You should look like the models in the fashion magazines.
You do NOT need a modeling portfolio.

The TOP modeling agencies in New York City, pay for the photo shoot to build your portfolio.

Once the model makes money from booking assignments, the agency takes the money the model made, as payment for the photographs.

If you end up with a scam modeling agencies, they can charge you any amount of money for photos that are not professional.

Top agencies: Ford, Click, Elite and iMG, Click, Elite
Ford, IMG and Wilhemina.
