Whats involved with Fashion photographing fashion models?

The equipment used to photograph fashion models, isnt that different to portrait photography. Fashion photography equipment should include:---

1. A backdrop that needs to be placed behind the model. In the demonstration shown below, the photographer used a metalic sheet, however a simple material sheet would have also been sufficient.
2. A studio flash with a soft box is used in the example below for the main source of light. However, if your taking fashion shots at home, natural light coming through a side window will also work well.
3. A bounce is also needed to reflect light underneath the models eyes. This will stop any ugly shadows from appearing across the models face.
4. Your camera should be mounted either on a studio pole, or a tripod if your budget is limited.
