I Dont Want To Model In NYC

By bobpardue

I have written many articles and ezine inserts about how to find and market yourself to the “big guys”, namely the NYC modeling agencies. And, I still feel this is the way to go if you plan to be the next top model like Tyra or Cindy.

 

With that said, here is a different twist with a question from a model who does not want to move to New York in order to get into modeling. A valid question so I’ll try to answer below …

 

From the Model:

 

 I’m sorry but I cannot go to New York City where all the other Fashion Models and other people are there but I’m definetely stuck here in Utah forever.

 

I’d probably should lose this whole Modeling Career and start a new one, I think.
   

 

And these certainly are my concerns of failing my dreams.

 

Do you know if there are any other ways to get contact of one of the modeling agents and agencies, please, all I need is help with my Modeling Career or maybe I can just wait until I’m done with my school and everything. Then maybe someday again I can get with you guys, hopefully sooner or later.

 

Yes, I’ll find Model agents, I’ll find good pictures of myself and how does the picture have to be or look like, exactly HOW?

 
 I can understand how things are working out on my Modeling Career but still trying to finish it through with all your informations and your help.

 

Answer:

 

Claudia,
 
As for pictures, you’ll want a good variety of looks and outfits. Your model portfolio photographer should be able to help you with this.
Or, you can contact many agencies with just snapshots although the professional photos look best.
 
In your 2nd email, you made a statement about traveling to NY. You can also find local agencies and maybe find work part time while finishing school ( I highly reccommend you finish).
This will help you improve your skills and let you see what modeling is all about.
 
Hope this helps.
P.S. Many of these questions are answered in my online book of modeling which you can read free when you subscribe to my newsletter. d:-)
 
Best,
Bob
