			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So <a href="http://www.brigitte.de/">Brigitte Magazine</a> has <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/05/germany-brigitte-magazine_n_309552.html">decided</a> to stop using professional models for its shoots. An interesting decision, separate from your feelings about the whole size zero debate. For a photographer, professional models are usually a pleasure to work with &#8211; they know their angles, they know what looks good, they take direction well, they will bring ideas if you want them, and are just generally easy to work with. They will deliver. Amateur models, and the girl next door, may or may not have these qualities&#8230;and finding out might well require more time on set to pull the best shot possible out of them. That of course can lead to longer shoots and higher fees for everyone else on the set.</p>
<p>Karl Lagerfeld (and other designers I&#8217;m sure) are <a href="http://www.thelocal.de/society/20091011-22497.html">less that excited</a> about this&#8230;it will be interesting to see how it plays out when they&#8217;re asked for samples to shoot with. Given Brigitte&#8217;s popularity, I&#8217;m sure the magazine will get what they want, but there probably aren&#8217;t a lot of size 6 samples floating around, so I suppose skinny &#8220;regular people&#8221; will be what we&#8217;ll see.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I get lots of email from models looking to do a photo shoot. I have one big suggestion for you all, when you&#8217;re contacting photographers:</p>
<p>Make sure your information you send along (this could be your resume, or your model profile on a modeling site on the web) is correct and up to date! Probably 25% of the profiles I look at, after receiving an email, are obviously wrong &#8211; usually in measurements that clearly have a typo. Start with your height, weight, sizes, and measurements &#8211; make sure they are correct!</p>
