Preparing for a Model Shoot

How to prepare for a model shoot can depend a little bit about what you want to get out of it, for example is ti your first shoot, or are you just looking to update a few images. Here are some tips and way you might consider in preparation:

1: Connect with the photographer: have a briefing call prior to the shoot so both of you know what to expect.

2: Care Routines: do you have any care routines like hydration, skin care, body care, make sure you keep on top of these.

3: Hair: How will you have your hair, will there be a stylist on site, is it a studio or street photography?

4: Diet: Getting good nutrition can help keep up your energy levels on the day.

5: Outfits: Will you have one, or multiple, can you get changed or do you need to layer?

6: Grooming: Do you need to bring any items to help you on the day (lipstick, tissues, towel, brush etc).

7: Practice: what goal will be accomplished, are you guided by the photographer, or expected to be competent without direction.

8: Punctuality: Don’t be late, if you’re having travel issues, tell them in advance, schedules often are really tight, don’t make them wait.
