Omg!! I was literally asking this! I’m a newly signed petite model and I’m doing collaboration with photographers but I literally didn’t know where to begin in terms of assembling the photos in my book
Hi, this is my very first time here to join in the modelling industry here in the philippines. My question here is; What do you think, while you are walking on the runway? So you might not fall or stiff? I got into my go-see lately and it was epic fail 😅. What should you advice us to people like me are nervous? Thanks!
Oh My God! Thank You THANK YOU YOU have Know Idea How Much This Has Helped And Cleared A lot Of Questions Of Mines. You Are Amazing And Helpful. I’m Even More Confident And Excited To Start Modeling This School Year In December. (is There Anyway You Could Be My Mentor?)
Royalty J. Hi Royalty, glad this video helped you. Sure, I’ll be setting up a mentorship program soon. Stay tuned on my youtube channel or signup for my newsletter on francispolo.com to get alerted when it’s ready
I am a teen (female) model, my height is 5'3 and I think that might be one of the main reasons I'm having trouble getting signed. any advice? love your vids, you're the best!
You're probably going to agencies that specialize in high fashion. You have to be at least 5'9 for high fashion. Try going to commercial print and lifestyle modeling agencies
I’m signing up for modeling agencies but I’m not sure if I should have a portfolio already put together before I apply for wait til after I get into a agency
Hi I am 13 years old girl and my dream is to become a model.I want to say a big thank you to you because your videos are really helping me to make my dream come true.😉
Hello I’m kind of new to modeling and I get modeling agencies contacting me every month I recently transferred from one agency to a another and I’m kinda skeptical about if they’re legit and if I’m gonna get somewhere I don’t want to waste my time and money, if you have any tips or anything I’d highly appreciate that!!
I'm 5'8 and I can wear alot of different things I'm not in the best shape but I'm working on that now my point is I really like fashion and I just discovered modeling well interested but I'm lost....
i want to start a career in modelling but i do not know how to pose. Will the photographer also give instructions as in how to pose while making portfolio. Coz i am planning to get a portfolio but i do not want to waste shit tonne of my hardwork money if the photographer doesnt tell me how to pose?
I live in Texas but I want to go to casting calls in New York once winter comes around, do you have to live in the same state as the agency to get signed? I want to start a serious modeling career (runway) I’m just not sure because there aren’t any big/well known agencies near me and New York, Chicago and LA seem to be the only places but I don’t live anywhere near them.
I suggest downloading thumbtack they have great photographers on there I got my pictures for my portfolio and found my photographer there and she did amazing for a good price too 😊
My grandmother has a good camera to make pictures and she took photography lessons, The question I am wondering is, is she considered like a professional photographer ?
Hi, I just shared your photo on my instagram page but I'm not sure I did it in a way it will be recognized for your photo contest. I just signed with your agency EMG. I hope you see I've entered. Many thanks. You do the best videos.
Hey Pepper you are such a inspiration and I learn so much from your videos from poses to tips and etc.. keep up the great work man for sure got a bright future ahead of you. And I hope one day to meet you that would be an honor
Thanks man. I just recently watched a video by you on how to walk on a runway. You were with someone somewhat shorter than yourself and I was trying to gauge the discrepancy in height (hence my question). Anyway, love from the U.K.
Hello I’m 16 years old and I have a very exotic asian look. I’m getting into modeling and trying to develop myself into a good model. I want to model all over the world but my height restricts me. I’m 5’7.5 and most big agencies require 5’9 min height. I want to do high fashion print and runway. I have an mother agency that I went to IMTA with this past summer. I got 1 callback from a talent agency. Why do you think the bigger agencies didn’t notice me even though I have an exotic asian look. Is it because I’m to short? How can I walk runways around the world when I’m 5’7.5? Is it possible? It’s my dream.
Yes, it is likely because of your height. If you photograph taller then some agencies might over look it. You should try other categories to get your feet wet. The height requirements for high fashion is 5'9, but other types of modeling don't have the same restrictions
I am 5'6, just starting my petite modelling in New York How many photos should I prepare in my portfolio before submitting to an agency? What types of agency fit petite models? Commercial Print?
Can you give some insight to what order these photos should go in? I know you said head shot, 3/4, full body, commercial, high fashion and fitness. Online sometimes it's hard to control what order the app or folder places them in but as far as the physical portfolio book I was wondering what order. Also do you know of any links or websites to purchase a professional portfolio book? Mine is not the nicest anymore and has some scratches and I'm just afraid it's not a professional look.
i've been printing out my photos my for a physical book and my pic are all 8x10 do u think it looks unprofessional to have those white border lines like u showed an example of in your old profolio??
Good evening my daughter went for a photo shoot today she had to pay $50 to get into they said they loved her pictures Said she had an exotic look to her but The downfall was that she had to pay $4000 for her portfolio they set up a professional Instagram business account for her and all that which I don't have a problem with but I don't know is it possible for her to do it on her own or is it just better and then how does the contract go and you know all the others things set aside I don't know anything I'm the mom and I would jus not like to know if anybody had any info on how to start her into the modeling career is it easier just to do it with it to an Asian and pay the $4000 or is it possible to do it without an agent
Champ1988 great question. Personally I’m usually clean shaved so I don’t have any bearded pics in my portfolio. But you don’t need a separate book, you can just do a couple of looks with a beard
Fresh Pepper good to know, I’m currently filling out a form for a local agency, on the website it asks to add 3 pictures for a portfolio. Does that mean I’m all set?
Great Tips bro!
ISoLoveLondon thanks bro 👊🏾
Omg!! I was literally asking this! I’m a newly signed petite model and I’m doing collaboration with photographers but I literally didn’t know where to begin in terms of assembling the photos in my book

