Baby Modelling Tips

Are you convinced your baby has modelling potential? Models Direct has a few tips to help you out!

 It can be a fun way to fill the first year and spend time with your new-born. While my heart burst at the seams when her pictures appeared in magazines and catalogs, what I wasn't expecting was how it developed her confidence and self-esteem. It also teaches babies about working with others.

To find a reputable baby and child model agency, search online, and ask mums whose children model about their experiences. Do your research and avoid makeover studios posing as modelling agencies. In order to get an agency to see the potential in your baby, get professional, simple shots taken. These should not be airbrushed or digitally manipulated.

No silly shots in sunglasses or eating ice cream. Clear facial head shots and full-length shots are best at showing if your baby has what it takes.
Agencies are always looking for new-borns because they have a short modelling span.

They are always on the lookout for the next fresh face. Six months is a popular age because by then babies are sociable and smiley, plus they're stronger and starting to sit. It is before they reach the terrible two’s!

One thing that's guaranteed is if you've spent three hours on a packed train getting to a job or casting, you'll arrive with a grumpy tired toddler. You need to sacrifice your time to take your baby to these modelling auditions, and they might not get the part. If you know a good local agency, use them.

Hi all,

Feedback for Facebook and Google Places (Feel Agency for Inspired Homes - £200):

I modelled for Inspired Homes for the day.  The location was a very beautiful house in North London, and the shoot involved six of us having various photos taken in different rooms of the home.

I wasn't nervous as this was my 4th modelling assignment with Talent Management, so I feel as though I'm getting a little more confident and comfortable after each job, and gaining more experience is helping me a lot.

Photos were taken of myself and a female model, acting as though we were a couple enjoying our new home.  This was new for me but I adapted fairly quickly. The other models and crew members were very friendly and easy to get along with, which helps towards being relaxed for the shoot.

I enjoy modelling a lot and the variety that comes with it, it is always a little different to what you've done before which makes it that much more exciting to do.

Joining Talent Management has been an enjoyable experience and one of the best decisions I have ever made. It is a great organisation and I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in modelling.

Models Direct Review: Become A Child Model

Models Direct

At Models Direct we pride ourselves on the service we offer. We are here to get you work and make your career happen. For more information, visit the Models Direct website. Here is a real review written by one of our new clients. 

You have probably covered this kind of story before but here goes. We are the parents of a 4 year old boy. We have always had lots of comments about how good looking he is and so decided to put him forward for modelling. We sent his picture to start up models who then rang us and raved about his look. Big ego boost to us but questions in our mind about how legit it was. Went for the photo shoot with them where he was a natural and they again raved about him. Then talked us into paying for a portfolio of 10 photos for £600 (rip off???!!!). We then sent these photos of to a number of agencies and at least 12 agencies got back to us offering to represent him, either for a hefty registration fee or after we had paid for more photos. As new parents to this industry you feel as though you are being conned at every turn and that people are playing on your role as doting parents. How do you know who to trust?
Look forward to hearing from you

Our son is registered with talent management who did charge a registration fee but who also offered services that the other agencies did not offer.
