JRP - Robinson, Pozozs & Associates, LLC You Have the Look, You are What we are looking for!! Photo Shoot included in contract San Rafael California

We called for an audition we saw on a commercial. We were told our daughter would be auditioning for a Disney Rep/Agent. She auditioned and of course we got a call back. We were told that our daughter had what it takes but needed fine tuning. Although our daughter wanted to do Print Modeling JRP said they felt commercials were the way to go and they could not only provide the training but would be having my daughter audition every week-end with a proffessional.

Another part of this $3000.00 dollar deal was photos. She would have a photo shoot with a world known photographer, and for a great price of $1250.00 my daughter would have a 5 picture Headshot/Comp Card package, they would provide around 200 photo cards and once we ran out it would be up to us to have more prints made and that we could easily go to kinkos printing and get it done cheaply.

My daughter has attended 8 out of 20 classes to date. WHAT A JOKE!!, they have not taught her anything about the industry. They have given a few handouts telling us what modles/actors should and should'nt wear, and how to apply lipstick. For $3000.00 you have got to be kidding. Oh but it gets better!

My daughter did go for her photo shoot, I will admit it was a fun Time for her. What came next however was shocking. The time came to pick her best photos, and to be hit with hidden charges. Although it is written on our contract that we have paid for these photos we were told we would have to come up with another $380 for the prints, we attempted to contact the person who wrote our contract, but it seems she has better things to do than return our calls. Of course when we contact the Photo Director she passes the buck back to the person who wrote our contract. Like how this is going? Now here is the real slap in the face. In talking with other Parents who have been suckered into this I came to find out that JRP charges on a sliding scale. The people who sigh you up for this nightmare must be very well rounded in reading money. One mother confirmed she only had to pay $800 for the same photo shoot Headshot/Comp Card package deal, and she also got a portfolio including 10-15 8x10 photos for an extra $100. When I asked I was told an extra $400.00. PARENTS PLEASE BEWARE!!!
