About Usefilm member Phil Cassell innocently hatched an idea: have a bunch of women show up for a shoot, and the cost of admission is...a black dress.

The idea caught fire, and took on a life of its own. Each day of preparation brought more models and more assistance from others in the community. As the shoot approached, we knew this was going to be something special. At day's end, we had more than 50 models, 3 makeup artists, 3 studio photographers and 2 roaming candid photographers all coming together for a charity photo event that was simultaneously exciting, exhausting and EXCELLENT.

Here's a taste.

That seamless was bright white, but I had shut off my strobes pointed that way, and was lighting only by softbox camera left and a strobe above her on a boom to light her hair.

As for my Canon 17-85, I LOVE it! Yes, I did have to send it back to Canon after a couple years to repair a problem that was popping up as 'Error99" in my viewfinder. At that time, I certainly did a have couple large pieces of dust on different internal lens elements, and they cleaned it when they repaired the electronics for ~ $120

Great pose and lighting, her expression is nice too. Probably I would have kept her fingers in the frame.
Now I have two questions for you if you don't mind:
1) what is the color of that seamless background?
2) are you happy with that lens? have you had any dust getting inside the lens.
Thanks

Thanks, Edlira.
Perhaps the hardest part will be to pick the very best shots. I have to narrow my list from 50 models and more than 1200 shots!
