Model tests are photoshoots crafted to provide images that enhance & diversify your portfolio.
Each shoot aims to capture a collection of photos that highlight your versatility and skills as a model. Whether you are just starting out, or are represented with an agency and in need some updates, a modeling portfolio is necessary. I focus on creating an environment where you can feel comfortable trying things out, having fun, laughing a lot, but also knowing I'll be there to offer you guidance as needed. We will work together to create a range of looks, ensuring that your images are timeless, varied and valuable. I want you to enjoy the experience and leave with images that will book you work!
Here’s the breakdown:
1. Connect with Me
After reviewing my portfolio and confirming I’m the right fit for you, schedule your session below! Once you’ve selected a date, paid the deposit and signed the contract, your session is officially booked!
2. Planning
To make the most of our time together, we discuss key details like styling, wardrobe, and locations. I’m committed to providing a stress-free experience, and pre-planning is essential for that. My sessions are on location only, and I have carefully selected areas that offer diverse settings for your shoot. If you have representation, let me know, as your agent/manager might want to provide input on what’s missing from your portfolio.
Wardrobe is required be finalized at least one week before your session. If you have representation, check with your rep for wardrobe approval to ensure your portfolio meets their expectations. Need help? I’m happy to assist with styling suggestions based on your portfolio needs. Let’s work together to perfect your look!
3. Shoot Day
It’s time for our session! Thanks to our planning, you’ll feel more prepared than you realize. Think of this day as a creative adventure with a friend—stay open-minded, have fun, and trust the process. I’ll guide you every step of the way to make sure you feel supported and confident.
4. After the Shoot
Once our session is complete, I’ll upload the images to a proof gallery and carefully curate the best shots. Even top supermodels have outtakes, so I’ll remove any that don’t meet professional standards. Within 72 business hours (often sooner), you or your rep will receive an online proof gallery to select which images are to be retouched.
After the images have been selected, I’ll begin retouching. My approach is very minimal but impactful, focusing on enhancing each image with color correction, light skin touch-ups (like blemish removal), and eliminating major distractions. I do not perform major alterations such as face swapping, body contouring, removing wrinkles from clothing or erasing natural textures from skin like pores, wrinkles or fine lines—your skin is meant to look real and real skin with texture is beautiful.
5. Delivery
Final retouched images will be delivered via WeTransfer. Be sure to download them to a computer (not a mobile device) to maintain the integrity of the files.

Add professional digital’s to your session!
Digitals are an industry standard to show what you currently look like without heavy make up and editing. Ideal for those seeking representation (or additional representation in a different market) or for those with representation needing to update their agency digitals on file.
1 look (Standard clothing digitals -OR- Body digitals (swimwear) includes 7 images with minimal to no editing: (2) close up (smiling & non smiling), (2) profile, (1) three quarter, (1) full length, and (1) casual pose. Images are sent directly to your agency for selection or available to you for immediate use.
This does add an additional 30 minutes to your session in order to allow for your digitals to be taken, and for you to prep for your first look.
