Models - FREE CONSULTATION - Strike the Pose
It’s not just a teen dream.
More so nowadays I find people who are out of work are looking at what else they can give to earn money.
You want your pose to have an edge that other models don’t.
To work in this industry patience is a virtue.
Once you make contact with myself or one of my professional photographers I work with, you will receive a ‘free telephone consultation’. I am also able to come along to your home to meet you and discuss your wardrobe for FREE.
Having a hair/make up stylist with clothes stylist gives models the direction that’s required to get the best out of the photoshoot with the photographer - a team effort.
Getting comfortable before the session, feeling relaxed and in top condition is paramount otherwise you won’t be happy on the day and it will appear to be a pointless effort.
THE BASICS…..Abdomen in, shoulders up, back straight unless of course it’s a more casual pose.
The aim is not to look artificial.
It can be daunting, but whatever your age myself and my team can make this important time for you relaxed and an enjoyable experience to remember.
A new model coming into the industry needs to make a real good first impression - so contact me on my form (the icon is on my first page)
http://www.wardrobewarrior.com/contact_me/index.html
and I’ll give you a call to discuss what YOU want to gain from your experience.
I look forward to speaking to you very soon.
Take a look around the rest of my site/blog to see more of what I’m about.

Spend Wise Wardrobe
Here’s ONEwardrobe stapleLOVER jacket - a modern twist classic to compliment these items I’ve chosen today.
Purchase carefully, think how will the item work with the rest of your wardrobe?
There’s plenty out there for us to enjoy -
best to try on before falling in love with the item as so many shoppers do fall in love with a piece on a rack -
what attracts them?
Generally it’s how the shop is displaying the items, the colour, the lighting and the atmosphere when you walk straight through their doors to immediately capture your senses.
Wear the jacket with:
An all-in-one casual tank, a horizontal striped Tee to add a little chicness or a casual top with a bit of sparkle.
Any casual top and the jacket will look great - just add a silk neck scarf and knot to the side.

Fashion Folios Model Workshop
FASHION FOLIOS MODEL WORKSHOP
Fashion photographer Mark Andreani has teamed up with Michelle Claire Styling to offer new or established models complete MODEL WORKSHOP sessions.
The new Fashion Folios workshops are ideal for anyone who has been considering putting a model portfolio together and doesn’t know where to start. There’s no more worrying about what or what not to wear, as you’ll have advice from your very own professional stylist, Michelle-Claire, who has run her own styling and personal shopping business for a number of years.
Photography for your portfolio session is by Mark Andreani, who has over 18 years’ experience and shoots fashion and advertising assignments for brands, designers, advertising agencies and events in the UK and across Europe.
Each model is allocated a personal slot of 60 mins in Andreani’s South London studio for make-up and hair-styling with a professional stylist with years of commercial experience. This is followed by a FREE 60 min studio session for photography with Andreani.
There is no charge for the 60min photosession, you simply pay for your styling consultation and hair and make-up.
The FASHION FOLIOS WORKSHOPS cost just £49 per person and there is a limit of FOUR PLACES only for each workshop.
The price of the workshop includes:
- Styling consultation with Michelle-Claire before the day of the workshop
- make-up and hair styling at the workshop
- 60min studio photosession with Mark Andreani
Following the photosession, you will have the opportunity to order single retouched images for your portfolio at £20 per image. Each retouched image is delivered to you online in high resolution digital file format - it’s yours to keep forever and you can use it to make prints, upload to online portfolios, submit to model agencies, etc etc.
