I wanted to know if I have the requirements to be a top Model? Nov 22 12 05:55 am Link Impossible to say, because the #1 requirement is entirely INSIDE your head. I've been in this business a long time, long enough to recognize that attractive women are a dime a dozen, but ones with the personality and drive to make it through the rejection that is sure to happen (since nobody can possibly fit in all jobs available) and the perseverance to keep at it until it works are rarer than hens teeth. I know hundreds of beautiful wannabes who never make a dime as models, and a handful of plain ones who make a modest living at it anyway simply because they are relentless. Nov 22 12 06:06 am Link This question gets asked a lot. I'm actually working on an article for the EDU section. As a photographer, unless we see some quality well taken photos or have had an opportunity to work with you, there's no way to answer that question. Because there are so many facets and genre of modeling no one can tell if you've "got what it takes" to be a model based on a few snapshots. It's all about your style and your ability to pose, perform, follow direction and a little to do with your actual physical look. So saying, "do I have what it takes" or "Can I make it" is a very very very broad question which won't have an answer for years. Get photographed, try, learn get photographed some more and in a year or two you'll be able to answer that question yourself. If it's what you want to do, then do it. Don't let people discourage you because they don't think you're "model material" Do it for fun, learn and grow, then see where it leads you. To some, having the look and being able to pose comes naturally, others struggle to learn it. Both may or may not succeed. Nov 22 12 06:42 am Link Read this: www.newmodels.com You may want one of these: Model mentor: https://www.modelmayhem.com/po.php?thread_id=812235 And ask your question here: https://www.modelmayhem.com/t.php?forum_id=9 Welcome to the Mayhem. Nov 22 12 08:39 am Link Welcome to the Mayhem. Your age may work against you as a fashion model, but your figure will help you with lingerie and implied. Good luck and keep networking by browsing photographers, reading casting calls and writing your own casting call. Good luck and have fun. Nov 22 12 10:28 am Link No. Nov 22 12 10:33 am Link Fuck you bitch I wonder what your mother look like .this is for the last post.

Nobody has been rude to you! Chill out! You have the right physical stats, but you are starting late in the game. You are 10-12 years older than most girls just breaking into the industry.

That stuff helps me when I get grouchy. Nov 22 12 04:10 pm Link I would start with learning how to take measurements. I doubt you have a 34 inch waist and 25 inch hips. Nov 22 12 04:12 pm Link A few years ago, this might have had potential. But these days, trolling must be much more subtle and refined. This simply falls short.
