The owner of i Model Management is unprofessional and has no integrity for what he does.
I know some other models and they have told me that some of the models on his board dont even live in Calgary or in Canada for that matter. They are models from other cities that he puts on his board. He has a few models that travel and all of them will tell you that they have had a terrible experience working with him - and only continue working with him because they are under contract.
Do not make this mistake - do not sign anything with this man. He will use it and hold it against you.
He claims to not charge models for their photos - but books them for photo shoots and has the photographer charge the model unreasonable amounts and then has the photographer give him the money. The majority of his board is MALE because he is Gay and uses his title as a "modeling agent" to round in young boys. The fact that some one would take advantage of this title is disgusting. He is the reason why people have such a bad interpretation of "modeling" and "modeling agencies"
He booked me for a job out of the city and then told me that if I didn't drive him he was going to cancel my contract. I got this message at 4:00 am after he was on a Coke binge and high out of his mind. He also told me that he would "sue" me if I did not listen to him.
I learnt that this is what he says to everyone. The reason he can even say this is because he slept with a Gay Lawyer and holds it against him. So this is his threat to everyone.
He would book me in for "Polaroid's" and have me sit at the agency for hours - gossiping and talking terrible about everyone else in the city. I learnt from this lesson - he spends so much time bashing other people in hopes people wont talk bad about him.
He has no money because he spends it all on drugs. He begs his models for money, and sells them his sob story. I have never met anyone that has been associated with him - and still likes him. Once you get to know him you will too realize that he is insane, and has a drug problem and this effects his professionalism. He is not all there.
After my horrible experience I never wanted to model again. SO dont let him ruin your dream of modeling - like he has ruined mine. Be very careful with who you sign with, because it could be the biggest mistake you have ever made.
