Is my model partner cheating on me???

Is my model partner cheating on me??? 

 

If your going to be a model there are a few ethical issues to consider when your booked for a shoot.  It could be that you refuse to shoot partially nude, suggestive poses or modeling cigarettes.  Well what about kissing another model?  This is something to think about if your dating an insecure partner.  Make sure you discuss this with your real partner before you accept these modeling jobs.

 As a character model (model who acts) I was greeted by the art director at the studio and introduced to my on set boyfriend (another model).  Is was an intimate scene of a happy couple spending time together.  We were told to spend 30mins getting to know each other.  In other words in order to make the photo shoot seem realistic we had to feel the chemistry with each other IMMEDIATELY.  So we started talking and flirting with each other to find that spark for the shoot.  We found it alright, he is a hot, cute guy.  So when it came to the shoot we got it on right away.

 

However, I felt like I was cheating and couldn't help think about my husband.  Holding very close poses, breathing on each other as the photographer re positions the lights.  One scene can take up to an hour to shoot.  Fashion models do it all the time and believe me the set gets very steamy.


      

Luckily my husband doesn't show up on set but I think it's odd that I get paid to kiss another man and not break my vows at the same time.
That night I felt strange to be around my husband after spending the whole day rolling around on set with another man and building a bond.  Some models find it hard to leave the bond behind at the studio.  The experience affects them and leaves them to day dream about the experience.

                           
 Then there are the simple couple shoots with less intimacy involved.  Just fun happy shots with no pressure.


                  

I must admit on some shoots it affected me but my husband is wonderful.  He knows as a model I play the wifey role (always for some reason) BUT he made it clear as long as he doesn't see the pictures he is fine with it.

shhhh don't tell.

Different types of modeling

Type of modeling jobs

Fashion Modeling

When we think of models generally we think about the tall slim fashion models used at the top fashion shows around the world in New York, London & Paris.  These supermodels who model the latest collections for the top fashion houses are extremely well paid.  Some are celebrities as well as fashion models appearing on magazine covers.













Commercial Modeling

Models are needed to promote all kinds of products including food, holidays, cars, furniture, lifestyle, shops and hotels.
Advertising Modeling comes in many different forms from TV, newspapers, magazine and billboard adverts. Skills in acting might set you apart from the rest, as well as an outgoing personality and strong self presentation skills.


Modeling for TV & Films

Film and TV companies often have a specific look in mind for their filming and very often a model fits the bill! Appearances can start as an audience member, extra or walk on, background artist or featured role in a TV series, film or video. Once you started to get your foot in the door make sure you keep a show reel of what you have appeared in, as this could generate more TV and Film Modeling

You don't have to be a fully trained actor to appear on TV or in films, most casting agents are looking for an outgoing personality, looks that set you apart from everyone else and confidence.



Catalogue modeling for babies, children

 Catalogue modeling can easily fit around anyone’s life as either a full or part time profession and usually attracts parents, who either model themselves or manage their child’s modeling career.
 
E- Catalogues and paper catalogues such as Gap, Carters, The Next Directory, Freemans, Kays and Look Again use many models from new born babies, children, teens, male and female models selling everyday products to consumers. Catalogue modeling can provide regular work because of the change in seasons each year which launches new clothing and trends. Pay is usually generous within this sector because of the vast number of images that are taken to display the ranges of clothes stocked by the company. These pictures are displayed in both print and online catalogues.
