REVIEW OF YOUR PHOTOS:

Your photos are wonderful emily! I don’t often get to say these words.. You have a tremendous amount of potential. You look comfortable, you are sexy and the modeling world is going to love you… Be careful when selecting body shots to not cut off the bottom of your legs.. Body shots should go all the way down to the feet vs cut off below the knees.

ADVICE ON YOUR CAREER:

It is time for you to go and visit the best agencies in NY…. You have no time to waste! At the age of 21, you need to go for it “right now”…. There is no time to waste. The modeling industry are turning at stars at a very early age.. There are always exceptions but they are far and few between.. Being 5”10, you are the perfect height to do great things in NY in the world of high fashion….. I suggest IMG, DNA, One, Next or Marilyns as the right agency’s for you… I will personally make these introductions for you…. I will also suggest you seriously consider going to Paris to build up your book.. I have some agencies that I will also recommend for you in Paris, Milan and London. Keep the weight down because sometimes you show a bit of fullness if your cheeks! One of my reps will reach out to you to set up a time for you and I to discuss making introductions to the top agencies for you.

ADVICE FOR YOUR COMPOSITE:

See below.. I have laid out what I feel is the best presentation for your composite. We will start with a very natural beauty shot of you so the agencies and clients can see exactly what you look like without too much makeup… I have added a great smiling shot and body shot… I think it looks great!

BACK OF COMPOSITE

Model: Tracy

YOUR HIGH FASHION PHOTOS:

I think you need to redo your photos with a much better photographer.. You look posed in all your photos. The style of clothes you are wearing are also not working. You are a swimsuit model and should stay away from the high fashion photos

YOUR BEAUTY PHOTOS:

Terrible… I think you have way too much make up on and the photographer is just not working with your particular look… The makeup artist went crazy and thought about themselves vs. what you needed… They were trying to be artistic vs. giving you what you need.

YOUR BODY PHOTOS:

You have a fantastic body but the photos are not right. Take a look at the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue or a Victoria secrets catalog to get inspiration.

YOUR NATURAL PHOTOS:

You don’t have any. All of your photos have tons of makeup… Agencies want to see “exactly” what you look like. With so much makeup in all your photos, they will have to guess what you really look like. Lighten it up!

REVIEW OF YOUR PHOTOS:

YAs stated earlier, I think you really need to re-do your photos with a “real” photographer. If you want a modeling career then it is about how you photograph. Make the investment or find another profession. Find a great photographer and get great photos. Your photos become your resume. You will not get a good agency to rep you or a client to book you without a great portfolio. Just like you wont get a great job in the working world with a second rate resume. You have a great body. Focus on swimwear. Focus on your strengths and stay away from what some would consider a weakness. There are some great agencies that specialize in swimsuits and lingerie, those are the agencies that you should be presenting your photos to but not until you get the “right” photos. In the essential models kit that you will be sent, there is a list of photographers that we recommend.

ADVICE ON YOUR CAREER:

Get good photos before doing anything else! Or go back to college… If you are going to take a shot at this hard competitive business, then you need to put your best foot forward…. If you don’t get great photos one day, I think you are in for a lot of disappointment. There are many good photographers out there, find one and get GREAT photos that make you look incredible! You are 23 years old and you don’t have a lot of time left to see if you can really make money as a model… GO GET GOOD PHOTOS AND THEN SEND THE PHOTOS TO THE TOP SWIMSUIT AGENCIES!

ADVICE FOR YOUR COMPOSITE:

I don’t have any advice for your composite due to the fact that I don’t think you have any good photos to put on a comp card. Once you do have the right photos, keep the composite focused on body shots… that is your great asset!
