What the Industry Says About Us

Elite Model Management
Karen Lee

Our Talent Says...

Not only do they instill knowledge and experience with the trades, but they've also helped me find work in the field. More importantly, they've helped with my confidence in myself and my abilities, which help in my everyday life too. They're extremely active and attentive, and I've never had anyone try harder to help me succeed. Edmond H.

I love working with them. My modeling and acting teachers taught me so much more in just a few weeks than what I have learned for the entire time I was involved with John Robert Powers agency (and some other schools in Russia). They (JC) helped me with my photos and my resume so I could go out and audition being ready, confident and prepared. I thank them so much for what they have done for me!

The staff is so nice to you when you enter and leave the place, they have a way to make you feel comfortable all around.

Thao H.

The people there are awesome but most of all they have encouraged me to become more outgoing and not so shy.

dalia_r_copy.jpgOne experience that has helped me a lot was the Bridal Show at the Queen Mary, At first I was very nervous going down the runway, and scared of how people were going to react with me. But it turned out great, I had SO much fun, I met so many cool girls and guys, I got to wear beautiful dresses, and the best part was that I was the center of attention. When I was on the runway it was all about me! My time, all eyes on me.

Dalia R.

John Casablancas is the best! I love it... John Casablancas has helped me in so many ways. Thank you!
