Child Modeling
I've been told I should submit DS' photos to modeling agencies. He's not 5 months yet so I'm skeptical about doing it so young.
Don't babies need to be able to sit (ie. 6 months) before they can book gigs?
For those with experience, how many agencies did you send photos to?
TIA!

Re: Child Modeling
I personally wouldn't do it.... I don't want my baby to be exposed to 'work' or any experience like that at such a young age.... (then again, whie many people comment that DS looks just like a doll, they likely wouldn't want DS anyway becuase he's too tall... )

Re: Child Modeling
Yes - you are right - they usually want the baby to be able to sit up.
We looked into when she was 4 months, and were told that.
We never went through with it.

Re: Child Modeling
Thanks ladies, I definitely don't want it to be viewed as work for my DS so will have to rethink this before going forward with it.

Re: Child Modeling
My DS was 4 months when he started ....It was fun and he has some nice keep-sakes from it ....Its a lot of traveling though !!!...We sent out to probably about 8 agencies, heard from about half and signed with 2.
Heres is a couple of his mag. ads from when he was around 4 months ( they find ways to prop them )

Re: Child Modeling
