Elevate your portfolio and promotional material for Spring 2025!

It is important for models to update their portfolios regularly to feature current trends, styles, and as a means to connect with new clients and guest agencies. Test shoots are also a great way to capture new content that features your personal brand as an artist and as an industry professional.

With this session upload new images to all of your casting platforms and start Spring 2025 off strong.

Photography, hair and make-up, wardrobe, custom mood board planning, and model coaching all included. 

This shoot will feature fashion and beauty looks, specified and laid out ahead of time with Leah during your planning session. Open to females, males, and children 4+.

Upon confirming your registration, an Elevation Hall rep will be in touch to confirm your time slot, send a measurement form, and discuss any details for your shoot.

FAQ

  • What should I pack?

    We may ask you to bring a few basic items in your model bag to complement the wardrobe selected for you. An email will go out the week of the shoot reminding you of any items needed for your shoot. Hair and make-up/grooming provided, so arriving well rested and fresh faced is essential.

  • Why should I update my portfolio?

    Clients and agencies want to know what you look like now! This means your test shoots and portfolio images should be updated frequently! Typically, 1-2 times a year update is sufficient when combined with creatives and paid work. Test shoot images can also showcase your booking potential for different markets and different character types.
