You don't need one, long as you have a shutter release cable. Just put your camera to bulb mode lock your shutter release and just time it with your phone 
that's all I ever do. I have a timer but I find myself just doing it manually that way.

I don't have a shutter release cable either.
my model Sony doesn't have a compatible one. IIRC the only remotes that work are IR based.

You could paint it with oils, or watercolors.

Single exposure for the star trails then obviously the forground with the school I exposed for separately . But I manipulated the star trails in PS to give the vortex effect.

i did download an app for the NEX-6 that was supposed to use the proximity sensor to start and end the shutter in bulb mode, but sadly it only works on the A7/S/R

I haven't posted any work in awhile now and a friend came up to asking help for her clothing line. I do need a boom stick to have a light on the subject's hair but other than that what else do you think needs work? Ive never done product photography, so this is somewhat new to me.

TBH as a product photo I wouldn't have used such a composiiton. Also I'd have cleaned up the background and ironed out the wrinkles in the dress.
Take a look at Lindsay Alder, she's got great advice on stuff like this.

I shoot people
I walk pass this building from time to time (or drive by) and never realized until the other day that they added something modern to an old building (here in Vancouver, when a building is considered "historical" they can't tear it down or redevelop unless there's a real good reason). I really like what they did... a mixture of the new and the old
