Nanaimo photographer brings talent together with new group:Facebook VIMP site allows Vancouver Island artists to share skills
After searching for a way to connect the models, photographers, stylists and makeup artists of Vancouver Island, Lila Parks turned to social networking.
The Nanaimo photographer decided to create a Facebook group to provide a place for artists to network with one another.
In December, Parks developed Vancouver Island Models and Photographers, otherwise known as VIMP.
“It became a handy tool for models looking to update their books by posting their availability,” said Parks in an e-mail, “and for photographers looking to cast for particular photo shoots.”
A year ago, Parks took up photography as a hobby, but was soon inspired to seriously pursue fashion photography.
She said with the number of photographers and models on the Island growing daily, the region is making a name for itself in the fashion world.
