6 Tips for Models Coming to a Photo Shoot


Tip for model: Stay calm and positive

Relax so that you can get in the mood to model during the photoshoot. Sometimes I use tempo music at the shoot. Also, try not to drink or eat a heavy meal before the shoot as it can make you feel groggy which is the last thing a model needs.

Practice poses

Another important tip for model: Practice your poses before coming to the photoshoot. You can, for example, get a friend to take pictures with a phone. This way, you get two kinds of feedback: the photos and your friend’s comments.

Sometimes even the old trick of practicing in front of a mirror can be a great way of perfecting your poses.

Being able to pose, pretend, and mimic is really the hardest part of modeling. It takes a lot of practice and patience. The good news is that in the end, that practice will make perfect.

Research the pose

Search for shots and poses online or in magazines. See and study what other models do. Sometimes I even send my models poses before the shoot begins so that they will know exactly what I need. Let me give you a secret, more than 50% of models can’t properly pose, and the models who can are always prioritized over those who have a better appearance. No serious photographer would love to waste their time with an inexperienced model. But this doesn’t mean that a first-time comer won’t pass the casting. If she has great posing skills, she will!

Remember to feel confident

Get confident! Self-confidence does affect your physical appearance. So, a huge part of modeling is simply feeling great in your own skin. It takes time, but it will make you a great model.

Talk to your photographer. I know that when I meet models for the first time, I always take the time to talk to them and get to know them a little. Talking sets up trust between the photographer and model.

Also, feel free to make your own suggestions to the photographer. Since he’s the one calling the shots, it’s easier for a model to get her idea heard.

Take good care of yourself and your appearance

Make sure your skin is clean and moisturized. If you do the makeup yourself, also remember to pluck or wax your eyebrows. Get your make-up just right. If you’re working with ISA AYDIN Commercial Product Photography, most probably, we will take care of your makeup and hair ourselves. You can just sit and relax. That’s what modeling should be all about.

Avoid tattoos

If you are planning to be a model, avoid getting any tattoos. Most photographers and clients don’t like tattoos. In fact, a tattoo could be the sole reason for getting rejected. No photographer or editor likes to remove tattoos on every image. At least hold off from getting tattoos until you are done with your modeling career.
