[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 284845, member: 1233"] One of the best things you can do is to take a camera and take some pics of her. Head shots, full body, with a neutral background (parks can be very handy as the natural light can make a big difference). They don't need to be fancy, even snapshots from a polaroid will do. They are to show how the camera sees her. Some truly stunning women do NOT photograph well and some rather plain looking women end up with stunning photos. The camera is unpredictable that way. When you take the pictures it is important to have some that are close up but not cutting off the top of her head or her feet. If you take digital pics you can actually crop them at some of the machines in Walgreens and/or Walmart. NEVER EVER EVER EVER pay fees for modelling. Glamour shots is also not a great idea. The training for photographers and makeup people there is iffy at best and the risk of contaminated makeup and hair brushes has been very high in the various studios around here who offer it. The last thing she needs is an eye infection or lice because something wasn't cleaned properly. (NOT all the places are bad, they just have a higher risk AND you can do all that yourself a LOT cheaper). After you have some pictures then send them to various businesses. If there is a locally owned clothing store or jewelry store you will have better luck as featuring local models drives in business. I hope that it is fun, educational and that she enjoys it. And that she achieves the level of success that she wants to achieve! [/QUOTE]
