Please do not waste your time going to McKenna Models and Talent Agency. They will tell you that they do not charge to represent you. Then they ask you to come to a presentation and if you do not purchase a set of photos (headshots) from them, they will not represent you. They charge 3 times the normal amount for photos. They ask that if you are an adult you pay $695 and a child is $595. If you have your own photos then they charge you $295.

This is a Big scam. Trust me that when you seek representation it is always FREE. You will need to invest in some kind of photo/headshot, but you can definitly get them done at a more reasonable price ranging anywhere from $50 to $250.

If your looking for reprsentation do your research first and look up (((Redacted))) Once you sign up for free you can visit different blogs and learn a lot about the film and acting industry.

Stay clear of McKenna Models.

A reputable modeling agency does not ask you to sign up for classes or purchase photos from them - They bank on your potential and sign you if they think you can make money for them period
As to the "mother" what a load - good luck when you get to LA -

McKenna Models and Talent is not a "rip off"

AUTHOR: Anita - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Tuesday, August 04, 2009

I am the mother of a child that McKenna Models and Talent represents. Las Vegas has an open agency policy that allows people to register with whatever number of agencies that they desire. For children there isn't that much work in Las Vegas and to be honest I haven't pushed for Las Vegas work that much.

I did purchase pictures of my daughter when I registered her with Jackie and yes, the price was high. However, I have spent much more than that getting my daughter prepared for her career. Jackie has booked my daughter so the price of photos has been paid, so I consider that even.

My daughter did Fusion and was picked up by a management company and we started our trek to LA weekly. Not once has Jackie not been there for me and my daughter when we had questions.

Jackie is a nice person and isn't out there to rip you off and Fusion is a possibility for being picked up but nothing is absolute. Either the agents/managers aren't looking for your type, it wasn't you day to shine or you just aren't ready.

Go with your gut feeling always in the entertainment business, if you don't like an agent then don't go with them. But Jackie isn't a "rip off".
