Commonly Asked questions:
Is this Agency affiliated with Wilhelmina NY, LA or MIAMI?
Yes, we are licensed agency and just relocated to Pennsylvania to start our Mid-Atlantic division. Please visit: http://www.wilhelmina.com/affiliates.cfm
Why such a big name company is posting ads online?
Everybody uses it, and… it works! In addition to radio, web advertising, scouting blitzes and events such as Philly Fashion Week, we have found posting ad’s online to be an excellent tool to recruit top talent. It’s great to feel skeptical, but we’re legit!
Do I need professional pictures?
If you have professional pictures, we will accept them, but generally we prefer Polaroid’s and snapshots because they are more natural. Have a friend or a family member take them of you. Color photography is preferred.
What if I have an agency?
Many different models from various agencies around the globe are represented by Wilhelmina. It is customary to have them contact us. If you have a “mother agency”, they must contact us in order for you to be placed here.
What types of models do you represent? Are there any requirements of the models?
At Wilhelmina, we represent all different types of professional models, in almost every age, size, and ethnicity. We limit ourselves to a specific amount of models in each category. The height requirement for female models is 5’8″ and above; for male models it is 6’0″ and above. We do have a Petite Models Division. Our lifestyle/commercial boards represent female and male models over 30. There is also a division representing children ages 0-12.
What if Wilhelmina is not interested?
Don’t lose hope! Your look or type might not work for our agency at this particular time. We encourage you to resubmit pictures after 6 months. If you are seriously interested in modeling, with hard work and persistence, you can find success!

do not sign with this agency. its a complete scam. they spend more time trying to find new people to sign than they do sending their new clients out on auditions.
i signed with them, paid the ridiculous website fee (AND they got half of my information WRONG) and the ONE THING they’ve sent to me was a NON-UNION, NON-PAYING BACKGROUND JOB on some b.s. GLEE RIP OFF. (do these agents know they don’t make money off of that? – probably not, they’re too busy looking for new talent)
every other agency i’ve met with (and i’ve met with the big names) have asked me what i want, where i want to go, where my interests are – wilhelmina in their egotistical offices just said “we want to sign YOU!!! you’re so lucky!!!”. not once did they ask me where i saw myself in a year, what my interests were. NOTHING!!!!! this agency is a SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i know, more than anyone else, what it means to have an agency interested in you. but this agency is a SCAM DO NOT waist your time. especially if you know you have talent. RUN!!!!
