Tips
There are two main ways to model-- through an agency or
freelancing.
A great way to find legit modeling agencies is to go on
[Link]/agencies! There is an agency section where they will
show you credible agencies and you can filter this by cities! Agencies
should get back to you in 2 weeks max! If you don't hear from them,
don't get discouraged! Many models hear a thousand no's before
yes! You can apply again in 3-6 months.
Whether you're waiting to hear back from agencies or being a
freelance model, be sure to collaborate with photographers and
work on your portfolio! This will help you practice your poses and get
more comfortable in front of the camera as well! Model and
photography groups on Facebook are a great way to find
photographers that will collaborate with you for free, instagram as
well! Post your photos online so others can find you and gain
exposure. This is a great tool for freelancing! You can book jobs
through brands, photographers, and casting agents finding you
through instagram. Follow casting agents on social media and get on
casting sites to get booked through freelancing!
