    hey this channel has helped me a ton, I wanted to thank you for posting these video's they are so helpful. I followed a lot of your advice. I now model with an agency in Denver Colorado. I want to move to LA to pursue acting and modeling to have more opportunities are there any good agencies you would recommend that do both at a high level.

Commerical print for example you can be any age since it depends on what the product is for the advertisements you are in. But I also don’t know the customs of where you are. I have done commercial print and also catalogue work in my 20’s and much older. Also, my son did several jobs as a baby and small child ex. The Gap, Old Navy, American Baby Magazine, etc. But once he got older he realized he wasn’t interested in continuing to do it. It’s not for everyone. lol
