videos in a weekly basis that you guys are gonna love
so as you guys can see i've moved to a new space a couple of weeks ago i took
you guys on an apartment hunt in los angeles hi
um i'm calling about a two-bedroom apartment
one bath that i saw available is posted right in front of the building
and that was a very excruciating process of trying to find something that was
ideal and also making sure that you're getting uh
value for what you're paying for um so if you guys haven't seen that video i'm
gonna leave a link to that video in the description box go check that out if
you're interested in moving to la so let's get into this video so in this
video i want to give you guys some best tips and best practices
on how to prepare for a photo shoot so that way when you guys show up on set
you're well prepared and you're ready to
go
okay guys so when you're doing the photo shoots one of the very first things that
um is going to get noticed by the makeup
artist by the photographer but anyone on set is your skin so you
want to make sure that your skin is in tip-top shape before you show up
to the photo shoots i don't know about you guys but it feels like whenever i
have a shoots i just somehow happen to get
that one pimple that just shows up a day before the shoot so
i don't know if you guys have ever experienced that before but um i'm going
to give you guys some tips on how to prevent that from happening
uh number one the very first thing i'll say is to drink a gallon of water
now you don't want to drink a gallon of water every day because obviously that's
kind of like a little bit excessive you want to do this maybe three days
before the shoot so three days before the shoots try to get a gallon of water
in a day if you don't get a gallon that's okay
just try to drink as much water as possible
because drinking water is going to help clear out your skin it's going to
hydrate your skin as well not only that the benefits of drinking
water is numerous but one of the top things
about drinking water from models is that it also de-bloats you so if you're
feeling bloated maybe you've been eating salty diets in
past few days drinking water is a good way to get rid
of that excess water weight in your body the next thing you want to
do to be prepared and look your best for the photo shoots is to do a three-step
face wash now obviously i hope everyone is washing
their face on a daily basis but you want to wash your face maybe
twice a day at least in the morning and just before bedtime
so now if you're not familiar with a three step face wash that usually
consists of some kind of cleanser to obviously wash your face
then you have a toner which removes the excess dirt from your pores and also
helps reduce the size of your pores and even out your skin and then you
usually have some kind of spf lotion or some kind of hydrating bomb
or nighttime serum or something like that so this is your three-step face
wash that you guys should do at least a week before the shoot so make
sure you're doing this at least twice a day if possible make sure you do
this twice a day a week in advance before you shoot and
this will help make your skin look vibrant and just glow in another thing
you want to make sure you're doing before your big photo shoot is exercise
so making sure you're exercising i'd like to exercise a week like five days
straight before the shoots make sure you exercise tone those
muscles sweat out those toxins from your pores
this will help you look great and feel good for your photoshoots and also shed
some excess pounds just before the shoots
another trick that a lot of models do just before the photoshoots is that they
take dandelion roots or a supplement called
waterex and waterex is basically a potassium
supplement that helps you regulates the water retention in your
body so i'm going to leave links to those in the description box
now dandelion roots also does the same it helps you manage the water retention
in your body as well so this way you're not looking
bloated on sets and your cheekbones are popping your muscles are
more toned and defined your abs are flat and chiseled
so this is a trick not a lot of people know about but it's very effective in
terms of making sure that you're not bloated on
the day of your shoots another trick and this is a no-brainer is to eat
clean models should eat clean at least nine meals out of ten
make sure you're getting your green leafy vegetables eating a well-balanced
diet this would also show up on your skin it
will show up on your overall radiance and appearance
so check this if you eat mostly junk food that's going to inhibit your
absorption of nutrients um not only that it's also going to
throw off your metabolism so it's going to be harder for you to
lose weight or to get the right body sculpture that you're looking for
one of the biggest causes of acne outside of hormones is
you know your diet so making sure you eat clean this is very important for the
health of your skin now the best thing you can do for
yourself just before your photo shoots is to sleep
sleep sleep sleep sleep sleep make sure you're getting adequate sleep at least
three days before your photo shoots if you're not getting
adequate sleep it's going to show up you're going to look tired your eyes are
going to look dead and dull so making sure you're getting enough
adequate sleep taking your vitamins as well
this will help you guys look sharp you're not going to have those nasty
bags under your eyes another tip is to stretch try to stretch
at least three days before your photo shoots
stretching is going to loosen your muscles and it's also going to give you
some creative ideas for different poses that you guys can do
so that way when you show up on sets you're not stiff another idea is to look
at magazines for creative shoots and for poses
take pictures save your favorite poses keep them in mind
practice them in front of a mirror i've seen people put together a pinterest
board for poses so this is also a good idea you can just
go on pinterest and search for poses and then just save some of the ones that
you like and you feel that you can use on your photo shoots
so guys so these are some very important tips on how to prepare for a photo shoot
