6 Shot Package Includes All Of These Portfolio Building Shots in One Session
Headshot
Your introduction to the industry. A captivating headshot conveys your unique personality and potential at first glance.
This is the top of your portfolio and what hooks the attention of casting directors, so we spend some time here to get it right. Makeup should be minimal and natural here.
Formal Look / Fashion
Showcase your elegance and ability to command attention in sophisticated roles. This shot should capture some energy and creativity. Its a good idea to incorporate some movement to showcase your energy and attitude.
Casual Wear (Full Length)
Casting directors want to see the real you. A casual full-length shot captures your natural charisma and style.
This shot lets agents see the model’s proportions and body type. Wardrobe should be simple and relatively form fitting / flattering.
Swimwear
Demonstrating the ability to handle diverse roles is essential. Remember paid models are selling the clothing they wear, so its important to be confident, but not sexual.
Male models should plan on boxer briefs or swim trunks, female models should bring a bikini or conservative lingerie (think more Macys and less Victoria’s Secret)
Commercial Shot
Highlight your dynamic range and ability to embody various emotions as would be required for a commercial advertisement. Think of a commercial shot as acting in print, and show some emotional range to select a favorite from after the session.
Profile (Side Shot)
Showcasing your distinct facial features from another angle adds depth to your portfolio. This shot often works well in black and white with directional lighting.
Catching the Eye of Casting Directors
In a sea of auditions and portfolios, your images need to stand out. Casting directors often have limited time to sift through submissions, making a visually captivating portfolio crucial. Our Model Startup Studio Essentials Kit ensures you present a well-rounded, attention-grabbing collection of images that leave a lasting impression.
