Model Portfolio Maker

Built for models and the agencies that submit them, laid out in the order casting actually reads. Publishing costs nothing, no watermark crosses a headshot, no ads run beside your digitals, and there is no limit on how many books and comp cards you keep online.

Add Stats and Links

Choose a page turn style, set the agency mark and colours, embed a reel or a walk clip, and add clickable links to your booker, the agency site, and the campaigns your images came from.

3

Publish and Submit

Publish in one click. Paste the share link into a casting reply, embed the book on the agency site, or print a QR code on a physical card. Your book is ready for the next brief.

How to Create a Model Portfolio Flipbook

Making the book with Flipbooks AI takes minutes and no new software. Start with the PDF your agency exports, or the one you laid out yourself in Canva or InDesign. Upload it and the tool builds an interactive flipbook preview straight away. Pick a page turn style, add the agency mark and colours, drop in a reel and a link to your booker, and decide whether the book is open or password protected. Check it on a phone, because that is where casting will see it first. Publish with one click, copy the link, and paste it into your next submission.

What is a Model Portfolio or Comp Card?

A model portfolio is the book an agency or a casting director asks for before anyone meets you. It opens with a clean headshot, moves through natural beauty, full length and profile shots, then usually ends on a comp card page: your name, your agency, your stats and a few of the strongest images on one sheet. Flipbooks AI takes that book as a PDF and turns it into an interactive flipbook with pages that turn like a printed magazine. This is not a general portfolio builder aimed at every profession, and it is not a photography book where the credit belongs to the camera. It is built around what a booker looks for and the order they look for it in.

What Casting Directors Expect to See

Casting is fast, so the order matters more than the count. Open with a clean headshot in good light, no heavy makeup and hair off the face, so features read clearly. Follow with a natural beauty shot, a full length standing shot, and a profile. Then earn attention with the story work: editorial, campaign, runway, whatever you actually have. Keep digitals recent and honest, because a booker is comparing the page to the person who will walk in. Put the stats and the agency contact where nobody has to hunt for them. A flipbook holds that order for you instead of leaving it to a scroll.

Put Your Stats on a Page They Can Read

Put Your Stats on a Page They Can Read

The stats page is the part of a book people scan first and design last. Flipbooks AI keeps it legible: height, the measurements your agency lists, hair, eyes, shoe, and the sizes you fit, set as a proper page rather than squeezed into a caption. Add your agency, your booker and your union or work status if that applies to the market you are in. Keep it accurate and keep it current, because a number that does not match the fitting is the fastest way to lose a client twice. Republishing after a change costs nothing and the link never moves.

Why Send a Model Book as a Flipbook?

Most books arrive as a heavy PDF, a shared folder, or a link to a profile buried in a platform. A flipbook arrives as one tap. You upload the book as a PDF and a few minutes later you have a link that opens in the browser with nothing to install, on the phone a booker is already holding. Page turns set the order, so casting meets the headshot first and the story shots later, rather than a grid where a holiday photo sits next to a campaign. When you shoot new digitals or a job goes live, swap the pages and the same link shows the new book, so a submission from three months ago is never the one being judged today.

Create Your Model Book

Make the Book Look Like Your Agency

A book should look like it came from the board that sent it. Flipbooks AI lets you set the agency mark, the colours, the background around the pages, and the way navigation appears, so the frame around a model looks deliberate. Multiple language support helps an agency submitting across markets. For a board with thirty models, keeping one frame across every book is part of how a client recognises where a submission came from before they read a single name, and it is the kind of consistency people notice without being able to name it.

Help Scouts and Clients Find You Online

Help Scouts and Clients Find You Online

A model book flipbook can be set up so search engines index it, which helps scouts and smaller clients find a board without an introduction. Embedding the flipbook on an agency site adds real content to the page and keeps visitors reading longer, which helps how the page ranks. Give it a plain title and the words clients actually search for, like the market, the category of work, and the city, so a producer looking locally lands on real books. A book built for one season quietly keeps working long after that season closed.

