I LOVE how she said "you're never too young to start modeling" bc I'm 15 and I plan to start getting more into it this summer but like I always heard you have to start super young.

[@emiliapol7508]

forgive me but because I am from Greece and they don’t have an img agency if I apply and if they accept me does anyone know how they continue? Do I have to go to Italy all the time, for example? because i do not know if i will have the money but i know it is a great modeling agency and it’s my dream to become a model

[@harshasingh6924]

Hi, Emilia. I think you just have to travel once in a while if you're modelling part-time but if you want to model full time, then probably move to the nearest city with a branch of IMG. Apart from that, when it comes to expenses, I think the agency can pay for you if you ask them, as a modelling debt, but once you start earning money with modelling, they'll cut that amount out of your paycheck. I am also hoping to get signed with IMG this year so I hope I'm right and best of luck to you and me too.
