I've gotten multiple emails from them. I'm not sure if I'd go so far as to call them a scam, but they're definitely a bit shady the way they try to sell everyone the same usless photo package.

I've heard good and bad... a good friend has some awesome shots that she paid big $ for... but they are useless with agencies... she is 14 and they make her look 20... lots of omp showcases for her, but very little practical use.

NY agencies have used 16 year olds for high fashion shoots...  They looked older than their age...

I know just who they are - I have talked to them a # of times.  I also know models that have shot with them; the models I know that haved worked with them seem to like their work & have gotten good attention from working with them.

Still, I know a large # of professional photographers that you can shot with & get great images from & still pay far less than what they charge
