  • Be Professional In Their Appearance And Behavior. Teenagers should dress appropriately for shoots and auditions, and should conduct themselves in a professional manner. This means avoiding excessive PDA, foul language, and other unprofessional behavior.

Personalized Coaching

Personalized coaching for teenagers in modeling begins with identifying their unique strengths.
