Welcome to MM.  I think you have a wonderful look. You have some wonderful stats, so perhaps you should be looking at agencies in Los Angela's.

Until you have developed a strong port you may want to look through the browse feature for photographers that shoot fashion or swimwear.  There are great photographers inLA and San Diego regions. Just review their ports and what are the quality of the models and clients they have.

For example, Dave from Mission Photography in San Diego works with many agency models in both San Diego and Los Angelas. I think he is one of the very best at swim suit photography.

And there are others.

Offer to shoot trade with these top photogs so they can get you images to enhance your port. 

Also determine the genre you want to shoot. If you don't shoot glamour, or lingere, or nudes be very clear that you have no interest in those genres.

There should be a lot of interest in you at first as photographers always like shooting new faces. So don't just relay on the photographers to reach out to you. Actively network to develop your port.
