Topic: Baby Modelling Posted: 18 December 2006 at 10:13pm |
Hey was just wondering if anyone knows how to get into that? Am interested in getting Aston into it since everyone thinks he'd be good at it, just not sure where im meant to start at? Plus im in Hamilton not Auckland so maybe there is no where down here to do that??? Any advice from anyone who may know be good!
Thanks

I applied for Erin to be a baby model for The Baby Factory via their website. They got back to me within a couple of days, but sadly their next catalogue is full... they are keeping us on file though for any future photo shoots. I think Little Treasures did something similar a while back, or you could just start looking up modelling agencies on the web and see which ones do infants / babies / kids etc - mind you... that could be expensive rather than earn you cash at first !

Jake did some baby modelling in Japan which was a really nice little earner. the problem is, you have to go to auditions first-mostly just to see if your bub can fit the clothes, and that he/she won't burst into tears at the sight of a stranger. after that you get a call back usually and then you do the shoot. They usuallyu lasty two or three hours, but can be longer with older kids. Some of the parents are full-on into it, which can be really scarey...try not to make eye contact. I would say living in auckland and being a SAHM is a must

Oh Bekkie- Aston would be the best baby to do modelling with. Especially his sparkling eyes.

well apart from perhaps a small registration fee DO NOT get conned into paying for anything with baby / children model agencies...the rule is if you have to pay them they arent the ones you should be with!
I know a few pumpkin patch and huggies babies - some auditioned and some know people etc...most get paid!
I modelled as a child and teen - got some good money and was the (trying to get this right as i always have to re-ask mum what it was..) - "Lux flakes" baby on the pack for a year...still have the proofs....i was sooo cute!

If anyone has the latest ballentynes magazine Jacks girlfriend Maddix is on the cover don't think she got paid. I think heaps of the jobs are in Auckland
