Red Flags to Avoid While Working With Photographers

Articles, Models

Some models we have worked with told us about situations in which they felt uncomfortable, and worse, abused in one way or another. We gathered several red flags we, ourselves, noticed or we heard from fellow models who shared their stories with us. As a rule of thumb, you should leave the place if there is something making you uncomfortable and the person in charge there is not helping with the problem. Follow your gut feeling in these kinds of situations. If a voice inside you is suspicious and asking you to leave, it’s better to leave. There will be always more modeling opportunities down the road. Photographer Invites You To His Own Place For Photoshoot If a photographer invites you to his own house or apartment for a photoshoot, it will be likely an unpleasant experience, to ...

Seven Universal Fashion Styles

Fashion, Beauty, Editor's Pick

There are seven main different categories that fashion trends or styles could fall under. Let’s briefly talk about each one and what makes them unique in their own way. TRADITIONAL STYLE Traditional fashion revolves around culture. It is the putting together of garments, accessories, and jewelry that roots back to an identifiable group of people. ELEGANT STYLE Elegant fashion emphasizes the use of neutral-colored pieces and simple fine, clean lines. Classic and minimalist yet so classy.

How To Deal With Rejection As a Model

Models, Articles

I once asked a casting director about the average volume of applications they receive for the modeling projects they cast. Without hesitation, he said that they typically get close to a thousand applications within 24 hours of the casting notice going live, even if they are looking for only one model. This is the case if they are looking for a highly competitive genre and age group mix such as female models, 18-30 years old. For other roles targeting different age groups or non-female models, the volume may not be that high but there would be still hundreds of models to compete with. This means there is a high chance of getting rejected in every type of modeling work. If there is a model call for a runway show, you may see dozens of models lined up at the call time. If it’s an auditi...
