As an offshoot of the Baby Modelling thread here is the new and improved thread for all questions you may have regarding agencies, the industry or just to relate general experiences. The last thread is hereby laid to rest - it was 5 YEARS OLD! Jeez!

If you want to DEBATE or CRITICISE go to the "Child Modelling - Debate" thread.

DD,DS and twins have been accepted by EUROKIDS in Manchester the fees in total are £116 each. However i have decided to possibly try with DD before I make full committment for all my kids. Does any one know anything about this agency?? are these fees the going rate?
A photo shoot has been booked for next month, the other agency i liked was too far to travel and there does not appear to be much choice, another agency i tried wanted money up front( £50 admin) didn,t like the sound of that ?

Any advice welcome

very professional photos mykidsmum, much better than my snapshots!lovely kids

TwinGirls2003 · 31/01/2006 19:01

My twins aren't identical but have a very similar look/hair colour etc. It's actually my 5 year old whos registered with AK and has had the professional photo shoot with them (Can't wait to see the pic on the website!) but she hasn't had any luck yet. I'll let you know on Friday how it went - It's our first ever modelling job so it's all rather nerve-wracking!!

perfumelady · 31/01/2006 19:07

mykids your dd's and ds's are so beautiful see why they all do modelling ,what ages are they all, it's hard to judge. have you been with u/a for long

mykidsmum · 31/01/2006 19:13

7777777, I actually prefer snap shots you get a better feel for the child IYKWIM. The pics are their URban Angels shots which are very professional!!
