Babies & young children change quickly and agencies want new photographs every 3 to 6 months. My goal is to get you affordable, professional portraits that you will always be proud of!
MODELING ADVICE (Disclaimer: this is NOT legal advice. It is merely opinion based on my education and experience. Consult a professional attorney for help in understanding your own situation.)
Just starting out? Ask yourself this important question first….”Why?”
Why do you want your child to be a model? Is it for money, fame, recognition, parental pride,or just for fun?
Unless your answer is "for fun" -- then be warned, you probably will NOT have fun doing it.
When you are a model -- you are running your own small business. IF you get signed by an AGENCY -- you have to remember that they are your EMPLOYEE (they work for you -- you don't work for them).
This means that every decision about your child’s modeling career lies solely on you. While you can take advice and ask for recommendations -- you don't have to follow that advice, and often times it's best to follow your gut rather than someone else's second-hand guess.
NOTE: You should NOT pay for anything except transportation, food, and photographs. NO legitimate agency will ask for money or schooling upfront!
(Upon request, when you have a modeling portfolio shoot done, I will provide you a list of AFTRA & SAG Agents in the area.)
