If you are working towards joining the world of fashion, you don't want to go in empty-handed. You must find the best way to show off your poses in order to get the jobs that you want and to begin working. Get started by putting together a fashion portfolio that will open up the door to the fashion world.
Instructions
1. Know your goals. Before you create your fashion portfolio, you will want to think about what your interests are and what type of fashion you want to pursue. The more you define your style, the more focused you can be.
2. Set up a modeling session with a professional photographer. It is important to set up an initial session to get started in defining your style and your looks. When doing this, make sure that you find someone who is familiar with fashion and can work with different poses, outfits and looks.
3. Decide on your style. Before you meet with the photographer, make sure that you have outfits that will represent you best. You will also want to make sure that you have a make-up artist available in order to give you the best look under different types of lighting.
4. Set your poses. You will typically want to take different sets of photos. For instance, you will want to make sure that you take a couple of head shots in order to show your facial features. Other photos should show your figure while others should show your style.
5. Put together the proof. After you have set your poses, you can pick the 12 or 16 top photos and put them in a portfolio. Make sure that these are large photos and have them set horizontally.
