| *You must have made at least 50 posts to ILP.
*Your website must be attractive and easy to navigate, in other words, aimed at prospective clients -- no "Photosites" or sites hosted on free webhosts, as they contain too many blinking ads and are not suitable for client viewing.
*You must display at least 30 good portraits of various subjects, and the same subjects should not keep reappearing in your samples. Having taken the effort to photograph a wide variety of different subjects is one sign that you might be ready for F/A. If your site contains images only of your family, you are not ready for Full Access. However, you may be eligible for JSObiz, which is a specialized forum for those who are still honing their professional skills and working their way toward Full Access.
*You should have an about page, and contact information. Your website will demonstrate that you have a genuine and passionate interest in progressing in the field of child portrait photography. These requirements act as filters in screening out our possible clients, trolls, etc.
*You must list your name in your ILP signature so that ILPers know how to address you.
*Please look for the application link on the ILP front page, where the forum descriptions are located. At times the application won't be open because we need to catch up on app. reviews. Thanks for your patience.