Features Built for Models and Agencies

Flipbooks AI gives a model book the things it actually needs. Full bleed images stay full bleed, so a full length shot is not cropped into a square by a viewer. Keep the comp card page as a proper spread with your stats set clearly rather than typed into a caption. Embed a short reel or a walk clip beside the stills, which is the only way movement ever reads on a page. Add clickable links to your agency, your booker, or the campaign the image came from. Drop in a downloadable comp card PDF for the client who still wants one for a wall. Searchable text means an agency looking for commercial work finds your commercial work. All of it is free, and no watermark ever crosses a headshot.

Keep Digitals Current and Honest

Digitals are the least glamorous pages in a book and the ones bookers trust most. Plain background, daylight, minimal makeup, hair down and hair back, front, side and back, and no retouching. They exist so a client knows exactly who is arriving. Flipbooks AI makes them easy to keep current: shoot a fresh set on a phone, swap those pages, and republish, and every link already sent shows the new set. Because it costs nothing to republish, there is no reason to leave a year old set in a book that says you look different now.

Send Different Books to Different Markets

Send Different Books to Different Markets

Very few models should send the same book everywhere. Flipbooks AI makes tailored versions cheap to keep. Build one main book, then cut a commercial version for lifestyle clients, an editorial version for magazines, and a fitness version for sports briefs, each on its own link. Track which version gets read to the end. Share the same book with a mother agency, a market agency and a booker, so everyone is submitting the current one. Sending the right ten pages beats sending the same forty to every brief and hoping the right shot is in there.

Fits Fashion, Commercial and Fitness Books

Whether you are a fashion model with a runway history, a commercial model whose work is catalogue and lifestyle, a fitness model with a sports book, a parts model showing hands or hair, or an agency keeping a board of talent, the tool fits the book you already have. It handles a tight ten page submission as happily as a hundred page agency book with a section for every model on the board. Upload the designed PDF and it becomes an interactive flipbook in minutes. Keep one main book and trimmed versions for particular briefs, each on its own link, so a commercial client reaches the smiling daylight work without scrolling past editorial.

Cheaper Than Printing Comp Cards

Printed comp cards and books are part of the job and they cost real money. A print run, a rush charge when the images change, postage to another market, and a stack of cards that are wrong the week after a haircut. Flipbooks AI removes that cost while adding what paper cannot do. Publish unlimited versions with no print bill. Add the campaign that went live on Monday and every link already sent shows it. Reach a client in another country at no extra cost. And you can see what was actually viewed, which no printed card has ever told anyone.

Credits, Campaigns and Runway History

Credits, Campaigns and Runway History

A book is more convincing when the work is named. Flipbooks AI makes that easy: put a credit line under an image, link a campaign to where it ran, and keep a clean credits page listing shows, brands and publications. Keep it factual and current, because bookers check. Link the photographer where a shoot is theirs to share. A credits page costs nothing to keep and answers the question a client asks anyway, which is not whether the pictures are good but whether other people have already trusted you with a job.

Opens on a Phone in a Casting Room

Books get looked at in the least ideal places. On a phone in a casting corridor with twenty people waiting. On a laptop while a client talks over the top of it. On a tablet passed across a table at a go see. Flipbooks AI keeps your images sharp on all of them. The layout adapts to the screen while the page turns stay smooth, so a spread still reads as a spread on a small display. A booker swipes between shots, pinches to zoom on a profile, and taps the agency link without hunting for a phone number. It runs in the browser, so nobody installs anything before they can see you.

Loads Fast Between Castings

If a book takes too long to open, casting moves to the next submission in the folder. Flipbooks AI tunes every book to load quickly, including on a phone with two bars in a stairwell. Smart compression keeps skin, fabric and hair detail crisp while cutting the file size, so a full length still holds up. The first pages appear straight away while the heavier images finish loading behind them. That speed is the difference between a client seeing your headshot and a client watching a loading circle before they close the tab.

Works With the Tools Agencies Already Use

Works With the Tools Agencies Already Use

Flipbooks AI sits alongside the tools a board already runs. Export the book from Canva, Adobe InDesign, Affinity Publisher, or Lightroom and upload the PDF. Add links out to the agency site, a booker email, a reel, or the client campaign page. Drop the embed code into a Squarespace, WordPress, or Wix site so books live inside the agency's own pages rather than on a platform someone else designed. There is nothing new to learn, because the tool starts exactly where your export finishes and leaves the rest of the workflow alone.

