Models with their own stylists..
How common is this? Came up in another thread, and it'd never even crossed my mind before.. Jan 08 07 03:47 pm Link I've read people who say they bring them, but in 5 years, I've never met someone who actually did. Jan 08 07 03:53 pm Link I've had 2 shoots where the model brought a stylist. Jan 08 07 03:57 pm Link I get asked by models all the time to go with them to shoots. Or I've had a few ask me just to come into the closets and pick out the right clothes to wear.

Jan 08 07 04:24 pm Link I have a stylist/MUA now, but she's my friend and helps me out cuz of our friendship. But you're probably talking about real models with real stylists, aren't you?

Unfortunately, a couple times the "stylist" was just the model's friend who knew NOTHING about makeup or hair and made the model look worse than she did when she walked in the door. And once, so help me, the stylist was better-looking than the model! I tried to convince her to join in the shoot, but she wasn't interested (and I wasn't about to push the issue). Jan 08 07 04:34 pm Link I've had several models bring MUA's and hair stylists to shoots. So far it was a huge help every time. This one: https://www.modelmayhem.com/pic.php?pid=1571505 brought a MUA/HS who spent more time on getting her ready than the actual shoot took. It was worth it. The ones that did this were experienced models (two of them were agency models who just wanted some fresh pics.) I've never had a model bring a "friend" to do her makeup or hair, although sometimes they ask the friend, on the rare occasion they bring one, to come in and watch them put on the makeup and let them know if they get it uneven or something.

Hence "secret". Most of these people don't think "wow, who took that shot?" or "gosh, who did her hair?" Jan 08 07 10:25 pm Link This is why it's important for photographers to be without a camera and surrounded by models who love them at industry events. "Who's that guy with all those models?" If you have a camera the other photographers will ignore you. Jan 08 07 11:11 pm Link JenniferMaria wrote: I see you missed my point. No worries.
