I planned everything carefully and it just took me a while to set everything up and make it happen. When you plan a photoshoot, it’s really important that you won’t miss anything, so I had a list – you know basic stuff: location, makup, logistics, etc. But then I came across Nick Onken’s blog post about what he calls “shooting a test”. He came up with awesome diagram, that is exactly what I needed. I modified it a little bit, but the idea is the same, and now whenever I’m planning a photoshoot – I’m gonna use that as a guide and checklist.  By the way, if you want to read more (and trust me – you do) about “setting up a test” from Nick, go ahead.

Diagram helps a lot, and even though it's kinda obvious for most photographers, it helps to have it in soft copy so you can look at it and make sure you didn't forget about anything!

Loved this post and helped afirm in my head that I'm doing everything right. I know the post is old, but I got just one question. Agencies, once you have your book together and you start reaching out to agencies. Exactly how do you do that? Call, write? mail in your book like a model? Show up? Not sure how to engage the next level and have them take me seriously. Hi Nick. Loved this post and helped afirm in my head that I’m doing everything right.
