What does an Industry professional want to see in a Model´s Portfolio?

Part Two:


What Industry Professionals are looking for!

A pleasant personality evident from the model´s words as well as her photos.

Between three and twelve photos maximum. No one will bother wading through more than that to get to other relevant information.

The three essential shots are :   
One good clear face shot with minimum makeup, and a pleasant, not outstanding , expression.

                    
One good clear three quarter or full length photo of your figure in either swimsuit, or figure hugging tights and top.
                      
One good clear photo of you wearing fashionable, relaltively conservative clothing: like the perennial little black dress, Tshirt and jeans or similar.

The rest of the twelve pictures are made of a variety of different styles of clothing, casual, formal, etc.

If you have actually done some professional work* they want evidence of this, such as photos from the shoot, or tearsheets from the finished work ( eg a scan from a magazine page or advert)

*professional work can be either commissioned or spec work, tfp or paid, done with a professional photographer with the aim of being published...it does not include amateur camera club shoots, ¨workshops¨, theme nights, or amateur ¨glamour¨ shoots
