I agree and will add that models shouldn't work booths for free either. Too many times have I seen millionaires taking advantage of young woman. Convincing them that it's "good exposure" Which is questionable to say the least. If a business owner has the funds, they should share the wealth. Now, if you want to help out a friend or someone you believe in, that's different. Because a friend would find a way to give back. Wise worlds sweet lady! Thanks for enlightening others :) Very well said Teresa!! I agree and will add that models shouldn’t work booths for free either.

Let your manager, publicist and/or agent know that you’re interested in being published and let them know where you want to be published - feel free to use the information above to determine your magazine of choice. Once they know where you want to be, let them devote THEIR time to getting you published - that’s their job. As a model, you need to dedicate your time to modeling, not chasing a tear sheet for which a true value cannot be assigned!! Take your time - you’ll get there.
