The Benefits of Baby Modelling

June 8, 2011 - PRLog -- One of the first most notable rewards of baby modelling (www.modelsdirect.com/become-a-model/babies/) is of course the experience. Whether it’s travelling to new locations, experiencing new things or making new friends, modelling provides a unique avenue to great memories, keepsakes and stories to embarrass them with when they're older!

The reality is that when dealt with professionally, modelling for a child of any age can be hugely beneficial, for both their social and emotional development. Socialising is an especially important aspect of a child’s development. Introducing your child to an array of new people of many ages will help familiarise them with the unknown and help to boost their social confidence as they grow up. A baby photo shoot will also often include other children, meaning that your son or daughter will be able to engage in some play time with children their own age.

Of course, an undeniable bonus of enrolling your child in a modelling agency (http://www.modelsdirect.com/) is the potential financial rewards. Whilst you must remember that any agency will likely take a commission fee, should they choose your child for a modelling shoot you will still also be entitled to a rate of pay for the hours you have given up. Photo shoots can pay anything from £60 to £100+ per hour, and often there is a two-hour minimum booking that the client in question will pay you for. This works out brilliantly for situations where the photographs are complete within thirty minutes – but you still receive two hours pay! If a client then wishes to use images or footage for over a year, an additional buy-out fee can provide even more earnings.

The monetary rewards can obviously contribute to the family as a unit and perhaps go towards a family holiday. Alternatively, if you are looking to create a trust fund for your child this money can go straight towards paying for their education.

A little careful planning could mean that the rewards and benefits for your family are just around the corner!

That's what Max's mum did, and Max (pictured above) has gone on to earn £1620.00 in total so far, having been chosen as the “hero” baby for the latest Pampers campaign.
