Here a few shots while I am preparing the models for a glamour shoot. Note that all these models are novices and this was their first attempt. I can assure you that it takes a bit of preparation.
I do this twice a year with about 15 novice models, just to get them exposed to this kind of work.
Make-up artist.
Last touches before the shoot.
Hairdresser.
Test poses.
Visagie

Waiting for the start of the shoot.

A photographer without a style, is like a pub without beer

Some of your pre-shoot work looks better than most of my actual shoot work! I'm jealous!
Hack....
Maybe it's time you learn how to do hair and makeup too!
Charles, surely somebody from Annapolis or Easton can do some less, uh, "traditional" hair and makeup for you!??!?! (Your gals always look great, so I'm guessing youv'e got it covered
Look at my avatar.....me do hair? hahahahahaha
Diva, I've been trying to get some of my older seniors who have gone to a beauty academy to come in and do some crazy things but it just isn't a go in this po dunk little town.

That can be nice as well, I live just like you in a small village with 892 habitants, the nearest provincial town is 10Miles away with 20.000 habitants.
I do all my work on the farm (restored), the old barn is the studio. If you visit all the beauty and make-up schools and offer the ladies a free glamour shot , you will get a lot of attendees.
Make-up artists and hairdressers, that is easy to. Just visit those evening classes (schools) and ask them if they want to work with you on a shoot. I always take my large print pictures with me so they can see it. Many are then willing to attend.
It just works, be inventive , talk and ask and you will receive. The first time might be difficult, but after that it comes natural.
What does it cost ? Basically nothing, except your time and a free print of 15 (A-4 seized) pictures for each attendee (model) (15 models* 15 pictures*60cent=135 $).
And guess what ? Many come back afterwards.
TXS, although I do not agree with you. For what I have seen so far. Your pictures are great. I guess we all have our own style .
