3D Agency had the pleasure of providing models for the Opening Doors fundraiser at Pit and Balcony to benefit the Underground Railroad of Saginaw. Iesha Chamness and Paige Lawson worked as users for the show and models for the live auction.
A few of the models from 3D Agency had the chance to meet with Steve Michael from Speed TV and shoot a promo for the Bay City River Roar. The promo may air in November when the Speed Channel is scheduled to air the F1 Champ Boat races.
3D Agency completed our first group portfolio shoot on May 3rd at the historic Schuch Hotel in Saginaw Michigan. The shoot was a huge success and the models that participated not only had fun but were able to get 30-40 images each to increase their personal portfolios.
The hair was provided by stylists from Attitudes Salon in Saginaw with make-up and costuming done by 3D-Agency co-owner, Debra Defoe. The Shuch Hotel proved a beautiful backdrop for the photoshoot and provided lots of opportunity for creativity for the photographers David Defoe and Alex Teselsky.
3D Agency is always looking for new models to work with.
This past Saturday we participated in a photo shoot put on my Rod Kassab for models to build their portfolio. These group shoots are a great way for models to build their portfolio at a low cost. Most of these shoots cost between $50 to $200 and have 3-5 photographers and make-up artists. Each model usually gets well over 50 high quality images for their portfolio.

At the age of 18 Debra knew everything and was ready to take on the world! She packed up her dented Pinto and headed to the booming fashion mecca of Cleveland, Ohio. (Actually she took the bus.)
Modeling is not an easy career. It is work just like any other job. It is work where there are thousands of people that are just as good or better than you trying to get the same jobs. The training she received well prepared her and gave her the edge she needed to compete successfully! It was still tough and nothing came free.
It takes a lot of work to build a portfolio. It takes a lot of work to market yourself. You can’t stop when you hear the word “no” - because you may not be what they are looking for at that time, for that shoot or for that product. You must be versitile! You must be driven from within! There is a lot of work in a lot of nitch markets that need you!
