Getting Ready for Your Photo Shoot
The following are a few helpful tips to follow before arriving for your photo shoot. These reflect the questions most often asked by our models.

Identification
Remember you must bring along two (2) different pieces of identification. One must be a government issued photo ID such as a driver's license, passport, military ID etc. We must make a photocopy of the identification for every model even if you are not posing nude. Your identification is maintained securely and is only available to authorized individuals when required for inspection purposes.

Your Look
We are looking for guys between the ages of 18 and 65 with a variety of looks - everything from student to business executive. We are not necessarily looking for body builders but you should be physically fit and in good overall health. A few pounds over weight are ok but your weight should be proportionate to your height and build. Tattoos and piercings are fine, but should be kept to a minimum. Your complexion should be fairly clear. But don't worry if you wake up the day of the shoot with a zit - Photo Shop can make it go away.

If you have any noticeable bruises, scrapes, scabs or bandages then maybe we should reschedule your shoot. We want people to concentrate on your good points and not be distracted by any injuries.

Body and Facial Hair
Generally we recommend that you do not shave your body hair. This is especially true just before a shoot. Shaving can cause little red bumps to appear where you have shaved and when we film in high definition every bump looks like a mountain. If you must shave, please do so several days ahead of time and be sure to use an aftershave gel or moisturizer to calm your skin.

Shaved and trimmed pubic hair is popular with some guys but generally speaking most audiences prefer to see the natural look. If your pubic hair is on the wild side, we can always trim it a bit before we start shooting. But it is impossible to instantly grow back that bush. So if you don't normally shave your public hair please do not do it for the shoot.

Facial hair is ok but should be neat and trimmed. If you look good scruffy don't shave for a couple of days and if we like the look we'll go with it. Otherwise, you can shave on the set. We recommend that you consider getting a hair cut a few days before the shoot to make you look your best.

Tanning
A natural tan achieved over a long period of time looks great but do not tan or spray tan within four days of the shoot. We do not want to see dramatic tan lines and damaged peeling skin. A natural skin look is preferable. We can always add that glow with appropriate lighting.

What to Wear
Unless we are shooting a special theme, wear clothes that make you feel attractive and sexy. Bring along several changes of clothing that might give you different looks, everything from casual to dress-up. Clothes that show off your body are best - it gives the audience a hint of what's underneath. Clothing should be clean and logo free. Avoid patterns where possible.

Please do not wear underwear the day of the shoot. Wear loose fitting clothes to avoid marks on your skin "underwear lines". But do bring a selection of undies with you to wear during the shoot.

Most photo shoots do not involve footwear so don't go over board. Wear shoes that come off easily and are suitable for any outdoor filming that may be done.

Jewelry is used primarily as a prop for certain types of models. Unless requested to wear it, please leave it at home. Most nude photography requires the removal of all jewelry and piercings.

Props
If we are not going after a particular "look", props are not required. However, if you think holding your teddy bear makes you look sexy then bring it along and we'll see. Sex toys such as dildos are often used in shoots but check with us before you haul out the gear.

Preparations
Needless to say please shower or bath before arriving for the shoot. And be sure to clean everywhere the camera might look such as under nails and foreskin. If you will be engaging in anal sex as part of the shoot, be sure to give yourself a douche and ensure that your ass is squeaky clean.

Avoid wearing any makeup, fragrance and excessive amounts of hair gel and deodorant. Although it is a good idea to bring along some lip moisturizer especially in dry conditions. We will have mouth wash on hand or you can bring along your favorite breath mints. Be sure they are not the ones that turn your tongue and mouth green. Before the shoot you might want to diet and decrease your water consumption. But be careful not to overdo it. We don't want to hear your tummy grumbling or the sounds of burping and farting. There will be plenty of water and snacks on the set.

Condoms and Lube
If you will be engaging in sex with another model as part of your shoot we will supply condoms and lube. If you want to bring your own, please feel free to do so. However, we ask that condoms be clear or lightly colored and lubricants be water soluble.

Alcohol and Drugs
The consumption of alcohol and the use of drugs are not allowed on the set. If you appear to have recently used either when you arrive for the shoot, the shoot will be cancelled and you will receive no remuneration.
