About the guide
Entering the profession.
Before the first booking, there are decisions to make: which market to enter, how to build a portfolio, and where to look for representation and paid work. Starter Model Guide brings those early choices into focus, drawing on Daisi Pollard Sepulveda’s experience as both a freelance and agency-represented model.
From industry terminology and online presence to assembling a creative team, this first volume offers a grounded introduction to the profession. It gives aspiring models practical guidance on presenting their work, finding opportunities, and developing professional relationships.
For aspiring models looking for a clearer understanding of the profession and its first steps.
