3 Tips for Denver Kids Modeling Headshots – by Natascha Lee Studios

Are you looking for headshots of your child model, actor, gymnastics, dancer, or performer? Here are three tips for you.


Tip #1: Many people think you just need one or two images. Actually, you will need at least 9 images: 3 distinct outfits, then a headshot, a 3/4 and a full body of each outfit

Tip #2: Your portfolio images also should demonstrate a variety of expressions (your child’s “range”), but still be consistent in terms of showing your child’s unique personality.

Tip #3: It’s super important that your photographer is great with kids! Your child need to have FUN during her/his session.

Here is what a recent client said on my Facebook page:

Natascha, you are such a joy to work with! Mackenzie can’t wait to come back and bounce some more. We feel so fortunate to have had you do Mackenzie’s head shots! – Jennifer, Mackenzie’s Mom

Aurora Toddler Children's Photography – Natascha Lee Studios

modeling portfolio headshots + regular toddler portrait session. And, little Miss P was a typical toddler, and would not sit still for portraits. She loved jumping on the bed in my “Jump Room” @ my N. Denver Studio, and she loved collecting rocks on the roof (yes! We even do roof sessions sometimes – very cool!)  And any time I sat on the ground (which I do often when photographing children), she walked right over to me and sat in my lap! Love her!

Denver Dance Kid Dynamo – Dancer and Modeling Portfolio Shots by Natascha Lee Studios

Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing Presley’s modeling portfolio images @ my studio just North of Downtown Denver. It’s a real honor to photograph these wonderful children’s modeling portfolio images, and I enjoy making sure each image celebrates not only their external beauty, but even more importantly that it highlights their unique personality and their internal beauty.  Quite a few of my clients are involved in dance, ice skating or gymnastics.

Presley is a dear, so full of external and internal beauty! She currently dances with Starstruck Academy of Dance. She was most recently in the ShowBiz Entertainment dance competition, where she won; 1st in her age division, solo “High Point Title” winner, as well as being named “Ms. ShowBiz”. Congrats Presley! She is also an incredible student, with straight “A’s” even though she dances 5 days a week.

What a little star!

BTS: A little BTS – Behind-The-Scenes story about her pose on the right. As background, I often actually get into the pose I want someone else do, as it’s the quickest way to convey the idea.  I was trying to show Presley how I wanted her to keep her shoulders back she got in the pose. So I grabbed my own foot and got into the pose to show her. Not knowing that I am a former ballet dancer myself, she was quite shocked and as I grabbed my foot and started moving above my head, right there in the middle of the sidewalk – she initially reached out to help me, like she was worried I was falling over.  Then, once I got into the pose (very briefly), she smiled and understood. Still, there was a moment there where she really didn’t know what the heck her crazy photographer was doing and was trying to be helpful. Such a sweetie!
