This list is divided between agencies that are based in the United States and those that are based internationally. When booking models through these types of agencies, you’ll make arrangements regarding the shoot with the model’s agent rather than the model herself. On the positive side, agencies are typically well-organized, reliable, and represent talented and experienced models. On the negative side, the rates for these models are generally higher than those of independent models. Often, there is also an additional “agency fee” that must be paid.
