Selection Process & Tips

The pictures submitted to Party Boating should be classy and provocative. They should capture the essence of the model and the bikini.

Here are some suggestions on how to produce great shots:

• Model on a public beach or in an area that has people. The surroundings should be as natural as the model.
• The bikini can push the limits or merely be a beautiful swimsuit.
• Models should look comfortable and confident in their bikini. The model needs to understand they are communicating with others via the camera lens which means that many times it's the look in the eyes that makes the shot.
• The photographer and model should give careful consideration to the type of shots they are going to take before snapping the shutter. A little advanced planning goes a long way toward success when its time to take the picture. Poised and action shots are great.
• Good quality pictures start with a good camera. Pay special attention to the lighting when taking a shot. The model may have to change positions to avoid shadows and dark spots.
• The model's face must be shown in some of the shots. Party Boating will not post any submissions where the model finds it necessary to modify the picture to hide her face or where all the pictures submitted show only body parts and no face. This is about the entire model, not just her body parts.
• Put as much of the model in the frame as possible. Most of us know what sand and water look like. If you can manage to marry the model with a boat or jet ski, great! And if you can put the model with a hot boat, better yet!
• A couple of close-ups would be great, but no bare genitalia or floss shots.
