In the age range of newborn to five years of age, you the parent will be taking your own pictures of your children. Some parents will want to go out and have them taken professionally but it is not recommended or necessary, either is a composite card or head shot due to the out of pocket expense and the fact that at this age your child is rapidly changing.
However, if your child begins to get booked for allot of jobs then getting them head shots to send out is not a bad idea!
Cards have to be updated every six months for an adult, so imagine at this age it could end up being every other month and it’s just not worth it. A 5×7 color photo of your child with their name, date of birth and your contact info on the back is all you need to submit to an agent.
Depending on the agency and the direction that you are leaning towards you may also want to supply the agent with a black and white photo as well.
One to three photos is all you need for a first time submission to an agent. If you are mailing out your photos to different agencies send an introduction letter with all of your contact information along with the photos and a self addressed envelope.
If you do not receive a phone call or e-mail within seven business days from the time you mailed out then you can place a call or send an email to them to find out if the agency is interested in representing your child.
Also, it should NEVER, NEVER cost you anything to be represented by an agent and if they are asking for monies then it is time for you to get up and walk out of the appointment or open call you are attending.
The agent gets paid when your child books a job and the pay rate for them is between 15-20%.
Model searches that book hotel rooms and then call yo
u back the next day to tell you your child has been picked and you need to put up ex amount of dollars , sometimes in the thousands!!!
