We’re getting summer-ready and we’re certain you are too! Models Direct sees filming and photoshoots soar as the sun does in this popular season for modelling assignments. This is the peak time for work to come through our doors, our laptops, and phone lines, and with restrictions being lifted we’re forecasting that this summer 2022 is set to be huuuge!
Get ready for another blog about getting out your sunhats, sunscreens and fans. On your marks, get set, go!
Keep hydrated
It goes without saying, keeping hydrated is something you should do all year round but when the ferocious sun is high in the sky, it’s time to grab those large sustainable bottles (because we know how important it is not to waste and save the planet from plastic waste). Keeping cool on the inside will help you feel revitalised and energised, whether you’re basking in the cool waters along the beaches, sunbathing, and for any modelling assignments, near or far, that you may get booked for. Also, as a bonus, it’ll be great for quenching your skin’s thirst and looking good on camera.
Summer skincare and hair routine
It’s a good time to refresh and switch your beauty products and schedules to suit the change in climate. The lush tropical-esque weather means more hydration and a higher sun protection factor is needed to take care of your skin. Check in on your skincare and hair heroes to see what will give you that added moisture but in light consistency to suit the sunlight and potential humidity, and drying effect that your hair will be exposed to. Protection is the key to long term TLC.
Summer wardrobe ready
Before you do some major online shopping, get rummaging through your wardrobe; you never know what apparel you may find that will be perfect for the hot weather. Bring out everything and do a wardrobe overhaul so that you have everything on standby for drinks in the summer with friends, dinner with the family or assignments that have been organised by our dedicated team. If you need to top up your clothing line, add something that you usually wouldn’t buy and be adventurous.
Up to date portfolio images
The summer will be your chance to snap some amazing images with your summer wear, swimwear or loungewear. It’s the perfect recipe for compiling a more extensive portfolio that will show off your smile in the sunshine, relaxing with your favourite book or simply enjoying the longer daylight hours. It’s your chance to catch up on soaking vitamin D and snapping up super shots to impress potential clients.
