If you cannot find agencies in your area

It may be that they do not advertise in the Yellow Pages. Most legitimate agencies don’t have to and you have to become a detective to find them. For example, in your area, who hires plus models for the local flyers and runway shows? Call those stores/organizations and see if they will share with you where they hire from

Once you find the agencies, call and ask:

Do they offer an open call when they will see aspiring models OR do they prefer a photo submission by mail?

What is the agency’s criteria for submission?

What do you bring to the open call OR what do you send for a photo submission by mail.

If by mail, where and whom do you send it to?

Before going to an open call or mailing photos:

Put your name, phone number and statistics on the back of the photos that you submit. Also, never submit your original photos – you may never see them again.
