Southern Dymes

Speaking of modeling, we are putting together a new network of events to let new and experienced models alike hook up with photographers as well as get some images in exchange for their time. TFP is a phrase that is used often on the forum and simply put it means to "Trade Prints For Time". In some cases that will be Digital images on a CD instead of actual prints. Our events will allow you to come, meet and shoot with a variety of photographers of all skill levels from those that are just getting their feet wet to serious professionals. This I feel is important for everyone involved. You must start somewhere and it is easy to get burned by spending a lot of money to get images done when you may come and get some for free or better yet, get paid on occasion by photographers that may like your look. So, check us out, kick the tires and run us around the block a few times and take the plunge. Visit us often and participate in quality events, workshops and seminars. You may just gain valuable information about the modeling field. Our goal is to educate you as well as provide you will interesting locations for our events. If you have suggestions. I will be happy to consider them.Promotional Modeling includes work done at conventions and trade show events where models are hired as greeters at booths to hand out literature and handle promotional items such a hats and t-shirts, as well as to answer basic questions pertaining to when seminars or demonstrations are scheduled. The right model can increase traffic through a booth or store substantially. Through this type of work a model may be able develop contacts with the marketing people who work at the booths that may lead to future print work. She may have the opportunity to learn the customers' product lines and be considered an invaluable asset, often traveling (at corporate expense) to major cities for these companies when they are participating in a trade show. Promotional Modeling also includes passing out samples at cosmetic counters (often during the Christmas buying season) during special promotions arranged by companies.Sophisticated Modeling includes those models who defy the signs of aging and some, often veterans of the modeling industry, continue to model into the prime of their 30's and 40's. Our Sophisticated Division helps develop the careers of these more mature models ages 30 and above.Plus-Size Models are an increasingly busy category of models. Designers are finally recognizing the fact that the average American woman is a size 14 and can't identify with a size 6 model. Plus Models may be large-boned with broad shoulders and full hips and usually have beautiful, classic facial features.Header Banner Made with MyBannerMaker.com! Click here to make your own!
