Modeling Agency on Long Island
Does anyone on here know of a reputable modeling agency on Long Island?
My niece who is 18 (and beautiful), wants to try her hand at modeling.
She doesn't want to get "scammed" by an agency that charges a ton of $$$ for a portfolio and then doesn't give you the training to do anything with it. She needs to learn how to go on go-see's, look for potential jobs, etc.
Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks SO, SO much!

LIF is looking for models, maybe that's a good start. You know they are legit.

I think she'd have better luck in the city if she is willing to go there.

She should never pay for pictures. If an agency wants her, they will pay for pictures.

Oh, thanks - I will have to tell her this.
I think she would prefer to stay on Long Island initially, and move on to NYC later if it goes well...

I honestly think the only way to really make it work is if she travels into the city. That is where all the work is.

My son models.It doesn't matter where your agency is, 98% of go-sees are in Manhattan and you never know where the shoots are. Have her submit to the agencies in the city.

ITA. I did this when I was younger, and even though there are some (a few) legit agents on LI, most of the work is in NYC or Jersey.
