Modeling or Photo Shoots

[Kym Kilcrease]

THis might be in the wrong place and if it is I apologize in advance!

I have this Teenage Girl that is great. She is pretty, she can sing, and she loves to take Pictures!

How does she get started on a circuit to be ask to Model or do Photo Shoots?

Find a good mentor photographer - one who teaches modeling.
Have them take some good photos for her album.
Get a real agent or photographer that knows how to market such talent.

See my musecube link for more details ...

I second OTS. They are a "G" rated site, and very friendly & helpful folks on there.

all I can say is networking and portfolio building

OTS is g-rated and it covers a wide range of ages. A lot cleaner than MM and certainly not as many GWC or sleazes.

just a suggestion...don't let her go to ANY portfolio hosting site and post myspace photos taken of her and her best friend, or photos taken in her bathroom mirror etc. Do her a favor and take some good stuff she can use as a stepping stone. Nothing is more off putting than seeing a wannabe model say "I only want paid work" and then seeing her portfolio consists of self portraits taken in her dirty bathroom mirror.
