Child Modelling - what makes a good photo?

[LaTristesse]

Morning ladies,

I'm about to submit some pictures of my son to some agencies, but I was wondering if anyone had any insight into what they may find a good photograph? I'm guessing what I find cute they might find gawky etc... And do they need to be smiling? Or full body?

Any advice anyone can provide would be gratefully received.

Thank you!

They usually want a couple of head shots - one not smiling and one smiling as well as a full length shot. They prefer clothing that doesn't have branding splashed across it and obviously a clean face, no dummies and no thumb sucking!

Thanks for the tips, they only want 2 pics, but I'll try and make sure all of the above is covered!