Flipbooks AI costs nothing, and the parts a working model cares about are not the parts held back. Other tools stamp their own logo across your images, cap how many pages you publish, or keep viewer analytics for paying accounts. Here you get unlimited pages, unlimited books, clean spreads carrying only your name and your agency, and every option open from the first upload. A new face building a first book, or an agency refreshing thirty of them before a season, can publish as often as the work demands without a subscription sitting between them and a submission.

Keep an Archive of Every Book You Have Had

Keep a tidy archive of every version of the book. Last year's digitals, the first test shoot, the season the hair was short, all saved and ready to pull from. When a brief lands asking for something specific, you assemble the right ten pages out of what is already there instead of starting from nothing. Nothing important lives only in a folder on a laptop that later dies, and an old book becomes the starting point for the next one rather than something you quietly lose.

What Models and Bookers Say About This Tool

I was sending a forty megabyte PDF to every casting and half of them never opened it. Now I paste one link and it opens on a phone before they finish reading the email. The headshot is first, the digitals are second, and my stats are on a page instead of buried in the message. I stopped apologising for file sizes.

Product catalogs

We run a board of thirty two models and every book used to be a separate attachment on a hard drive. Now each model has a link with the agency mark on it, and when someone shoots new digitals we swap two pages and the same link updates. Clients stopped asking whether the images were current.

Client lookbooks

The analytics are the part I did not expect to care about. I could see a client opened my book, went straight past the editorial and spent a minute on the commercial pages, so my booker sent a version that led with those. I got the callback. That would have been pure guesswork on an attachment.

Newsletters and programmes

I used to reprint comp cards every time my hair changed, which was often and expensive. The digital one takes ten minutes to update and the QR code on my printed card still points at the current book, so the card in a client folder never really goes out of date. It has not cost me anything.

Keep Unreleased Campaigns Private

Keep Unreleased Campaigns Private

Plenty of a model book cannot be shown yet. A campaign under embargo, a lookbook before the season drops, images a client has not cleared. Flipbooks AI keeps those versions private with password access, so only the people you invite can open them. You can switch off downloading, so unreleased images do not travel further than the submission they were made for. Secure hosting looks after the rest. It means an agency can show a client what exists without putting any of it on the open web.

Create Your Model Book

Submit to Casting and Agencies in Seconds

When the book is ready, submitting takes seconds. Copy the share link into a casting reply, an email to a booker, or a message to a client who asked to see more. Embed the flipbook on an agency site so a board sits where clients already look. Print a QR code on a physical comp card so the full book opens from a card left behind at a go see. Password protect a version built for one client, so unreleased campaign images are not sitting on an open link for anyone who guesses the address.

Readable for Every Booker Who Opens It

A book should be readable by whoever the client puts in front of it, and that is easy to forget when you are designing for impact. Flipbooks AI covers the basics for you. Screen reader support means your stats, captions and credits still reach a reader with low vision. Keyboard navigation lets anyone who does not use a mouse move through the book. Clear contrast and uncluttered controls keep it easy to read on a phone in a bright room. None of it asks you to compromise the images, and it widens the set of people who can get through a submission without friction.

Flipbooks AI publishes unlimited model books and digital comp cards for free, with no watermark across a headshot, the comp card kept as a proper page, a reel inside the book, links to the agency and the booker, and viewer analytics after a submission goes out.

Instagram

5.2/10No2

Instagram is where scouts and clients already browse, and a strong grid does get people noticed. It is a feed rather than a book, so the order is out of your hands, personal posts sit beside professional work, and there is nothing to attach when a casting asks for digitals and stats.

Casting Networks

7.1/10No3

Casting Networks is built for submitting to real briefs and is where a lot of casting work is actually run, which makes a profile there worth keeping. It is a submission platform with its own layout, so a client sees the profile the platform designs rather than a book that looks like your agency.

Backstage

8.3/10No4

Backstage lists a wide range of casting calls and gives talent a searchable profile, which is useful for finding work directly. The profile is a form, not a paced book, and it lives inside the site, so there is nothing you can send to a client who never signs in.

Model Mayhem

6.4/10No5

Model Mayhem is a long running network for arranging tests and building a first set of images, and plenty of new faces start there. It is a community profile rather than an agency book, and the presentation is the same for everyone on it.

