Contact your photog. You should have a theme or 2 decided on prior to the shoot.
As a photog, whatever you do, dont take your whole closet. Take specific pieces to use with specific looks. HAve everything planned before you get there, so your not wasting a lot of time. Yours, or your photogs. Use different looks for each clothng change.
How many changes are you doing?? Bring that number of outfits, pre-planned, ironed, ready to use.
If you want to bring something extra, bring understated accesories, ie., necklaces, light wrap, various ear rings, belts, handbags, etc.... Do some layering, use movement in your photos, remove a sweater or jacket, and use it as a prop to sling over your shoulder,etc....
Things like books, pillows, nice stuffed animals, etc... can be easy props to change or add to a look.
Have fun.

I went for a photoshoot and they suggested I bring lots of clothes in a big bag. Along with lots of different shoes and accessories. You cant go wrong with plain denim jeans and a simple white top. I've seen that in lots of shoots. And i could choose whether or not to use shoes. You didnt say what type of shoot this was , but hopefully I've helped anyway =]
Good luck , They are really fun! =]

Well, it depends on what sort of shoot it is, and what the purpose is. If the idea is to make you look good, then wear stuff you look good in and feel comfortable in. If the idea is for the photographer to add some pictures to his portfolio, then what you wear will mainly be up to the photographer. I suggest you ask the photographer, or, if the photo shoot has to do with your work, your boss.
As another answerer said, getting some nice undies wouldn't be a bad idea (going along with my "feeling comfy = looking good" thought), but honestly, I think that if it were going to be a nudie, lingerie, or swimwear shoot, you'd already know about it.

get some nice underwear too. There is a real need for rockabilly type models right now. There's seems to be a rivival so go out and get some 50's style clothes if you can and remember, a small investment now might pay dividends in the future.

The type of model you want to be, that's what you should wear for your photos...fashion, casual sports, bikini, lingerie. Take a lot of outfites so you can pick and choose. I've had models show up with one or two outfits and ask for amazing pics with variety.
Since it's TFP get it in writing you get a copy of all the pics and take an escort with you. Never ever go to a shoot alone.

Wear something you're comfortable in, and don't do lots of make-up before you go - they'll probably have something for you to wear and make-up to go with it.
