Renek Gaszewski‘s Info
.
Back in 2000 I was working for a national photography studio a photographer and I was approached by a group of models and they asked if I could shoot their portfolios for them after work. Well the shoot went so well that I decided to contact other models and start working with them on their portfolios on a regular basis.
The thought of an agency had not really been in my mind until early 1996 when the models I had been working with asked me if I would consider starting an agency. I really have a young lady named Agnieszka in Biaystok, Poland to thank for all my success so far. In late 2000 after some well thought out planning Elegant Images Modeling was formed.
I had a rocky start as models hadn’t heard of my agency, and were reluctant to join. This was soon to change though as I entered the internet age. My site went online Sept 05, 2001 and was averaging about 30 hits a week. With the site up and my talent with computers, allowing me to design my own business cards I was on my way.
One of the first national models to join was a very beautiful girl named Lidia from the greater Silesia area. Then more national models followed and this helped build on my agency’s growing list of models. By the end of 2002 I had over 40 models, and my first client. 2002 was a good year with the addition of over 25 models, both locally and nationally. I have had a long climb up the ropes, especially considering my being an “online” agency. In 2002 we had booked over 500 jobs, and we hit over 2000 jobs in 2002.
This brings us to 2006. We now have 15 photographers working with us and over 100 models and our client list is in the hundreds!.
We currently work with over 100 models, both local, and national. We provide free photo shoots for our models, there are no long term or exclusive contracts to sign and the model is free to decide on any job offer presented to her with no penalties for turning down work.
We require our models to be professional, both in behaviors and in representing our agency. We require portfolio updates bi-monthly, and we ask that each model contact us weekly to keep us up to date on them.
Renek Gaszewski’s Studio is committed to helping models all over the world to get a chance to succeed in the modeling industry. We provide free listings for all the models on our site, and unlike other sites out there, we talk directly with clients and do background checks to ascertain the credibility of the client.
We do not imply nor promise any jobs at any time to anyone. As an agency we do work towards providing our models paying job offers. If you are interested in working in the areas of fitness, swimwear, lingerie, glamour, artistic, or adult magazine style work, give us a call today as we have immediate job opportunities.
