Beauty Modeling

There are many models who's body type does not lend itself to doing runway or other types of fashion modeling, who have faces with great bone structure and great skin. If you have these assets and can communicate directly with a camera lens, then perhaps beauty modeling is for you.

Rachel is a beautiful woman and has been modeling for a while. She decided to make a push toward beauty modeling. I brought in a make up artist that has a great understanding of cameras and photographers lights and how the camera sees. We did two looks for Rachel.

In addition to the two looks, I also set Rachel in more than one background to help her show versatility.

Her second look was more dramatic and we changed the lights for her to enhance the drama.

If you are getting started in modeling and don't have your body in shape yet, or are uncertain of your posing, try beauty modeling. It is not easy. It requires you to communicate emotion, or mood to the camera and you still need to have a good understanding of how small changes in your head, shoulder, and body position, along with subtle changes in facial expression affect the image.