Format

7.8/10No6

Format builds a tidy portfolio site with clean galleries and client proofing, and it looks good on a phone. It is a monthly website rather than a document you submit, so a comp card page and a paced book are not really what it is designed to produce.

Squarespace

6.9/10No7

Squarespace makes an attractive site and handles hosting and domains, which suits an agency that wants one home online. It is a subscription and a website, so there is no page turning book to paste into a casting reply and no reading data afterwards.

Canva

8.1/10No8

Canva is a quick way to lay out a comp card when you do not want to open a design suite, and the templates get you close fast. Its viewing mode is basic next to a real flipbook, with no proper page turns and none of the reading data you want after submitting to a client.

Issuu

6.5/10No9

Issuu hosts publications and gives a magazine style read out of a PDF, which suits a season lookbook. Free uploads carry Issuu branding around your pages and sit in a shared reader, which is the opposite of a book that should look like it came from one board.

Printed Comp Cards

7.6/10No10

A printed comp card is still handed out at go sees and clients still keep them. It is also a fixed print run that is wrong after a haircut, carries only a handful of images, shows no movement, and tells nobody whether it was looked at again after the room emptied.

Special Books for Fashion Week and Open Calls

Special Books for Fashion Week and Open Calls

Make one off books for the moments that matter. A show package sent to a casting the week before fashion week. An open call book a scout can open from a QR code on a card. A market book for a placement abroad, with the local agency contact on the first page. A season wrap an agency sends to its clients. Each gets its own flipbook with the links and the clips that suit it, and its own analytics, so you learn which submission held attention and which one lost people on the second spread.

See What Casting Actually Looked At

Knowing what a client viewed changes what you send next. Flipbooks AI shows how many people opened the book, which shots held attention longest, and the page where reading stopped. If the commercial section gets read twice and the editorial section gets skipped, an agency learns which way to lead the next submission. It also tells you the book was opened at all, which is more than an attachment has ever told a booker, and it turns a guess about a client taste into something you can act on before the callback.

A Model Book That Keeps Up

Phones change, and a book that only looked right on the handset someone owned three years ago is a problem you will not notice until a client mentions it. Flipbooks AI keeps up with current web standards and the devices bookers actually use. Updates arrive on their own, so your books gain new features without anyone rebuilding them. Everything is hosted, so there is no software to install and nothing to maintain. A link an agency sent a client two years ago still opens, and the book still looks the way it was set.

Frequently Asked
Model Portfolio Maker

What is a model portfolio flipbook?

It is your model book or comp card PDF turned into an interactive book with real page turns. Flipbooks AI does this for free, so a booker swipes through your headshot, digitals and story work, plays a reel, and taps your agency link in the browser with nothing to download.

Is Flipbooks AI really free for models and agencies?

Yes. It is completely free, with no watermark across a headshot, no page cap, and no trial that expires mid season. Customization, sharing, password protection, and viewer analytics are included for every book and comp card you publish.

Can I make a digital comp card with it?

Yes. Lay the comp card out in your PDF the way you would print it, with the images on one side and your stats and agency contact on the other, and the flipbook keeps it as a proper page instead of squeezing it into a caption.

What should the first pages of the book be?

A clean headshot, then natural beauty, full length and profile shots, so a booker can read your features and proportions before anything else. The story work comes after that. A flipbook holds that order rather than leaving it to a scroll.

How do casting directors open my book?

They tap a link. Paste it into a casting reply, embed the book on an agency site, or print a QR code on a comp card left behind at a go see. Flipbooks AI hosts it, and password protection keeps a client version off the open web.

Can I see which shots a client looked at?

Yes. Analytics show how many people opened the book, which shots held attention longest, and where reading stopped, so the next submission is shaped by what actually happened rather than by a guess.

How many images can a model book hold?

As many as you want. There is no page limit and no cap on how many books you publish, so a ten page submission and a full agency board with a section per model are both perfectly fine.

Can I update the book after I submit it?

Yes. Swap in new digitals, add a campaign that has gone live, correct a measurement, and republish. The link already sent shows the new version, so nobody is judging you on a book from two seasons ago.
