These people approached my niece at the Pallisades mall! She looks nothing like a model, is short and nothing special looking about her, but she can sing. They told her that she can be a model and that they can help her with her singing after she gets photos done.
They harassed to make an appointment with us, so we finally went in and there were a lot of girls there, some were alright looking and then some were just ugly. Nothing special, even looking like they are on welfare or something. So we meet with a director there, Grace and she talks about how they can promote my niece and market her to agencies, but she has to take photos. The prices are ridiculous, after charging a price of $1200 for 3 looks and only 72 pictures, we told her that's too much so she brought it down to $850. Still too much, but my niece is begging that she wants to do it.
Ok, so we have a Sunday appointment. We thought that we would have special time for ourselves, but it's a madhouse of people and only 1 makeup artist, then a second one comes later after there are about 8 people waiting. The makeup and photography people are nice, but it's a rushing process.
Anyways, we saw the pictures and they are nice, but we haven't heard anything from the agency. They took our money and didn't even give us a list of the agencies that they were sending out photos too. They just give us the cold shoulder now and our money is gone!!!
