Modeling digitals or polaroids are one of the most important pictures for working and aspiring models in the industry. Modeling agencies will typically request aspiring models to submit their digitals via email or web form in order to be considered for representation.

What are digitals in the modeling industry?
===============
Essentially, they are basic images/photographs taken to showcase your face and body with minimal to no editing, styling or make-up. Digitals are the raw photo version of you that showcase to an agency/client what you look like in your most natural state.

Why are digitals needed?

Digitals ensure that the model has the look and potential to book jobs with the agency's client roster without having to be made up to be a success. In addition, they are also a way for the agency to clearly see the model's skin type (blemish-free) as well as the health of their hair, curves, etc.

When are digitals needed?
===============
Aside from agencies requesting them when a model is going through the submission process, once signed, agencies typically require that their models submit to them fresh digitals/polaroids every quarter...so every 3 months or so.

The purpose is to see if the model has grown, aged, if they have lost or gained weight, to verify the model's current hair color and length, etc.

How to shoot great digitals?
===============
Take your digitals against preferably a white background/wall or as close to white as possible. Natural lighting would be the suggested option as the purpose behind digitals is for the agency to see you best and natural light tends to create more well-lit images. When shooting in natural light or even indoors, be sure to avoid any shadows across your body. Images should be as clear as possible - not blurry or dark.
