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 below to a 8.5x11 sheet of paper:

                          (This MUST be on your resume - DO NOT put your phone number or address!)
