What should a model bring to a shoot?
I am hoping someone can give me some information on what to bring to a photo shoot, excluding wardrobe? Thank you!

If there's an MUA, the MUA doesn't always hang around until the end of the shoot. And nail polish or an extra set of acrylic nails - just in case. I'm planning to re-do a shoot, in part because one of the models lost two of her nails. Dec 07 12 04:33 pm Link Thank you for all the advice, much appreciated. Dec 07 12 05:21 pm Link Definitely ask the photographer before hand. Every photographer has a different image in mind - some want you to bring specific pieces of clothing, or tons of pieces to look at. Some like heels, others like tennis shoes for walking to different areas. Some want you to bring nothing but what you are wearing or a robe. Maybe a towel. Maybe props. Some will be annoyed if you bring every thing forever you might possibly want to use, and others will appreciate it. It is always best to ask such things before a shoot. Now, that said, a little bit of powder or gloss, if the shoot involves make-up, is great for freshening up and fits in your purse. Also, always bring your ID! Then all that is left is to bring yourself, and make sure you rock the shoot with your confidence. ;P Dec 07 12 05:30 pm Link Oomph. Dec 07 12 09:01 pm Link Why would a model bring makeup to a shoot? Spare heels, nude thong, safety pins, any personal hygiene products, maybe a spare ponytail holder. But mostly it's about energy and emotions Dec 07 12 09:18 pm Link Great helpful modeling info on many topics in Rachel Jay's blog Dec 07 12 10:03 pm Link AJScalzitti wrote: If there is no MUA touch-ups might be needed.

And I can't tell you how many times a model has forgotten to bring a hairbrush. The rest of your kit should become apparent after discussing the shoot with the photog. Dec 10 12 04:20 pm Link Money.
