MODELLING TIPS

Photo By Topshots

If your a new model with no experience it can be very confusing, one of the most common questions I get asked is, how do I get started ?

Well it seems you need to get something that’s called a portfolio, every one seems to know it’s name, and lots of people phone me looking for one, BUT (and it’s a big one, specially in these jeans) they don’t seem to know what it is. I get asked, do I do portfolios? I say yes, they say how much will it cost? Well that’s the elephant in the room, I don’t know, because although I have started lots of portfolios hopefully I never finished one.
Let me explain, a portfolio is simply a record of the work you have done.
So ask a photographer can you do a shoot for my portfolio, if he or she says yes you ask can I see your work, if he or she says yes ask if he can introduced you to other photographers, if he or she says yes then arrange a time and place to see it, this will probably be at their studio, but not always. I like to meet in the pub I like the relaxed atmosphere plus there are always lots of people there. This can be very useful when meeting a model if they don’t have a friend to come with them NEVER go to a place you don’t know to meet someone you don’t know, if there’s no one there and no one with you (this will only end in tears) this is why I like the pub, not because I’m a bear soaked alcoholic. If all this go’s well and you like both them and there work' then and only then you can ask how much will it cost? Although by then it probably won’t matter if he or she is the right photographer for you.

Richard, killed in battle in 1485, will be reinterred in Leicester Cathedral.http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-21063882

Fantastic Hen Hight

Photo by Topshots

What a fantastic way to start a hen night! When Rebecca decided to have fancy dress at her hen night with a burlesque and pin-up theme, she thought it would be fun to have the girls photographed in their outfits. Pin-up party’s are always fun and this was no exception, there’s nothing like a couple of bottles wine to get any party started. So it’s late afternoon and the girls turn up in the costume their going out in that night. Quick chat about the photos and off we go, individual photos first then the group shots, job done. Off they go to the restaurant for 7.30pm then a night club later leaving me to work on the photos, they each got a print as a reminder of the night which I’d promised to deliver in a few days. It seems to be the latest thing go to a photo studio and have some photos done, it works very well for hen nights birthdays or even just to start a night out. The studio makes a good place for every one to meet and then to go on to the other things that have been planed. Now the photo shoot it’s self as started to become the party. Why wait for a special occasion like an hen night when you and your mates can spend an evening at the photographers, with a couple of bottles of wine from the supermarket and sharing the cost of the shoot can make for a cheep night out. The best thing is that you have something more than just a fat head to show for it, which has got to de a good thing. to contact Topshots click on the linkwww.haveashoot.co.uk
