How to Model 101

  • Try to elongate your neck for maximum extension
  • Always pose with tension in your body completely from head to toe
  • Mix it up with innovative poses. Don’t do the same pose over and over again. Make slight changes to the way your hand, body and legs are posed
  • Show up to a photo shoot with clean shaven, clean face, and clean hair.
  • Be aware of where the light source is set up. Always face towards the light source, not away from it
  • Create intensity for the camera through your eyes. As Tyra Banks describes it…. Smize (smile with your eyes)!
  • Give a lot of personality in each shot
  • If it helps, ask to play your favorite music playing when you do a shoot! The beat will kick your poses up 10 notches!
  • Practice practice practice in front of the mirror to work out what angles look best.

Paige

I rocked up to FRM Model Management yesterday to meet Stephan Bucknall to chat all things models and fashion photography, and towards the end of the our conversation a gorgeous fresh face, Paige walked into the office. Stephan then asked me if I wanted to take a few snaps of Paige, and of-course without hesitation I took his ancient mini Canon compaq camera and went around the streets for a spontaneous shoot. Though I wished I had my big guns (for quality purposes), sometimes it is a good test of your photography skills. I often get asked, what camera to buy but quite honestly all you need is mastering good understanding of light, creative direction, composition and creative eye, and you are set to create amazing images.

Anyway, to end this post I am super thrilled to be working with FRM Model Management so you will be seeing a lot of stunning fresh faces popping up on my feed and blog. So stay tuned xx
