Finding a photographer

I've been really struggling to find photographers that are willing to help with my project. I have posted on all the Facebook groups with relevant information about shoots that I have been planning and heard back from one girl wanted to help, so I planned to meet her however the day before she messaged me saying she had to go home due to illness so couldn't work on the project.

I spoke with Chris about my lack of finding photographers and he suggested to put up some posters with some information about the project and my contact details however almost a week later and I haven't had any emails or messages from any one wanting to work with me. 

Nevertheless while I was in the makeup studio last week working on Athena's wig Chris came into the room to speak to Lottie, he was with a first year photographer called Peter who is really good. After briefly meeting with him in the studio I messaged him to see if he would be interested in doing some of the photography for the project. He then wanted some more information about the shoots and I send him mood boards for the Aphrodite and Athena shoots and he offered to help. This made me feel really excited about the shoots as Chris had told me that although Peter is a first year student really good with studio photography. 

Although Peter is really busy with his own shoots and assignments we have arranged times that suit both of us for the shoots & I look forward to working with him.
