How to Create A Baby Model Portfolio

Every parent thinks that their child is the most adorable kid in the world. This might very well be, but it takes more than just a cute face to become a baby model. Baby models need to be able to withstand hours of waiting, unfamiliar places and lots of new people around them. Baby models are lively, easy to work with, cute and can determine the direction of a photograph with an exuberant personality. A portfolio should capture a baby's ability to sit through long photo sessions, comfort in any setting and outfit and, most of all, look cute while doing it.

Things You'll Need

  • Portfolio book
  • Photographs

Instructions

    • 1

      Include several close-up shots of your baby that show the details of the face, like the eyes and expressions. Use two or three close-up shots with different expressions.

    • 2

      Include full length shots that show off all of the baby.

    • 3

      Include photographs that show the baby's personality. Shots of the baby laughing, playing with a toy or running and playing outside can all capture a bit of the baby's personality.

    • 4

      Include pictures with different outfits and in different locations. Photos with both winter and summer clothing, outside and in different inside environments can show that the baby is suitable to work in all conditions.

    • 5

      Include a photograph of the baby in an unfamiliar situation like on a set with oversized items or in a peculiar location. Out-of-the-ordinary photographs demonstrate that your baby can feel comfortable on set and adapt to unusual situations long enough to get a good shot.

    • 6

      Include the most up-to-date shots of your baby. Photographs should be no more than a month old since children change and grow so quickly. Any change in hair or size should be reflected in the portfolio.

    • 7

      Include photographs of all of the baby's professional modeling work.
