have you heard Willihemenia agency?
I went to to an agency yesterday(NOT Wilhelmina) Who stated..."That they laugh at models and photographers on this site because we don't know what we are doing?"Even though, This is where they found me!! I walked away. After that experience,Now i'm scared to even consider Willihemina who I have an appt with in the upcoming weeks...PLEASSSE HELP...what do you guys think...agency or not...I wanna see myself in the cover of Guess..How do I get there:)I know I'm short:))))) Dec 13 06 11:22 am Link Well, you're 5'2" so unless you become a celebrity the odds of you doing a major fashion campaign like Guess are zero. There's plenty of other kinds of work, though. I'd suggest reading www.newmodels.com, it'll have a lot of answers to your questions. Good luck!

Dec 13 06 11:57 am Link Do you mean Wilhelmina? They are an excellent agency. Like all excellent agencies, they believe that what happens here is orthogonal (or worse) to what happens in their industry. Just don't mention it to them.

It didn't take them long to realize they made a mistake and pull the plug. Dec 13 06 01:31 pm Link Willie in a great agency... I booked with them hundreds of times when I was in NY. If they are interested in you.. It's definately worth the time to meet with them. I agree that mentioning sites like this is a big mistake. In interviews.. I find "Less is More" .. show your book and answer the quetions they have.. don't expound, keep answers short, sweet, and honest. Good luck, Perc. Dec 13 06 01:39 pm Link Its beyond me that models in general want to go big fast ... when in actual fact they can have a steady income from doing a Sears, Target or JCpenny catalogue!!! am I missing something!??
