Kube Studios Tips for Models

Kube Studios Tips for Models

Welcome back to the Kube Studios blog. Every month we see dozens of new faces come through the doors of our studios up and down the country. With fully equipped photography studios in Manchester, Birmingham and Central London, you’re never too far away! The team suggested that we should give some tips for first timers who are coming for their fashion photography shoots on what to bring, how to prepare, and what to do next.

Depending how long your shoot is booked for, select a number of outfits that complement each other. It’s a good idea to have one formal, one casual and a wild card – perhaps your going out on the town gear! This is so that you end up with a varied selection of photos that tell a story about you, your tastes and personality.

Many people get very nervous before a shoot, especially if they’re not sure what they’re walking into. Don’t panic! Kube Studios know that tension shows in photos, and we try to make everyone feel relaxed enough before getting started. We will take hundreds of photos and select the best ones to you after wards so don’t get anxious on set if you think you made a funny face!

Once you have your photos collated into a modeling portfolio you can start getting in touch with agencies. Ask at any Kube Studios for a list of agencies or guidance on what to do next!

Kube Studios Shaving Tips

Kube Studios: The Perfect Shave

Kube Studios are London's premier photography studio. Kube specialise in portfolio shoots and modelling shoots but cater for a wide variety of photography needs. In this post Kube Studios look  at the best way to give yourself a wet shave. Men normally prefer wet shaves in the summer as its easier to get a good result when the air temperature is higher. When the skin is cold it goes tight and dries easier which can cause skin to flake after a wet shave. Before you start, wash your face with warm water and dab excess water off with a hot towel before applying a generous layer of shaving foam/gel.

If you do this you're much less likely to nick your skin. Pull the skin tight and go with the grain of the hair. It's a popular misconception that you should shave against the grain. This can give you in growing hair which is quite painful. Try to use as few strokes as possible to avoid over irritating the skin, rinsing the razor in warm water between each stroke. Once you're done, moisturise with a soothing lotion, preferably containing aloe, and avoid traditional alcohol based aftershaves as they can be stingy and dry out the skin.

Kube Studios: The Alkaline Diet Program

Kube Studios: The Alkaline Diet Program

Being in the modelling industry, we hear about all the trends and diets every day in Kube Studios. One that sounded interesting was the Alkaline Diet Program and how it might work for models. 

The diet involves eating mostly alkaline foods and aims to keep the body's pH level between 7.35 and 7.45. They suggest eating 80 percent alkaline foods and 20 percent acidic. It may sound easier than it is though!

Which foods are acidic? The majority of foods break down in our bodies into either acidic or alkaline bases. The most alkaline foods are fresh fruit, vegetables, roots, nuts, dates, figs, lemons.. and so forth. Pasta, wheat, dairy, alcohol and meat are unfortunately not and should be avoided according to the program. If you should go for the full diet, replace meat protein with other sources or you might find yourself weak and malnourished. 

The benefits of having an alkaline system are numerous and have been studied by many a Phd student. When done properly, and balanced, the diet can improve energy levels, memory, prevent headaches, bloating, heart disease, muscle pain and insomnia. Sounds good right!
