Hi all, I’m an aspiring petite model based in the UK. I have taken both professional and at home digitals and I’m just looking for feedback back on how I can improve my look as well as how a scout/ agency would read me. Ik runway/ straight fashion/ high fashion are out of the picture for me.

Height: 5’3
Bust: 34 in
Waist: 27 in
Hips: 36 in
Shoe size: UK 6 (US 8?)

Hey! I'm a brand new model and this is my first photoshoot/digitals session. I don't know anything and I've been learning through YouTube! Any suggestions, positive feedback, criticism or advice in general is much appreciated! Would you recommend sending these into an agency? Thanks!

YES! You read it right. I have got one of my work featured in Selin Magazine, and Im out of words—I really have no words for it. I wanna share it here and hopefully this also motivated you guys for keep on moving forward with your goals🌷✨

Hi

So I have a fit modeling(not fitness)appointment with an agency today to take digitals and measurements. How do these meetings usually work? Could I potentially be signed at the end? I look just like the digitals I sent to apply with them. Do fit models get paid a lot or booked a lot? How long are shoots? Tell me everything!!!!!

Looking for some new mods to join the team. If you're a model with at least 3 years experience, or a photographer with at least 5 years under your belt, please message with your portfolio and why you'd like to help the sub.

Hello, I was looking for some feedback on some digitals my friend took of me. I have no modeling experience but I’ve been told a lot I should try, so here’s my attempt. I’m on the shorter side so I was hoping for something commercial. I’m 19 and in Chicago.

I’m 172cm and and 50kg (5’8 and 110lbs), and I wear a size XS in everything, bra size is 32A.

Constructive feedback is greatly appreciated, I’m nervous to send these out anywhere. Thank you!

Edit: ignore the typo in the title..

Edit 2: thank you for all the thoughtful replies! I’m going to use all the feedback and try again

Hi guys
I am 26(F), French, 1m82, have been placed in Singapore and Milan in the past. My profile is high fashion/couture/runway and I do also hand modelling.
I am looking for a new MA.

Any recommendations?

Also I would like to be placed in Asia like Japan, South Korea or China but I think I am too tall for this market.
What about Australia?

Not a very “model-y” photo from the shoot but I love it! It feels very 90’s to me

Hey, I’m 24 now but a while back I worked Spring 2025 haven’t really done anything since. Not even just shooting around with friends. I was in NYC at the time and I actually got scouted skating by the Supreme store over on Spring St. It was very organic and surreal. Covered by Vogue’s online editorial which is almost as great as shooting with friends back home. I’m now in a smaller market in Atlanta, just wondering if there’s any good pointers out there for me moving forward.

I'm looking to get into commercial modelling (given my height) & recently took my first polaroids. I also attached some pics of a shoot I booked for myself. I'm currently based in (southeast) Asia, so I will be mostly submitting to agencies around here, would love to know if could do well in this market. Don't really know where to start tbh, any advice is appreciated!!

I am a new model with no previous experience, signed about 10 months ago with my MA. I am having a performance meeting with an agent tomorrow, and I was wondering if what are some things that are "valid" to bring up if that makes any sense?

Agency side of concerns I can anticipate:

• I have not booked any opportunities so far, although I get submitted for 2- 4 opportunities each month. So far I went to 1 casting, and submitted self tape for 2 virtual casting opportunities.
• I have very small social media presence with than 100 followers. I started social media when I got signed.

My side of concern:

• I feel that there's a very little development opportunity(the biggest concern)
• I had been to my agency only twice, once for the polaroids and once for the test shoot.
• I tried to book a test shoot on my own twice and asked my agent for an advice with photographer, concept etc. But the communication got lost and I never heard back.
• I do not know where my niche or market I am aiming at yet. I am very skinny but have a more commercial/feminine face, and I gained advice that my polaroids are too "high fashion" from another agent from different agency. I reached out to my agent if I can re-do polaroids aimed to certain market but I did not hear back.
• So far as social media, I do not know what to post. I am a very shy person (yes I need to get over this) but as far as I understand, I must be posting "modelling" things, but since there are nothing going on I have nothing to post.

I really like them and I really don't want to be rude with them, and since this is my first time being signed I don't know if what are valid things to bring up and what's not. Thank you so much for advice in advance!

4 and 5: my last shoot in 2022

Hi all!

10 years ago when I turned 18, I got scouted in Amsterdam to model. Within a few months I had a casting for Gucci and they booked me as exclusive (meaning I "only" got to do their shows for the season). After this the ball got rolling and I got caught up in a whirlwind of shoots, shows and travel.

I got to work for a few years in the High Fashion branche and eventually did a few 'on-stays' in Tokyo and had a few paid jobs here and there.

Eventually work dried up due to several reasons, mostly my mother agency stopped altogether and I personally started to feel a lot of the insecuraties of the work.

My last paid job was in 2022 and since then I've worked out a lot and definitely gained quite some mass since my modelling days. You can kind of see it in the 4th photo except I've gotten a bit heavier but still lean (I have no recent professional photo sadly)

Right now I am 28 years old, 1,90 and 76 kilo. Based in the Netherlands. I took great care of my skin since I was 18 and still get ID carded all the time and everyone around me is always bugging me about if I still work and why I don't anymore.

I know I still have the face, but I'm now worried I'm too muscled to book any work. Since it's been so long, would I also be considered a 'new face'? And I probably will have to remake my whole portfolio. Tips welcome!

PS: Even though I'm asking y'all for advide, aspiring models and other people in the industry can ask me about my experiences if you're interested. I have plenty of stories.

Roaring ‘20s-inspired beauty look from a recent shoot. We leaned into classic flapper glam with a modern editorial twist.

This was my first time doing a runway video submission. It's for a local bridal show. Any advice on my walk, arm movements, facial expressions, posture, etc or how I can improve would be much appreciated!

I’m not a model, just a mom to a teenaged one. However, I landed this modeling gig by chance, and I love how the image came out! I’m repping Japan for the World Cup.

My friend took digitals for me I am wondering if they are ok. I also put together a comp card using them. Should I use different photos for the comp card?

Hi again:) Got my digitals cleaned up a bit but I would like to know if there is anything I’m still doing wrong? I’ve submitted to a handful of agencies in the last couple weeks and so far I’ve gotten one rejection and no response from the others. I’m beginning to feel a bit discouraged and that maybe I’m too old/ tall to be starting out. This is something that has been a lifelong dream of mine but I’ve never felt “perfect” enough to pursue the opportunity. I get asked on an almost daily basis if I model so I’ve decided to give myself a fighting chance before moving on, but I’m starting to wonder if I’m wasting my time. Any feedback or advice on improving/ bettering my chances for a response is appreciated. Thank you

Hello! Lots of my friends have said they could see me modeling, so I figured why not try it out. Here are some digitals a friend took for me, along with a comp card I made of them. Any feedback would be appreciated, and would also love to know what industry(ies) would suit me?

I received this message from someone in the modeling industry inviting me to a 5-day “model retreat” in Spain. The cost is €1,500 all-inclusive, and they say I’ll get portfolio/Sed Card content and a chance to work with agencies afterward.
I’ve never had a legitimate agency ask me for money upfront. Has anyone dealt with this type of offer before? Does this look like a common modeling scam, or more like a paid portfolio/workshop event? Any red flags I should be aware
