Never afraid of the camera/s is my best advice
Are you old enough?
Did you talk to your parents/love ones about this?
Ask yourself, what makes you to want to become a model? Any inspiration/z?
What kind/types of modelling ....?
Practice makes perfect :)
Ever watched American Next Top Model?

Get a portfolio together if you plan to go to an agency, normally you need a headshot and a full length shot.
But, if you are between 13-24 years old CosmoGirl! helps sponser "So You Want To Be A Model" modeling contest. You can go to soyouwanttobeamodel.com for more info on that.

eh, if you want to be a supermodel or a powermodel, you have to fit in REALLY skinny sizes. At least a size 5, I think. You have to be REALLY tall. now, take a bunch of pictures of yourself and look at yourself, do you think that you look good in front of the camera?
if not, than you're not fit to be a model.
millions of other teenagers share your dream. I know that it sounds like a glamourus job, you get to make tons of money, wear beautiful clothes,travel to different places, have make up artists paint up your face and meet tons of famous people.
But it really isnt that great. People will keep telling you what you should eat, you'll keep hearing them complain that you' loook soooo much better if you lost 20 pounds, or if you didnt have those braces.
You have a very,very,very,very,very slim chance of making it. It includes tons of waiting in lines and there's like a 90% chance that you'll have to do the whole grin and bear it thing.
plus you have to pay 2000-3000 dollars for a dumb portfolio.
This will also greatly interfere with school work.
It takes up most of your time too
But if you think you can handle all of it, than take some pictures of yourself and send them to a modeling agency.

trust me
You dont want to
its good money
but can you really handle them telling you what weight you have to be
weighing 109 pounds and saying you need to lose 10 pounds in a week
and tell you not to eat
telling you what to eat and what not to eat
and the stress
its not worth it
but if you really wanna be a model they recommened you be 5'7 or more and under like 120 something like that.
Unless your going for a bbw model!

First off, you need to be tall, all agencies love tall models. Second off, find an agency near you. There is at least one in every city. FYI: they love middle sized people. They don't like them too thin or too chunky.
