I want to move to LA to pursue acting and modeling to have more opportunities are there any good agencies you would recommend that do both at a high level.

    Question: you mention that you have a day job you balance with modeling. What role do you have that allows you that flexibility?

      In general runway models are very tall and thin. Ex 5’10” 120lbs. At 5’2” you could possibly do commercial print, body parts modeling ex. If you have very beautiful hand or feet, beauty modeling ex. If you have a gorgeous face, flawless skin, amazing hair for make up, skincare or hair products,etc. Good luck.

Commerical print for example you can be any age since it depends on what the product is for the advertisements you are in. But I also don’t know the customs of where you are. I have done commercial print and also catalogue work in my 20’s and much older. Also, my son did several jobs as a baby and small child ex. The Gap, Old Navy, American Baby Magazine, etc. But once he got older he realized he wasn’t interested in continuing to do it. It’s not for everyone. lol
