Clothing
The key is to keep it simple and comfortable. Give some thought
to the looks you want, try them on at home, and bring those
outfits. Bring different necklines, textures, tops you can layer.
Solid colors tend to work best, some dark and some light because
we're looking for contrast. Nevertheless, maybe a subtle pattern
will be just right for a commercial look. Please remember: Clothes
should be clean and ironed! And finally, bring that one thing
you've always kinda wanted to have a photo in but didn't dare....

Hair/Makeup
OK, the whole idea is to capture you as you are, so that when
you walk into the audition or meeting you look like your picture. The single,
consistent piece of advice I hear from agents and casting directors is, "The
picture must look like you." That means you should be able to reproduce the
look of your pictures at home, on your own; so I urge you to consider doing your
own makeup for the pictures. In that case, for women the idea is to keep it even
and relatively light; about what you’d use for a "business" situation.
And men don’t really need makeup at all. Having said that, of course you are free
to use a makeup artist if that makes you more comfortable. When that is the case,
be sure to allow the extra time necessary so we can start on time. Women, please
bring your personal makeup with you to the session, and both men and women should
bring a powder that matches your skin tone to avoid shine. Bring your own brush
and comb and styling products. It's best to give haircuts at least a week to grow
out before photos.
