Top 3 things to bring to a shoot

1. Enthusiasm: Models that come in with a fierce energy and are truly excited are opening themselves up to make the best portraits of their lives. Enthusiasm is exciting and brings energy to everyone involved.
   
2.  Wardrobes: Whether you are working with your Photographer on a simple headshot or a full Modeling Portfolio it is still important to bring plenty of wardrobes. A smart model will put together several complete outfits days before their photo sitting to make sure all the elements are included in the “look”. This includes the shoes (boots, heels, kicks, etc.), accessories like jewelry, hats, belts, scarves, and also any Props that might add energy and interest to a shoot. Even if a photographer has a wardrobe planned for you still bring your own, you never know what might work. Most of all, DO NOT bring wardrobe with logos on it unless you, your agency or representative for the shoot represents that brand.
   
3.  Bring basic make up (MU): Try to put together a small MU kit to bring with you. It's always important to bring a moisturizer and concealer that match your skin tone. There are a lot of shades of concealer out there and a MUA will not always have your shade. The concealer you use for photos should be 2 or 3 shades lighter than your skin tone. You will also want to use a good, solid foundation that matches your chin and neckline. A good powder is necessary to create that beautiful matte finish which is always present in a great portfolio. Powder makes the difference between a beautiful photo and just a photo. In order for your lips to stand out and be noticed, be sure that your lip gloss is a solid color and at least one shade deeper than you normally wear it. Your lip liner should be the same color as your lipstick. Bring eyeliner and light shades of eye shadow consisting of a few basic colors. The two key features in a photo are the eyes and lips. 
1. Try to stay away from: too pale tints of foundation, blush, powder that will bring you a vampire look. Black lip liner. Sparkling or frosted lip gloss as it can behave unpredictably on the photo. Dry and matte lipsticks that make the lips look old and thin. Any contrast color compositions.
