The reason I use Test Shoots is to determine if the person has real potential for me to use as a model. In this case to use as a Boudoir or Artistic NUDE model in sexy,provocative, or artistic nude images. We do not do porn! This is a challenging shoot -- it is difficult for some to pose in this manner while still maintaining their composure and presence. Just a friendly warning on this - if you are comfortable being exposed already you may find it easier than, for instance, someone who just wants the challenge - I am only interested in serious people - people who want to push limits and are willing to work hard and take some risk to do so. We are about making beautiful images - not porn!
The purpose of this shoot is not particularly to create images, post them, create publicity for you, train you, get you up on Instagram, etc. I have other offerings for that and would be happy to work with you in other ways. The only real purpose of this effort is to see if we want to take a next step towards something together. Please ask me about other options if that is important to you right now.
The test shoot is performed in my studio location in Lance aux Epines or possibly in a safe and private place of your choosing - you will pose in 3 types of looks that I will tell you about below - note - I will not be doing a full glamour workup on the images we make - editing blemishes, etc. following the shoot - please do not count on this. In any event, you should be prepared to do your own makeup and arrive with your hair, brows, and nails in good condition. If you do not have experience in posing that is no problem and not something to be concerned with at all. I will help you.
You should probably allocate 3-4 hours of so of total time. I will ask you not to use your cell phone for messages or other communication but you should consider bringing music that makes you feel sexy and turned on if you have it. Please arrange for any daycare needs someplace else. You may bring a chaperone or friend but let me know in advance please - no BF or GF please though.
There is no cost to you for this test shoot. Assuming a successful test shoot I have a number of options for you to choose from as far as training and shooting for beauty, grace, artistic images, etc. that we'll potentially discuss.
One of things I am trying to determine is whether you are easy to work with, will follow directions, are passionate about succeeding, and comfortable with your body. Start off by being on time or early. Do NOT be late, do not cancel, please set yourself up for success.
If you need transportation I will pick up up at the Sugar Mill Roundabout if necessary, just let me know in advance
Here's how to do this if I ask you to.
You'll need to send me a couple (2) profile images from your cell phone (I will tell you how to take them below) first before we even begin with the test shoot - take the pictures right now with your cell phone or have someone help you and send them to me. Please do NOT send me pictures from a while ago unless they were taken within the past year by a professional photographer using professional equipment and settings.
Thanks.
Take a full face headshot (from the front ) looking at the camera directly in good light. Do not make faces, pose or use any filters at all on the camera. Do not use any makeup, eyeliner, eye lashes, etc. I want to see just you. Do not edit the image in any way, remove pimples, scars, etc. I am trying to understand your facial type and your skin complexion. Make sure the picture is in focus, crisp and sharp.
Take a full body shot - feet to head from the front. Take it in good light wearing a tight outfit - a sheet, bathing suit or underwear is best but a tight tee and shorts is OK too. Please do not pose in any way. Do not use filters on your camera, special effects or try to modify in any way what you look like. I am trying to see your body, posture and general appearance. Make sure the picture is in focus, crisp and sharp.
Since an important part of modeling is also about listening to instructions, following them, and performing; how you work with me, follow instructions, and how easy you are to fully communicate with is one way I personally determine if I want to work further with you - please follow the simple directions in this document. Make it easy for me to work with you - just follow instructions and get complete on this.
You might be surprised at how often people do not follow my instructions or make up their own rules and methodology - if you have trouble reading or following instructions completely it will impact your ability to secure modeling positions - it will - trust me - it really is NOT enough to be pretty or handsome! If you do not understand the instruction it is your responsibility to contact me and ask me about it - make sure you know what this is about, that you believe it is something you want to do, and that you are prepared!
Please bring the following to your test shoot once we have gotten the Profile Images out of the way. If you are uncomfortable bringing and wearing these items please talk to me before you make the appointment - we'll need to be clear about how this might restrict you and may impact my desire to work with you to be honest about it. Please check over your clothing before you come to make sure you have everything I have asked for - forgetting something is not good. You are welcome to bring multiple pieces of the same thing - we will decide which you'll wear when you get here. Bring a whole suitcase if you'd like to. Check any clothing to make sure it fits, is in good condition and that it meets the requirements below.
Women | Men |
2 outfits that you think are great - preferably ones you think make you look sexy - colors are good, revealing, well fitting, whatever - no denim |
