Craze Talent Agency Aka Premier Photography Do not use or pay for their reccomended photographer Sandy Utah

Craze Agency and Premier Photography are owned by the same owner-Troy Lee. They have an office in Sandy, UT and opened one up in Boise, ID. When the agents "interview" you to be "accepted" by their agency, they really just accept anyone as long as they can pay $300-750 in photos. They pretend that they are reccommending you a photographer who is good when in fact it is the only photographer they use and have. The photographer shoots the aspring actor and model in Craze Agency's office because they do not have any other locations or offices. The photographer-Matt Paepke has had many sexual harrassment complaints to the agency and the agency continues to use the same man because he is cheap to them and they (Rosie Anderson & Troy Lee) are making hundreds of dollars and only give the agents-(photosalesperson) an 10-11% commission, which is not much at all compared to what they are making. I hope the women who were mistreated by this photographer press charges against the agency to prevent it by happening again. The make-up artist that you are paying for also is not a professional make-up artist, it is just someone in the office who works there trying to make more money than just off of the photos. The agents there are not really agents. They are people off the street who get trained to say they are agents when really they just sell the photos. The only agent there is the owner and he just emails casting notices. Be aware to not use their photographer and not pay this agency anything. Be also aware not to work for this company-they make you work full time in their office, answer phones, file and still just get paid from your photosales. The most important and illegal thing is that they pay you as an Independent Contractor. I worked for this company at the age of 19 being manipulated and told I would be a talent agent. I finally called it quits when they were stealing my commissions from my paycheck and realized I was just a photosalesperson.
