Depending on where you are, what type of models you will be needing, how many you need, and for how long they will be working, talent fees and agency fees may vary. Usually, models have their own individual fees, also depending on several factors like scope of work and their caliber.
The more popular the model, naturally, you should expect to pay more.
However, if you need a couple of models for the same project, you could try haggling for a packaged price or at least a percentage off their regular fees. Before signing the contracts though, make sure that you read them thoroughly especially the liability clauses.
Unfortunately, not all models are – pardon the pun – not on model behavior all the time so you’d best review liability clauses, including theirs to yours – to avoid any untoward incidences.
In addition, go for modeling agencies that are well-known in the industry. You can also get online and check out online portfolios. This will save you time while you’re still looking for the perfect models. Online portfolios are also better since some are actually interactive.
