This is not a real agency. They just make photos of you, charging you $750 for them. They have a photographer, and a make-up artist. \r
\r
You are going to be convinced or brainwashed by Michel, one of the directors there to buy photographs. \r
He will show you different prizes, and the one that is $2000, he will say, ""Ok this one is $2000 porfolio, but I will give it to you for $750"" He also said, ""focus on the big picture, and you will see when you get your first paycheck"" VERY CONVINCING. Michel is a very good salesman, it can get into your head and push the shit inside you. I've never seen bigger manipulator, I just subconsciously take out my credit card to pay. I did not even think about it. It is like a hypnosis. This stuff is no joke !!! \r
\r
I paid for the pictures, I went to a photosession next week, I paid $750. After everything was over and I left the building, my inner voices in my brain was saying. ""You dump ass, why did you pay for this crap?"" or ""What the f**k, why did you get involved?"" I couldn't stop my inner bull shit for an hour, I tried to convince myself that I make the right choice. \r
\r
You are signing-up a photo agreement, which City Model and Telent have the right over your photos for 10 years. It can copy them, disctributing them and so on. Then you have to pay additional $500 to put the photos from the photosession into their website. \r

I've met Jacqueline Krentzel, she was calling herself Jackie. She is the president of City Model and Talent. She is the one that tried to sell the idea of uploading my photos for $500 into their website. Then they will create my customized profile for their clients. If I have a booked job, they will take 10 to 20% of the paycheck from the agreement you have with them. \r
She mentioned something about tax-free option. When I am involved with them, I do not have to pay any taxes, because it is considered a business. So I must keep all recepits from shopping and so on. \r
I did not pay additional $500. Nobody mentioned that I must pay additional $500. Nobody mentioned in the first place that I have to pay $750 for the photosession at the beginnning. If I knew, I wouldn't have come to their office. \r
Keeping all these facts in mind, make decision for yourself when you receive their phone call to go to their office in Long Island, NY. \r
Thanks for reading, \r
Hope this hepled. \r
\r
If you want to have your pictures on CD, you have to pay addidional $65 for the CD. So you pay like a dog in the first 2-3 weeks. \r
Oh did I mentioned that Michel also offered me their acting class, which is additional $900 for 5-7 weeks(Every Sunday).\r
\r
They are simply a business that make money from you, and NOT with you.
