There are many different types of modelling, not simply
strutting your stuff on the catwalks at the major fashion shows of Milan,
Paris, London or New York.
If you don’t meet the strict height requirements or aren’t
suitable in some other way for traditional forms of modelling, you may be
considering body part modelling.
Body part modelling is where you model only a single part of
your body.
The most popular body parts for modelling are eyes, ears,
mouth, hands, legs and feet.
This is because items such as jewellery, make-up, gloves,
stockings, socks and shoes need a tighter focus in images in order to show them
off, so showing a full length image of a model will not be suitable.
A lot of body part models are regular models as well, but
there are some people who make a living simply by modelling a single part.
Keep in mind that there will be a very close focus on the
hand, eye or whatever so it really must be outstandingly beautiful and blemish
free, with clear, even skin.
If you’re thinking about hands or feet, then nails must be
neatly trimmed and in a neutral shape. When doing test shots they should be
clean and free from any nail polish.
If you want to be a body part model, then as with any
modelling, the first thing to do is take some test shots to see how the
relevant part comes across in 2D images. You should take these shots in good
(preferably natural) light and use a decent camera. It’s even better if you can
get some time in a studio with a professional photographer, because their
skills will help show the full potential.
