Here is the low down on agents. There should be no more than a $50 fee per year. If they offer you headshots tell them that you have a photographer in mind already. Get them done by pro at a different local. I am not fimiliar with that agent but if they are asking for alot of money then it is a scam. Keep in mind that the agent works for you, you don't work for the agent. Check with your local theatre company and see if they can get you a list. You can try the A.C.T.R.A. web sight and print off a list of agents that they deal with directly related to the area that you live.
Take your time and shop around. I got ripped off five hundread dollars quite some time ago. Please don't just look them up on the net. Too many scams.
Have fun and keep smiling

SCAM! Legitimate Talent Agencies do NOT have names such as ProScout.
If you notice, legitimate Talent Agencies, use the name of the founding agent of the Talent Agency, Abrams Artists, William Morris Agency and so forth.

If you have doubts about the company, don't sign up with them. There are many different companies that are known, and those are the ones you should look for.
