s it. My jaw was on the ground when I saw this completely unretouched camera. We’ll be talking more about David soon….
