I'm planning a photoshoot with two (female) models soon. I'm pretty sure we all have the same idea about the kind of picture, but I tried to google some sample pictures, just to be sure. But I couldn't find anything.
I'm looking for pictures of a trashy/junky/grunge/post-apocalptic kind of mood. Fishnet shirts, torn clothes, drugs lying all around, dark make-up....
do any of you have any idea where I could find some pictures like that to show the models what I'm looking for?
thanks for your help |

Suicide Girls perhaps? Might be a good idea to search around for that sort of thing. |

I would personally set your sights higher than suicide girls. Their stuff pretty much sucks as a general rule.
When trying to describe a vision to models, you could use other reference material like movies or TV shows that they may have seen, or even adverts can sometimes work. I once had a shoot where I told a model I wanted the lighting to be like Aliens when Ripley is going back for newt so hard, strobey, uplighting. She got what I was saying :)
It seems you already have your idea fleshed out. Can't you sketch it out a bit on some paper? Even a birds eye view? Or don't be so literal and describe the concept, the story behind it instead of the immediate scene so the models know the angle you're coming from. |

That is true to be honest. From what i've seen it has been pretty bad but it's a start.

Excellent advice to look at Film, Tv and also Cd covers etc. I really don't have any experience in this area but a lot of my influences for the photography i like to do comes from film, and books. Really, apart from the technical stuff that a model shoot might entail the only thing you have to go with is your imagination. |

I remember seeing this on Deviant; it seems kind of like what you are describing.
