What do you do about outfit/costume changes on location... I would like some simple solutions (buying a changing booth won't work as the shoot is next week some time and I would rather have light stands ETC than a changing booth....)
I guess it would technically be feasible to go back and fourth to home or somewhere to change buttt I rather not have to?
Also- what do you feel about changing up the shoot feel/style (IE beauty glamour into grunge or pin-up) these are all style's we're wanting to work on (and then some) but I am not sure if it's a good idea to change the style up so much??
Any experience with this idea?? any comments would be greatly appreciated!

I always take along a female assistant and a 3 x 5 reflector. I use the reflector as a reflector and when it is changing time my assistant holds the reflector up in front of the client and she changes behind it. I usually have them back into a corner so no one can see around the sides. I also drive a van which has dark tinted windows. I tell her to stand outside a few feet from the windows and ask her if she can see inside. When she says no, I tell her she can change cllthing without fear of being exposed.

How about a backdrop rod and a shower curtain, attached to a couple of light stands?

Or something like this:

For thirty bucks, you almost can't go wrong.

I have a pavilion tent for stuff like this. 8-sided, about 10 feet in diameter and about 8.5 feet tall. Pretty simple and works really well.

Then again. Half the time, the models I have shot, don't care. If we are in a fairly private place they just change.
It may just be the general mentality of Scandinavia. We aren't really bothered by stuff like that.
