I know there are some beautiful ladies on here that model and I was hoping I could ask some advice. I've been asked to appear in a shoot (that will be "Maxim-like"?) in February. I've never modeled before, I'm 5'2" and didn't think that would be an option for me. Honestly, it's not something I see myself getting into, I'm very dedicated to my career and veterinary school. At the same time it does sound fun and I'm curious about the experience. I try to keep in mind we only live once and trying new things is the spice of your lifetime.
I suppose what I'm asking for is some pointers and thoughts. I'm aware of what implied nude means and also what time for print entails. I'm fine with wearing a swimsuit or lingerie as long as it's tasteful and nothing is photographed that would not be seen on the beach. Is it acceptable (professional? common?) for a photographer to approach a potential client on Myspace of all places? I'm not sure how to check a photographer's references or what should be on a model release to keep my best interests in mind.
I'm sorry if these are obvious questions but I really have no idea how to go about getting the information I need. If anyone has some links or experiences to share I'd be most grateful.
