**Requirements for TFP**
Please note that in MOST cases I will need to be paid for my time/trade/talent/education/and years of service. I am willing to work in the parameters of your budget. However if I like your work and you meet the following requirements we could arrange a TFP project.
REQUIREMENTS FOR TFP
-I have a genuine interest in your work and the project
-You compensate my gas and âextra/randomâ kit expenses
-It is a project that will produce tear sheet, press, air time etc
Travel
If you are outside of my state I will need to have my expenses paid for and a temperature controlled environment for my kit during the cooler and hotter months.
**TIPS for MODELS!!**
Most professional models know by experience about what needs to be done before a photo shoot.
If you do not have a lot of modeling experience I suggest you look over the following list of
things that will help you for this shoot and in the future. The more of these guidelines you follow
the better your shots will turn out.
1. 72 hours before your photo shoot, avoid the following items (these items can give you
oily skin and swelling):
a. Red meat
b. Alcohol
c. Caffeine
d. Spicy foods
e. Retin A and Alpha Hydroxy creams (causes skin peeling that will show with
photo makeup)
2. Drink lots of water, carry it with you everywhere you go, and keep sipping.
3. Exfoliate your skin at least once a week and also the morning of the shoot.
4. Have your brows PROFESSIONALLY shaped and then keep them up by plucking the strays
every few days. I will Pluck strays the day of the shoot but probably will not have time to
shape your brows.
5. It is a good idea to carry your own mascara to the shoot with you. Some make-up artists
use mascara with the same wand on several people. This can spread infection very
quickly. Unless you know the artist and know that she only uses disposable wands, it's
best not to take your chances. I do use disposable wands!
6. Dark roots will look even worse in photos. Refresh your hair color a few days before
your shoot. If you do not color your hair, try âshadesâ or a toner just a shade lighter then
your hair to make it shine. If you need a trim, do it before the shoot.
7. Fingernails and toenails should be one length, well manicured, and the polish should
be colorless or French, unless this shoot calls for color.
8. All traces of makeup should be gone from your skin. All eyeliner and mascara should be
gone. Your face should be clean and product free when you arrive.
9. Do not over condition your hair before a shoot. Do use your regular styling products to
make your hair behave, as chances are the hair stylist will not be wetting your hair and
not be able to use gels, etc. Your hair must be dry before you arrive at the shoot.
10. Avoid dry lips by putting Vaseline on your lips before bed and the morning of your
shoot. Exfoliate your lips by brushing them when you brush your teeth.
11. For body (lots of skin showing) shots, be sure you get rid of tan lines by visiting a
tanning booth a few times.
12. Donât do the spray on tan, it looks orange in photos and it looks streaky 90% of the
time. Spray on tans have ruined shoots for everyone involved.
13. If you have facial hair and you are a woman you need to have it waxed before the shoot.
Peach fuzz will show up on your skin, in fact it will look worse in photos then it does in
person. People get used to it, you may have it and not be aware until the photos come
back.
14. Get rid of body hair. Anywhere and EVERYWHERE it could possibly show.
15. Bring strapless bras, nude undergarments and a tube top usually comes in handy.
16. Wear loose comfortable clothing to the shoot, clothes that bind will leave marks.
If you are paying the artist, feel free to give advice on how you want to look. The photos are
yours and you will have to live with them. If it is a test shoot, editorial, commercial shoot or a
shoot that someone else is paying for itâs best to keep quiet on makeup and hair. Chances are
the artist knows what the photographer and art director want. It may not be what you prefer but
normally the person paying for the shoot likes to make ALL the decisions. If you are new at
modeling it is a good idea to go ahead and let the artist make the decisions, even if you are paying
her or him. In most cases they will know what will look better in the photos - they are dealing
with lights, backgrounds and lens filters that you probably are not familiar with. Telling an artist
or stylist how to do their job or how you like your makeup is the quickest way to insure you
wonât work much.
Once you are on the job here are some industry
etiquette tips
1) Do not chat or answer your cell phone unless it's an emergency.
2) Do not eat or drink while in the makeup/Hair chair
3) Don't smoke or take smoke breaks, wait until the job is done and never smoke in wardrobe
provided for you.
4) Be 15 minutes early to every job, traffic is never an excuse for being late....you need to assume
heavy traffic.
5) Don't comment on the clothing, hair or makeup you are in, these are decisions out of your
hands for a reason.
6) Never bring anyone to a job, this is very unprofessional and
there is rarely room to
accommodate more people on a shoot.
7) If you are asked to bring wardrobe, bring more than you are asked to bring, clients change their
minds so bring lots of choices.
8) Never touch your makeup or hair, do not adjust your clothing, these are things the stylist and
artist will do for you, that's why we are here.
*******Note from ME********
IM THE REAL DEAL!! There are many people out there who can CLAIM to be a makeup artist but proof is in the EDUCATION, their KNOWLEDGE, EXPIERIENCE, and YEARS of service! Please do your research and remember YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!!!!! Im not a MUA who does this just to build a portfolio or for fun. Been there done that and then again 400 hundred MORE times (lol)! I do this because I AM a true MUA expert and professional this IS what I'm best at! I have the expierience, talent, and knowledge that far exceeds many in my field!
Cocky no! CONFIDENT yes!
This is my playing field I AM THE BEST!
Thank you and I look forward to making you look SIMPLY AMAZING!
