Getting Your Child Started in the Entertainment Industry

As a child headshot photographer in NYC, people often ask me about how to get their child started in modeling or acting.
Over the past couple of years, I’ve shared interviews, castings, and other info on my Newsletter and on my website. I’m compiling some of that here in one space that is easy (I hope!) to navigate.
I’ll keep adding more resources here for parents of child models and actors.
As always, you are welcome to contact me here or say howdy on Instagram if you have any questions.
