Modeling Pics Biography
Your model portfolio book will be made up of a book with anywhere between 8 and 24 photos normally consisting of 9x12 or 8x10 prints. You will want a good selection of different types of "looks" in your portfolio. For example; have some photos created indoors in a home setting, some in the studio, some outdoors in different locations.
Also include shots which may be considered commercial, high fashion, casual, artistic and editorial lifestyle content. Ask the photographer to help you with choosing looks that best fit your personality and the type modeling you wish to pursue.
You'll also want to include two good head shots ( one straight on and one profile without makeup) and a good body shot (swim wear or tight-fitting clothing) especially if you plan to apply to the larger model markets. These larger markets such as the top NY agencies like to see exactly what they are getting when they view your photos. They don't want to see fancy posing or clutter, just you so keep this in mind when creating model photos for them to view.
Do not think that "more is better". It's much more effective to have 8 absolutely beautiful, perfectly shot photos in your portfolio than 100 mediocre ones.
How to Create a Modeling Portfolio
Now, let's get started in developing your model portfolio. A really good, complete model portfolio is not created overnight. You will develop it as you develop your talent by working with different photographers.
Different photographers? Won't this cost me a fortune?
An awesome model portfolio won't cost you a fortune if you follow the simple steps below. Your model portfolio will not be free, mind you, but way less expensive than paying several different photographers to shoot each section.
1. The Paid Photo Shoot
If you are working on a tight budget, this may be a little painful to you but worth it if you are trying to build a killer portfolio. Don't sacrifice quality for quantity or price. Find a photographer who can help with your posing and who is well experienced in the field of modeling photographs.
Finding a Portfolio Photographer
Although your local portrait photographer may be terrific in doing family portraits or weddings, he/she may not know all the ins and outs of creating a model portfolio. You may want to check to see if they offer this service but I would check places like One Model Place or Model Mayhem for photographers who are well experienced in portfolio work
You should be able to hire a really good photographer for anywhere between $300. to $1,000. with the latter being the extreme in a high-end market area. I would think the average would be around $600
When choosing your photographer, don't just base your decision on price. If the photographer can't produce those perfect images for your portfolio, it doesn't matter what it costs!
Below are some questions to ask your photographer before agreeing to hire him/her for the job of creating your model portfolio.
