I've done some modelling, not alot, mainly things for small companies and a few fetish / erotic shoots. All the advice I have for you is double and triple read your contract, never ever just take your agents word for it, find out what the shots will be used for (I've had friends taken for a ride over things like this, my friend Paris for example did not think her shots for a fetish clothing company would end up on a porn site).
Perhaps most importantly for during the actual shoot BE NICE TO THE PHOTOGRAPHER & CREW these guys are pros, they have done shoots before they know what will make you look good. Making a good impression on them can score you a little extra time to get the lighting just right or mean the makeup artist will bother to smooth out that flyaway hair. Don't get me wrong those things can often be fixed in photo editing no problem but the less photo editing your shots have to undergo the better, atleast that's how I view it.
