Question
Hi Kitty, I recently asked you about my 4 yr.old daughter going into modeling/acting.  You're answer was extremely helpful, however, I just found out that my husband's job is transferring him down to Portland.  Do you know of any agencies down there?  I appreciate your help.  BTW, the other sites were great!(even just for the info.)Also, do you know how to get her into the small, local, free magazines that they had out like at the doctor's office, etc.?(NW Child, Seattle Child, that kind of stuff?)  Thanks for all your help!!

Answer
You could try the following agencies - and perhaps they would know of an agency in that area who would represent children of your daughter's age:
  
Murphy Talent Group
3829 NE TILLAMOOK ST, PORTLAND, OR 97212
Tel: 503-546-8862

Ryan Artists, Inc.
239 NW 13TH AVENUE, SUITE #215, PORTLAND, OR 97209
Tel: 503-274-1005
http://www.ryanartists.com/

If you look in the front of the magazines you mention, you will find the information from the publisher which may include a URL, photographer information, as well as contact information to the magazine.  You can contact them and ask what agency or resource they use to obtain their models/photographs used in the magazine.
Good luck to you,
