Teen Modeling – Now and Then


One of the aspects of a teen modeling career that nobody takes into consideration is its longevity. You can’t expect to stay a teen forever, so what happens when you grow up?

Whether you’re already on your path to fame and fortune or you just started your career as a teen model, there are some things you need to know and take into consideration.

First of all, consider your teenage modeling career as a starting point. Teenage modeling jobs have a deep impact on a teenager and help build his personality and character, so how well you cope with the stress and requirements of these jobs decides whether you’re right or not for a modeling career.

Another advantage of teenage modeling is that the jobs are highly various, starting from clothes presentations up to different commercials. If you also take into consideration the fact that, most likely, at this point you don’t have any prior experience in the field, it’s safe to say that modeling as a teen is harder than modeling as an adult.


At one point you’ll no longer be a teen and if you decide to remain in this industry, things will get a bit easier. Adult modeling is easier because you’ve already acquired experience along the way and the offers are not that varied. In the best scenario you will have already picked up a contract with a renowned brand and work only for them. That ensures you regular work, timely payment and a good opportunity to build a name for yourself. Even if you wasn’t that lucky and haven’t caught that big fish yet there’s no need to despair. The accumulated experience as a teen glamour model and your constantly increasing portfolio will surely attract the attention of the big players at one point.

The only thing you need to worry about is whether you’re really up for the long road. You’ve already passed the teenage stage, so is modeling really for you? You can now make a correct evaluation, putting all the hard work and stress on one side and the fame and money this job has brought you on the other side. If you think it was all worth it and you’re confident that this is for you, go on and make a name for yourself in this industry. Keep in mind that nothing is really impossible, you just need to want it badly enough.
