how to take model digitals

that will get you noticed…

Let’s start with the basics: your digitals are your first impression. These photos should make the agencies see you clearly — no unnecessary glam, no distractions, just YOU. When done right, digitals can make you stand out. At STRIKE we see digitals every day, and trust us: clean, natural, and confident always sets you apart.

Lighting is everything!

You don’t need a fancy set up or a professional photographer to make the magic happen. What you do need is good lighting! With natural light, a plain background, and simple outfit that shows your shape you’ll be ready to go. For the fit: think fitted jeans and a plain black or white tank or fitted tee. Skip the heavy makeup and filters and be ready for your natural features to take the spotlight. Take a few shots: headshot, profile, and full-body. We want to see the real you!
