Remember to have pictures that make a bold statement about you and show you in the best light. Any basic and versatile portfolio should have a casual head shot,

a full length shot, a fashion shot, an exclusively styled shot (Detailed attention to the entire look) and even a natural shot. These pictures should showcase you in different looks so that the agency or the client would know how versatile your looks can be.
