If it's the same 'company' I'm thinking of, it's either a very unqualified company or a total scam.

Clues are

SAS Studio / SAS Agency is a dedicated acting and modeling agency that provides professional modeling services for aspiring models as well as entertainment and media services. Our modeling agency services have been available for over 5 years including SAS Models, SAS Modeling and SAS Photography. SAS prides itself in modeling services based on Christian moral / values. Dedicated to providing top modeling talent for modeling agencies including runway modeling, fashion model photography and acting.

Our modeling agency territory covers California ( Newport Beach, Orange County, Los Angeles County ), Las Vegas Nevada, New York and Arizona. We offer a diverse selection of quality professional photography specializing in fashion photography and Modeling Agency assistance including Acting, talent search, scouting models and model search. As a professional modeling agency for custom glamour and model photography we offer competitive pricing and product knowledge. Our Modeling Agency services include Acting, glamour photography and professional model headshots. Our dedicated team can assist in providing a comprehensive assessment of your Modeling Agency photo needs.

1: Any time a company claims the "Christian" (moral/values) card they're just tugging at emotions of the foolish.  Kind of like when Nigerian scammers end their message with "God Bless".

2: Claims to be be in California, but doesn't display agency license number as required by California Law.

3: Offers professional photography services.  Calfornia (and other jurisdictions) prohibit agencies from charging for services other than finding employment for the models they represent.  Agencies are prohibited from charging fees to the models they represent.  Agencies are only allowed to receive compensation from thier clients, not the model/talent they represent.


They do show a tiny bit of honesty if you read everything thoroughly, but it contradicts their statement "SAS Studio / SAS Agency is a dedicated acting and modeling agency...".

"conglamourate"

"esnures"


I haven't heard of them but why would they ever reach outside of LA, and be taken seriously lacking this attention to detail

good luck OP
