I'm always trying to take new snap shots constantly! I took these snaps like 2 days ago and I already want to take some new ones. I usually like taking my snap shots with film. (Most agencies wouldn't want you to take snaps with film, poloriod or professional cameras. So, just take them with your digital cam.) But, this time I just did it with my little baby, I phone 4.
Snap Shots are extremely important when sending to agencies. You would think that your portfolio,comp card and "your look" would be more important, but nope! It's the snap shots. If you don't know what snap shots are, they look similar to what I showed you up above. They need to be simple, clean and natural. You can wear a simple top, with skinny jeans or shorts and make sure you wear those heels girl! Agencies also require some with your swimming suit on.
You will need a head shot, half shot, full body shot and profile shot (side body shot). Try to change it up, when I say that I mean do some smiling and do some shots with your hair up/hair down. Also, make sure your wearing no make up at all or light make up. You can wear foundation & mascara, other then that , no more! One more thing, take your snaps on a plain white wall if you can or outside w/ no distractions around you. The whole point of snap shots is to see the real you!
* Please remember that being a model is not all about the glamour. It's more about your natural beauty, your personality and your confidence. So, keep taking those snap shots and send them to agencies! Good luck!
