There is a vast range of modelling opportunities out there for child models and rather than adult models agencies they are not interested about the height or size of the model. If anything they are looking for personality, a nice smile, most of the time someone who look innocent and adorable in order to sell products. Child models can be selected for anything from TV advertising as well as ad campaigns, posters, modelling clothing lines and or to even be a poster child for an organisation.

The first thing you need to find out is whether your child enjoys modelling and see if they have the patience and confidence in front of the camera.

A photo shoot is the perfect way to start to establish this, as there is no point going to an agency unless you know that modeling is something that both you and your child are serious about.

When applying to agencies they will require up to date images of your child to see how photogenic they are in front of the camera. Your child will need to look age appropriate, so do not make your child look older than they are and make sure they show character and a lot of personality.
