Smile "Shoot Dating" - It's like speed dating but for camera nerds...

A company called "Shoot Experience" have come up with a photographic form of speed dating.

"Shoot Dating" teams up lonely single photographers in groups of 4 (2 male & 2 female) and gives them a photographic treasure hunt to complete while they meet up with other teams along the way.

Full story on Amateur Photographer

That's OK.

Looks like a fun idea, I'll be interested to see what happens with it and whether it'll become a regular fixture.

That company does other fun things like photography treasure hunts, interesting to see a company doing unusual things with photography, look forward to seeing what they'll come up with next!

Sounds just up your street then OB, especially if quantity is taken into account. Note: I said quantity not quality.

How perceptive Forseti - and spot on - but rather "b itchy" - is it not !?!?

And I agree - quality beats quantity - everytime.

Anyway I have no worries on either count as I only use a compact - apparently - and of course there is the ever present moderating wife - complete with ball and chain.
