I am a working actor in Los Angeles, and knowing many people who are also aspiring on a budget, I found the LA Casting website and CastingNetworks.com to be unreasonable in their $50 service fee for a premeire photo.
Other online casting services such as Actors Access and Extras Access will give you two free photos with a membership and allow you to change or update the photos at will.
The main problem with Casting Networks and LA Casting is that they don't tell you about the $50 photo-change service fee until after you upload your main photo. So until they make their policy better, I strongly recommend you do NOT join the www.LACasting.com online network. If you do decide to do so, be very selective about which photo you choose to make your "premiere photo" unless you want to pay $50 fees every time you change your pic.
They also have a fee schedule you can view if you click on "change photo" in the online account setup. It all looks overpriced and very unreasonable. If people are paying these ridiculous fees, the account managers and owners are making a killing off of unsuspecting and ignorant actors, models, and aspiring artists.
Beware of LACasting and LA Casting Networks.
