A casting book built to make the model herself the product, not just the photographs.
Context
Isabella, a model working outside her home country, needed a printed casting book — the standard tool an agency or casting director expects — built from her own photographic material and career history.
Approach
Rather than treat the book as a photo dump, it was designed as a magazine, with Isabella’s own trajectory built into the sequence — placing her career history alongside the images so the book argued for her as a working professional, not just a set of headshots.
Outcome
The result is a casting book that reads as a considered publication, not a portfolio printout — built to make the strongest possible case for Isabella in the room she wasn’t in.
