They do not pay when they say they're going to. They'll tell you that your checks have been mailed out, then change when they were sent out until you give up on getting a dime. Complete and utter con artists that take advantage of local talent.

Everyone here was very nice but it's not worth the price. They charge you almost $2000 up front to represent you and they want you to do everything on site (headshots, acting classes etc). I went ahead and purchased headshots and I was not impressed by the quality or the editing. Long story short, I'm going to have to get them re-done by professionals and I decided not to go with this agency. I recommend you invest your money in professional acting classes, professional headshots and casting websites. You will get a much better value. A legitimate agency would not charge you upfront.

Was supposed to meet with them at 2:30 today however we wont be going!!! I spoke with a woman twice who wanted my daughter to meet with Lisa. I never got the supposed email they sent and after reading reviews and hearing this lady tell me Lisa will tell us what we need to get started I agree its a scam. Very unprofessional person who does their phone calls. I have been in the industry with my kids for 2 years. So I knew after the phone call how the person spoke it was more than likely a scam. You never have to pay anything up front to be in this industry!!! EVER!!!! My daughter is SAG eligible

I want to take some time to spot light About Faces Model and Talent Agency. I was with another agency prior too About Faces and found the difference between a caring agency and one just around for face value to be very night and day. I have found Lesa the owner to be extremely transparent and approachable, too include all of her staff. Mrs. Lesa maintains a high standard of operational conditions. The care and compassion she shows both Talent and Client is second to none. I would recommend her to anyone getting started, or just want a better experience.

My daughter found About Faces from social media and asked if she could submit to be a part of the agency. I was hesitant to agree at first but we are so happy we decided to go for it. She has previously done pageants so she had a small amount of experience being in front of a camera. However, during the interview with Lesa she explained the difference between modeling and pageantry. As a mom I'm so glad I signed her up for everything they offer, it's been a wonderful experience! She got her first opportunity to do a Six Flags commercial last week and loved it!

I just submitted an application and the front desk employee Kelly was so sweet and understanding! She walked me through the process and i felt an awesome vibe over the phone. This is my first time applying for a talent agency so I kept calling and she was very understanding. Hopefully I get a call but if i don't I'll feel much better knowing Kelly was upfront and honest from the jump.
