Thats it. I'm a new model and I want to hit up some agencies before my birthday rolls around at the end of the month.. before I seem too old to be a newbie lol.
Do I have to have a book or could I get away with a headshot?

nope, not if you are trying to get a agent. you dont need a headshot or a book. they can take you into their new faces division and then they will help you build your book.

Yeah, polaroids are fine. Looking at your stats looks like you'll be going the fashion route so a headshot, body shot (in a simple two-piece suit) and a profile shot taken in front of a white wall with your hair pulled back and no make-up on is fine.

I like to have one smile and one no smile also. Lots of times they will end up taking a polaroid of you too which means you just may be a shoe in.

Good luck!
