Unbridled Beauties of DoubleHP 2011 Calendar

(our third consecutive year) – more sponsor options – more sponsor exposure - more pages - more photos – more color - more beautiful than ever before!
Each page is 11X14. That’s right, the feature photo for each month is 11X14!
We hope to add 6 more pages this year, for a total of 38 pages; and publish the finished calendar online, for the whole world to see and purchase!
Conservatively sexy theme, featuring beautiful women and horses.
Fundraiser to help feed and care for horses rescued from starvation.

100% volunteer project.

Sponsorships:

A Mane Sponsor is $75 or more. For every $75 sponsorship, you receive a calendar & business-card-size sponsor space on at least 2 pages.

Mane Sponsorship Spaces may be company logo or possibly other photo, basic contact info, web address, a dedication, memorial, tribute, thank you, or anonymous, or perhaps another idea you may have. A $150 sponsor is the only sponsor for that month and may double the sponsor display space. All sponsorships $10 and up are published (text only) on sponsor page in calendar (unless sponsor requests “anonymous”). Sponsorships in any amount are greatly appreciated.

Models: Must be at least 21 years old.

Most of the women in our calendar are not professional models, but they look like they are! Horse experience not required, but it’s helpful.

Informal, individual photo shoots (can schedule at model’s convenience).

But we’ll also try to have one or two group-shoot dates.

Models get at least one month and one calendar for each $150 sponsorship money turned in. Plus chance to be on the front cover and on extra pages! Models receive a CD with photos on it for personal use. Not for profit though. Copyright belongs to DoubleHP and/or photographer.

Approved Models may choose month, horse, photo ideas, etc,

when they turn in $150 sponsorship money. If a Model pays her own $150 sponsorship, she has more space for more photos on her month pages and will receive the sponsor calendars for that month too.

Accepting sponsors and models for Unbridled Beauties of DoubleHP 2011 Calendar



The Purpose of the Calendar: It's a fundraiser to help feed & care for horses rescued from starvation or slaughter. DoubleHP (Horse Help Providers, Inc.) is a 501c3 nonprofit organization that operates totally through volunteers, sponsorships and donations. The horses in the calendar are these actual rescued horses, and a few of their friends who live at New Hope Horse Shelter.

This is the inside cover and below page in the 2010 Calendar:


Here are a few "sneak peeks" from our July 11, 2010 photo shoot. These photos probably won't be in the 2011 calendar, but similar ones will be. (in most of these below, the horse models weren't quite ready)


Sponsorships are acts of kindness. (though we are 501c3 so you should check with your "tax guy" regarding charitable donations).
Sponsorships are NOT paid ads. We cannot advertise any specific products or services for you. No coupons no nothing like that. of course company name logo basic contact info that's all good. If it's a personal type sponsorship you may do dedications, thanks, etc. Sponsorships may be anonymous too.

Models: We have established a certain "look" for our calendar. Models do not need to have professional modeling experience but they need to "be" model-like. Models do not need to be experienced horsewomen. It is helpful but not a requirement. During the photoshoot, some models do not get on a horse at all. The photos are all beautiful, whether the model is on the horse or not. This is a total volunteer project. Models do their own or each other's hair & makeup and help each other out with outfits, poses, etc. Some of them help get the horses ready when they are done with their own photoshoot. Models will need to follow our theme: "conservatively sexy." This means topless (but creatively covered), perceived topless, bikini/bra, or open shirt, etc., you get the picture.  Models receive a CD of their photo shoot, for their personal use, not to make money selling the photos. The copyright belongs to DoubleHP. Our photographers are extremely easy to get along with. They too volunteer for this project! Plus, every model has the chance to be on the calendar front cover. These photos are selected after the photoshoot, and we never know what we might end up with until after the photoshoot is done. The surprise effect is fun! Our Models are beautiful, conservatively sexy, fun-spirited, kind, respectful of animal welfare, compassionate toward all living beings, and eager to volunteer and raise funds for a nonprofit organization. That's what they all have in common. New Models for 2012 will have to be at least 21 years old. New Model applicants will need to send or email us some current photos. The more closely these photos follow our calendar theme, the better. But in general, we would like to know that you are comfortable with our conservatively sexy theme and that you pretty much will add to the consistent look of our calendar. And if you have some excellent ideas for a month/pose etc., that won't hurt your chances any either! Once you become an Unbridled Beauty for 2012, you may select a month, idea, horse, if you want to. You'll need to get to work securing your sponsorship(s). Which should be much easier this year since we have more options for sponsors this year (options for lower sponsor amounts).

Contact us: If you have questions about the calendar, if you want to be a sponsor and/or a model for 2012, please call us or email us. (605) 359-0961. doublehphorses@alliancecom.net

This, 2011, is our third calendar, so we do have some success/reputation to carry with us now. Most people call it "art." Men and women like it, though some don't want to admit it. It probably is not for youth though, with the conservatively sexy theme.
