My measurements are 35/27/36.5 I'm fit and pretty www.katelyndawn.com/epk.html (you can see pictures) do i have a shot at modeling? I dont have a 24 inch waist and never will as my bones dont physically go that small lol. I have always wanted to model but my parents never let me and now that I can call my own shots I really want to get into it. What would you suggest I do?  Hi, Katelyn89! Based on you pictures, you definitely have a marketable look for modeling and should give it a shot! Based on your stats/info, your measurements and weight don't make you eligible for high fashion/runway/editorial modeling according to agency standards but commercial/print is definitely open to you. Many clients use fashion height models for commercial/print work in addition to the traditional 5'5" to 5'7" models. However, I would sti...

Category: Escorts & Safety For: Male & Female Models Want to bring an escort with you to a shoot but have a photographer/client who doesn't want one present on-set? Opt for the alternative of still bringing your escort but leaving him/her outside during the shoot. Explain to your escort how long the shoot should take and leave him/her free to go to the store, stay in the car or do some other activity to keep themselves occupied. But make sure they are still within the area nearby. When you go in to your shoot, let the photographer/client know that your escort is there but will wait for you outside until you're done. This is a great compromise that keeps your escort from being a distraction but still ensures your safety since they will be close by in case something happens.

Except... i'm 5'2" :( do I have no chance of being a model? please answer honestly! thanks for reading this x  Hi, Alexandra! Thank you for asking for a honest answer, which I will give you. At your current height you unfortunately do not have a chance at becoming a high fashion, runway or editorial model. You're also short of the minimum height for commercial/print modeling. HOWEVER, there are a few options available to you that you can check out if you're interested: Teen Modeling: You should visit the official websites of modeling agencies in your city/state that have a teen modeling division. You're the ideal age and in many cases, there aren't strict height requirements for this type of modeling. Parts Modeling: Many models of petite height do parts modeling work (jewelry, ...

Yesterday I went to an open call for an agency I've been wanting to get signed to for a long time, and they gave me a form to fill out (a scouted models snap request form if that makes a difference). The form asks for piuctures of my measurements and certain positions with no makeup (like front, shoulders up, hair up, etc.)It also asked me to take pictures wearing whatever I like that show my personality. I'm not exactly sure what this means- how literal do they want me to be? Thanks so much!  Hi, Anonymous! Congrats on this first step in being considered by an agency! If they do not provide any photo references, you should follow their instructions to a tee as far as the types of shots they want. Remember to have someone else take your snapshots for you--no camera phone or mirror photos! As to what you should wear, since they encourage you to wear whatever you want, that means you don't have to necessarily wear the "model's...

Am I too short, or do I weigh too much?  Hi, Anonymous! Your height and weight are ideal for fashion/runway/editorial modeling. You're definitely not too short, since 5'8" is the minimum for agencies. So far you've got what it takes in terms of the sizes and measurements. As long as you've got a great, marketable "look" to go with it, chances are an agency would definitely be interested!
