Then we upload our models’ images to our website (RU-IN52.com) and we ask you to vote for “who belongs with whom.” Each city, where RU-IN52 photographs, will have 6 to 8 art pieces created by you. The finished pieces are based on your perceptions, your stories, your narrative. Write about your picks, post a poem or simply describe what you think. Stay in touch. Like us, like your favorite models on FaceBook and keep up with events posted on our site – stuff like where we’re shooting, new art pieces in the works, what you can buy and where you can be photographed . . . who knows, you may end up in one of our photo shoots, you may be a favorite model or you may choose a winning photographic pairing. You are the art piece. Are you in?
