Modelling is not just about turning up and looking good.

It is about being adaptable and able to react well to different circumstances - being flexible.

For instance on some shoots you will need to show one emotion like love, lust, whilst on others you might need to show something like anger, hatred, exasperation and so on.

Therefore you need to be able to get in character for a shoot and be able to let go - for instance to scream at the top of your voice without inhibition which is tricky to do to get that great shot.

So practice at home in the mirror adopting different expressions to communicate different moods. It is not uncommon at castings for instance to be asked to show certain emotions in the photos so they can see if you are up to the job - practice up front and you have a great chance of doing well.