You're probably going to agencies that specialize in high fashion. You have to be at least 5'9 for high fashion. Try going to commercial print and lifestyle modeling agencies
I have my first interview with a modeling agency in a week and i’m super nervous also clueless on what to bring.
You should be fine, just bring your smile and your confidence :)
I’m signing up for modeling agencies but I’m not sure if I should have a portfolio already put together before I apply for wait til after I get into a agency
i am 12 and i wanna make a model book but i have to take the photos myself?
Check out @picsbykristyn on instagram shes a photographer located in new york and collabs often

Even for virtual portfolios should I only select the two best photos for each photo category?
Great tips bro.....I want also work with you ...please suggest me what should I do to work with you...I live in India ,Shimla

Great Tips!!! 👌🏾
Sir, how models pictures get dark, like ur this video profile
i want to start a career in modelling but i do not know how to pose. Will the photographer also give instructions as in how to pose while making portfolio. Coz i am planning to get a portfolio but i do not want to waste shit tonne of my hardwork money if the photographer doesnt tell me how to pose?
Some photographers will guide you through the poses. Ask your photographer about this before you agree to shoot
Are you still doing model consultations? I also wanted to write that I love your videos; always helpful!
I live in Texas but I want to go to casting calls in New York once winter comes around, do you have to live in the same state as the agency to get signed? I want to start a serious modeling career (runway) I’m just not sure because there aren’t any big/well known agencies near me and New York, Chicago and LA seem to be the only places but I don’t live anywhere near them.
You don't have to live in the same state, but agencies will be hesitant to represent you if you don't live close by.
So...what does an aspiring model include/exclude in the IG bio specifically?
Include your height, and location
...just that? No need to indicate that you are an aspiring model or something?
Thanks anyway
Please is there hope for a 5'1 aspiring model?
DAMN YOU KNOW HE IS A MODEL!
I am from india, i want to do mording in new york how can i apply through online

Hey, FP. Do you have any videos about your measurements, body fat percentage etc?

Get rid of the white borders if you can. It’s more professional
Also i’m petite
Thank you so much! *a subscriber forever*

Beard looking slique man
Are you living in England
wow this is the most helpful video i came across for pursing my modeling career. thank you so much
So what do agencies more so respect, physical portfolios or iPad?
Good evening my daughter went for a photo shoot today she had to pay $50 to get into they said they loved her pictures Said she had an exotic look to her but The downfall was that she had to pay $4000 for her portfolio they set up a professional Instagram business account for her and all that which I don't have a problem with but I don't know is it possible for her to do it on her own or is it just better and then how does the contract go and you know all the others things set aside I don't know anything I'm the mom and I would jus not like to know if anybody had any info on how to start her into the modeling career is it easier just to do it with it to an Asian and pay the $4000 or is it possible to do it without an agent
What are some things to look for when verifying a good high fashion photographer?
I will love to follow you
Even though I'm late to the party I'm glad I stopped by. This content is hella helpful. ✌🏻
Are pictures on the portfolio required all of them are black and white?
how to stay?
Hello FP, what is the best country to start modeling career France or USA? Have you ever gotten any experience in France?
I believe the US is better. I don’t have any in France, but I know some models who moved from France to the US for modeling
@@FreshPepper Thanks!)
Hi I m 53 I want to be a model, how could I do I mean where should I start? Thank you
Life changer thank you love ❤️😘💕✌🏾
Can we have suggestions or diet plan to build perfect body please ....
My idol🔥👑📷
Where did you get or can get your profotilo book
So, I should make a portfolio before going to agencies or anything? I am probably going to start soon and just wondering.
whats the name of the app that you use on youre ipad? my agency wants me to use an ipad and idk what apps to use
Foliobook
Thanks for breaking it down
You got it
should you pay a photographer in full? and do they usually take weeks to edit images?
What if you don’t got the money for a professional photographer
I feel like if it wasn’t for my body
I would definitely do it
Where do I find this book portfolio?
Such an amazing video bro..BTW do you get paid by the agency for each photo shoots.
Hello do you have tips for plus size modeling please? And the new book app is only on app store 😞
IMG models says to take it on ur phone-
Is newbook free or paid?
its free
great tips
Shayna Wheatley 😘
Takeaways: model mayhem, f stop, new book
Please on the ipad, how do I operate it or put them on
Collins Richard use an app called Foliobook
Thanks for the videos. All your videos. Really appreciate
Do you keep an alternate for the bearded look?
Champ1988 great question. Personally I’m usually clean shaved so I don’t have any bearded pics in my portfolio. But you don’t need a separate book, you can just do a couple of looks with a beard
Lookin for an agency.
Will be using the Google Drive link tip!
Do you have to be physically fit to be accepted?
Not necessarily
But it helps
Fresh Pepper good to know, I’m currently filling out a form for a local agency, on the website it asks to add 3 pictures for a portfolio. Does that mean I’m all set?
Thanks for sharing
Is it compulsory to have a portfolio book?
Starting out with building a portfolio. Do you think it’s best to remove all facial hair, instead of having it?
Yes, clean shave is best unless you have an amazing beard
I have required this i have been told its free to do 🙂
So do I need a portfolio before I get signed with an agency?
How many photos do you approximately need in a portfolio?
Is it a good idea to shoot all these looks even if you just want to focus on a specific area?
Thanks ♥♥♥
Amen to this
great video man
Thank you for this information! Am thinking of creating a modeling portfolio and had no idea where to start!
