Should my child start modeling?

Many parents are interested in getting their child started as a model.  Modeling for kids is big business.  Kids clothing lines are sprouting up everywhere and they always need kids to model.  As well children grow quickly, so that means talent agents and child modeling agents will need to replace all of these child models.  Talent agents and child modeling agencies are always scouting for new faces.

What are some of the requirements to get my kid started in modeling?

Modeling Kids 
Child Modeling
 Child Modeling requires kids that are comfortable with others and kids that like to be photographed.

Kids and Modeling

Kids who model must also feel comfortable around other adults.  Often there will be numerous adults on the shoot who are working the lights, wardrobe, make-up etc.
Teenage Models
Teenage Modeling
 Kids and teenagers who are successful at modeling often have strong features.  Exotic looks, beautiful smiles, stunning eyes or a mop of curly red hair are all great looks for modeling.  If your child has a look that stops others dead in their tracks, they enjoy being photographed and are comfortable meeting people, they would probably be a good candidate as a child model.

Kids Headshots Samples

Here's a couple of kids headshot samples from recent sessions.  One of these kids got an agent with their new headshots and one is working actor who just needed to update their headshots.  Both of the kids headshots posted are a good example of different looks. With kids and teen headshots I normally shoot different looks.

This kids headshot shows personality.  A kid's headshots should communicate strong energy, personality and be a good representation of the actor.  This young actor  secured talent representation and then booked a Verizon commercial shortly after getting these headshots.
