The photographer took so many photos! Its hard to narrow down. I'm trying to pick for submitting to agencies, aiming for commercials as I don't have a huge resume yet, with film/tv as a possibility. Also hoping to use the older to play younger as a selling point- what age range/type do you see? (red top was aimed older, maroon and blue at younger), and which photos would you recommend I use? Thanks!

You're adorable. I like a couple of the knee-hugging ones, especially 146.jpg and 158.jpg (that's the number that comes up when you click/enlarge the photo). 057 is nice too.

110 with some cropping/resizing might work.

here's the bad news - you are not going to look much "older." I see you as teens (can definitely play high school!) to very early twenties at the oldest.

the good news -- young is marketable so you got it in the bag.

I like 110 and 116

U sure are c ute...

I like 57 and 110 best, but that's a totally unprofessional opinion. I see you as looking 22-25. I wouldn't really see you playing much younger than that, but I guess the person above disagrees. I'm 18, and I don't think you could pass for under 17 in a film. For theatre I guess you could play younger, and you could also play younger in a student film, but I don't see you as playing younger in a feature unless you're very petite.

Nice to hear different opinions! (To Olivia), great comment about petite..I'm actually just under 5'. The photos look pretty true to me, so I guess people must use height to judge a lot more than I thought! Random people in person usually tell me a range of 13-15. (In response to Justine), a range up to 20ish was the goal, so I'm happy with that.

I like 110 a lot. Great shots all around!

I'm quite petite myself (5'1") and that's the only reason I think I might be cast as younger than I actually am. (Most people assume I'm older than I am in real life.) I think size definitely matters here because if you were 5'10", you'd have trouble playing 13-15. But at just under 5', that makes it way more likely that you can fit those roles physically. A really tall girl, even with a young looking face, is going to have trouble when she's towering over the actress who plays her mom. But if you're shorter than everyone else on set, that makes your age a lot more believable. Good luck! The photos are very nice!

i really think the fourth pic is the best. the one where your hugging your knees and giving a million doller smile!

I like the second one on the top row. But I think the first one on the bottom row is my fave. You have a great look in your eyes - they really pop.
