Well of course Ford wouldnt look at the type of work that they put out, you have to go to agencies whose work looks like or has something pretaining to what you are looking for! Good Luck and congrats on the pregnancy!

Yeah that would be a great idea Im sure that they would be able to help you, even if it is just to point you in the direction of agencies that will take pregnant models! That is definitely a start!

In fact, they require their models to sign an exclusive with them for all pregnancy-related modeling, which is something that most fashion agencies won't allow their models to do. Their requirement is not that you be an agency model, but that you be a "professional model" - meaning that you have existing pictures (and probably a comp card) that is suitable to market you to mainstream commercial and fashion clients. If you don't have that, in their terms you are not a "professional model". And if you don't have that, you won't be able to compete successfully for those kinds of jobs anyway, whether you are signed by EM or not.

That is definitely a start! There are two types of agencies that take pregnant models: 1. Agencies that specialize in pregnant models. In the New York area, Expecting Models is pretty much the only one - they have the market wrapped up. 2. Agencies that will accept you as a model when you aren't pregnant, and then continue to represent you while you are. If you happen not to be a fashion model type (as is true here) then you have to have the kind of look they are after, and already have professional commercial/lifestyle pictures that are suitable to market you in the commercial print industry. If you don't have those, they won't be interested.
