Never modeled before? That’s most of our roster on day one. We train from zero — posing, walking, set etiquette, and directing yourself on camera.
Baristas, stylists, gym trainers, 9-to-5ers — if you’re 19–29 and serious about building a book, evening and weekend programming is designed around your schedule.
We keep active campus partners across Richmond and D.C. (VCU, UR, VUU, Howard, GWU and more) — but enrollment is a bonus, never a requirement.
Already building an audience? We sharpen your on-camera craft and connect you with photographers, stylists, and brands who need exactly what you make.
