Question
Hey:
I have always been told I have beautiful feet. Any suggestions on how to get started foot modeling?Thanks for your time Mitch Duke Wilmington NC
You could try a couple of things. One is to approach commercial print agencies in your area to see if they would be willing to represent a parts model. There are a couple parts agencies in the US, but generally a parts model may do other types of modeling as well, and as such would be represented by a regular fashion or commercial print agency.
The other thing you could try is fetish modeling or freelancing to find other (paying) clients who are interested in utilizing only the foot or feet of a model. There are numerous modeling job boards and places where you can post your information online as a model if you wish to freelance, as well as trade papers in certain (usually larger) markets in the US.
Good luck to you,
~Kitty

I can answer questions from those looking to get into the fashion or commercial modeling industry. Specifically, the requirements, what is needed, how to find an agent, what they look for, how to avoid scams, the difference between what a commercial model does, and a fashion model, would travel/relocation be required, what is on a comp card and in your portfolio.
Experience
Both my acting and modeling resume/portfolio is available online on my website. I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild, and also have available my actor's demo reel and voice-over demo online. I founded both the Florida-Models.com and Florida-Actors.com websites, which provide free modeling and acting info to the public. I have moved into directing, producing and screenwriting - and have won awards for my writing. I have worked in the industry as both a model and actress in Florida, New York City and Los Angeles until October 2007. I now reside in Europe.
