Do I need pictures?: Let's be clear on one thing -
You do not need professional pictures to be evaluated by
an agency.
Any new face booker or agent should be able to let you know if they
want you based on amateur pictures.
Here are some tips to maximize your chances with pictures you organize:
1) Take both head and body shots.
2) Make sure the outline of the head takes up about 2/3rds of the
frame of the headshot image.
3) Use different expressions and camera angles.
4) Body shots are full length and emphasize the contours of the
body.
5) Do not show flabby sections of the body – this is not
good.
6) For submitting keep your DPI at 72 and pixel size approximately
400 high by 300 wide – or at whatever specifications the agency
you are applying to wants.
7) Take a lot of images (25 head, 25 body) and then pick the best
ones.
8) Women’s makeup should be light and natural looking. Remember
the more makeup the more it will detract from you being accepted
9) Have at least 3 different changes of clothes and hair style per
session
10) Make sure your subject is well lit, dark images are no good
11) Although sexy is OK, avoid extreme fashions/jewlery and/or playboy
poses
12) Tatoos are generally OK. If however you have one on your forehead
this will limit your bookings considerably, maybe even entirely!
