STEEL VEILSSt. Louis, MO



Services : Model Information

We’re always interested in shooting fresh faces (and bodies!) and we don’t require experience. All we need from you is a desire to be in front of the camera, a great attitude (a great wardrobe also helps), and an ability to have a good time. If you’re not having fun, what’s the point?


If you're interested, you should be at least 18 and able to send us a recent photo of yourself. You will be required sign a model release. We have our release available which explains everything in plain English, as well as the real deal that you can download.


You can bring friends to the shoot, either male or female, as long as they don't get in the way. For space considerations, we request that you bring no more than two people. We can do a shoot with your friends if you'd like, but everyone will have to be of age and be able to prove it (we will photograph your driver’s license and keep it in your file). Anyone who is going to be in the pictures will need to sign a model release.


We can set up the shoot at our studio, or at a location. The choice is up to you and depends mostly on the end goal.


We’re pretty flexible and understanding of beginners. Just let us know what you need and we’ll do our best to oblige.


On the day of your shoot, please do not wear anything tight fitting. Please bring the clothes, makeup, jewelry, shoes, and whatever props you’d like (that we have all agreed upon), with you. We may provide a stylist either at our discretion or upon a specific request.


If you’re looking to build your portfolio, all of the above still applies, but you’ll need to let us know which elements you’re missing. Or, if you’re starting from scratch, let us know! We are happy to give ya some helpful hints and advice.


If you want to model for some of Michelle’s photo montages, the above still applies, but you must be aware that the outcome and shooting situations are completely different. For photography, we focus on bringing out the beautiful. For Michelle’s photo montages, she focuses on well, whatever macabre thing happens to be in her head at the time. For these shots, it is helpful if you’re able to do some acting.


That’s pretty much it. If you have any questions, please . Continue on to look over our model release.


The creation of original art begins with a learned eye and a quality process. When stepping in front of Michelle X's lens, you become another piece in the equation, easily fitting in with her professionalism and drive. I personally had never been in front of a camera before, and after a bit of coaxing, Michelle's gentle encouragement evoked my own enthusiasm about the project, resulting in some wonderful pieces. I hope to see Michelle continue with Steel Veils for years to come. -Jenn G.
