How Do You Become A Kid Model?
You walk down the street. Maybe just about everyone stops to admire your beautiful baby. Parents and nannies point out your toddler as picture-perfect modeling material. Perhaps your kindergartner is so photogenic, even the school photographer raves about her love affair with the camera. What’s a parent to do? Consider getting the child into modeling, of course. Step 1 Assess your child’s personality. You read that right. Good cheekbones are great, but a happy, content child with patience and stamina offers photographers and producers the kind of cooperation that earns callbacks and repeated assignments. Step 2 Ask a professional photographer to take a series of photographs of your child in a variety of clothing and poses. Include tight head shots, full-body images in play clothing and shots in formal duds. Make certain the photographer has done model composite work in the past so he understands the importance of focusing on a child’s face. Step 3 Lay out and print a model’s composite.
