Hello, my name is Jennifer. I have been a freelance model for over a year now and looking for an agent. If anyone has any advice on agents or knows one please feel free to reply. I have applied to several local agencies and it is really competitive. Is determined to keep getting modeling work through freelancing though it has been slow this year compared to last year.
Any advice on how to get an agent helps, if you are an agent, or if you know one, it would be appreciated to please look at my profile.
Thank you for your time.

It's only you and several hundred thousand others. Read above and do the research. There are very few photographers and models here who do work with agencies. And real agents seldom inhabit these parts and anyone that tells you they are on this site are likely not real "agents".

Unless you are absolutely marketable or have really outstanding talent, it will be difficult. And then even getting an real agent isn't a guaranty that you will get work.
