Model Portfolio - your 'book'
|
Your portfolio should be what you want it to be A few family snaps can be shown around some local agencies to see if you can get a positive reaction If you have better pictures it pays to present them properly A nice binder and all the pictures the same way up A few good shots not everything taken at your last party NO fuzzy shots, no pictures with other people - leave out anything which is not excellent Loose leaf allows you to move them around when you get comments about a particulat shot Put a good picture in first and last If you want to construct a good book you need images with variety and not looking as though they were all taken by one person in the same session Ideally as a minimum, you need face front, both sides, full length, and something animated Your book should show fashion, sporty, casual If you have long hair which can be up or down - show it both ways If you had anything published or professionally used add a page with the 'tearsheet' (copy of the actual published page) Be prepared to leave the agent or studio photographer your contact details, best done using a comp card if you want to afford them |
