I have heard a lot of bad thing about SOME (not all) modelling agencies and how they make you pay for photos and photo sessions before they take you on then never give you any work. My advise to you is if you are reasonable with a digital camera (do not have to be a professional) Just take 100 photos of her in different poses, clothing and backgrounds then pick out 10-20 nice photos. You can then use this as a portfolio, and even better instead of printing them which cost you money every time, host them on a website and get some business cards print with the website address on and just hand these out instead. This is a far cheaper way of doing it and with no RISK. Then you can approach the agencies far easier, and will not have to pay out before they consider you.

However if you would like a personal portfolio site please contact me and I will set you on up for free. I can design you a fully personalised flash website with as much or little information and then host it for you. This site can contain a gallery of your photos, personal information, list of work, contact details, etc or if you prefer just a couple of photos and nothing else. It can be password protected and all images will be protected as is humanly possible, or the photos can be available to download.


Examples of work can be provided on request. Just message me here if you want, I am a professional website designer but have lots of free time (and enough money) so I am currently doing free sites for small bands, small artist etc, basically anyone who could not afford them otherwise. I have my own hosting server so can offer hosting servers or you can host the site yourselves. No images sent to me will be used for anything other than your site and I will not give anyone your detail or link to the site. You will have complete control and the site can be removed or changed at any time. This is not a scam and I will design a site for FREE, I do not need the money, and enjoy working. If you do want it message me you can tell me what you want and how you want it done and I will help.

Hope that helps

Open the Yahoo! Search Engine.
Type 'teen modelling+agency+nj ny pa'. Press enter. A list of all the Agencies in these areas will appear.
Send each outfit a copy of your girlfriend's detailed resume, and portfolio - along with full contact details, comments on types of modelling preferred, etc.
Phone each one of them up, after a week or so - just to confirm whether they have gone through her file, and also to gently remind them that she is serious about finding assignments.
Best of Luck !
