From First Photo to First Booking: Guide + Fillable Toolkit

When parents ask me how to get their child started, my first question is usually: are you ready to dedicate a lot of your time to this?

My husband and I worked through that question, and everything after it, with our three children in print, modeling, commercials, and some film and television. This guide shares what we learned, from first photos and finding an agency to auditions, set days, contracts, payment records, and knowing when to step away. It works wherever you live in the U.S., and it shows you exactly what to look up in your own state.

What you get:

• The complete parent guide (84-page PDF)
• A 21-page toolkit you can print or fill in on a computer
• A one-page Start Here sheet

This is a digital download, and it isn’t personal legal, tax, or financial advice. No guide can promise your child will be signed or booked.

Because this is an instant digital download, all sales are final. If a file won’t open, your download doesn’t work, or you were charged twice, email me at hello@ninabellford.com and I’ll make it right.
