The Dos and Don'ts of Modeling on Social Media

Here at NVE Agency, we believe social media is one of the most powerful tools a model can use to grow their career. But with great power comes great responsibility. To help you stay on track, here are some important dos and don’ts every model should follow when using social platforms.

DO: Keep Your Profile Professional

Your social media is part of your brand. Use a clean profile picture, write a short and professional bio, and showcase your best modeling work.

DON’T: Post Low-Quality Content

Blurry or poorly lit photos can turn away followers and clients. Always aim for clear, well-composed images that reflect your skills and potential.

DO: Share Behind-the-Scenes Moments

Let people see your journey. Share snaps from castings, shoots, or prep days. This makes your followers feel connected and shows your dedication to modeling.

DON’T: Overshare Personal Drama

Keep it classy. Avoid posting anything too personal, negative, or emotional. Stay positive and focused on your career.

DO: Tag and Credit Creatives

Always give credit to photographers, makeup artists, stylists, and brands you work with. It shows professionalism and builds stronger relationships in the industry.

DON’T: Ignore Comments or DMs

Engage with your followers and respond to messages professionally. You never know when a comment or DM could lead to your next big opportunity.

DO: Be Consistent

Posting regularly keeps you in the loop and visible to scouts, brands, and agencies. Plan your content and stick to a schedule when possible.

DON’T: Copy Other Models

It’s okay to be inspired, but always stay true to your own look and style. Clients love originality, and your uniqueness is your strength.

Using social media the right way can help you grow, get noticed, and book more jobs. Just remember to stay professional, be mindful, and treat your platforms like your digital business card.
