Submission Process for New Talent :
All talent who wish to be represented by Ryan Talent and Model MUST follow instructions below.
Please note that we receive a large volume of submissions and cannot return photos so please do not
send photos which you need returned.
Baby Division
Babies ages 0-3 years old DO NOT require professional headshots or portfolios. Babies change too quickly for professional portraits to be effective so
please do not waist your money on expensive pictures. Instead, please send ten of the following photos/resumes with a $35 Annual Administration Fee
to Ryan Talent for representation. Please update your babies' photos/resumes every 6 months or with any drastic change such as hair cuts or clothing
size changes. Administration fee must accompany first submission but is only due once a year until your child reaches age 3, when they will be
offered representation in our Tot Division.
Attach a current 4x6 snapshot of your baby as well as the information listed, in the format below, to an 8.5x11 sheet of paper:
Child's Name
(This MUST be on your resume - DO NOT put your phone number or address!)
