Ok then, your opinions would be helpful.
1. How many photographers
2. How many models
3. How long
4. Reasonable cost
speaking to friends 2 and half hours, 2 models for the reason if one does not turn up. £50 each 6 photographers. just worried they may be low on the cost

All depends really.

1 - as few as possible... two at most to get the best time with the model. Make sure you know the other tog well so you can both help each other. I have fond that when there are more than 4 or 5 photographers there, things get a little boring and repetitive.

2 - I've worked with a single model and 2 models. Personally, if it's just you and another tog it's better with just the one, but probably better with two models if you are in a group shoot.

3 - Time flies by. Simple as. How much time you need depends on many things, but make sure you plan what you're after and that the model knows exactly what you're after. Things tick along quite nicely then.

4 - Depends on the hire of the location. If you are using a studio then I've seen these for hire at £30-£40 per hour fully kitted. But you may be able to get a room hire for significantly less, especially if you have your own kit. I pay £5 an hour for a smashing location in a private area of a park. Can go outdoors or stay inside - whatever is required. Shop around as there's bargains to be had.
