HD, THE AGENCY

****HD, THE AGENCY IS SEEKING "TTP" MODELS/TALENT ONLY...MODELS UNDER 5'6 OR WITHOUT PROFESSIONAL QUALITY PHOTOS/PORTFOLIOS WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED WHATSOEVER****

As President and primary, licensed agent for all currently depicted and soon to be models/talent of HD, The Agency, I act as the M to their Bond. We exclusively focus on working with beautiful & talented women that we believe possess the goods to make serious noise in the modeling & entertainment industry. We are motivated by women whom have exhibited and shown additional talents that will allow them to excel in life well after the bright lights, camera and action have vanished.

We love driven, focused and responsible talent…models that are on a mission and realize that sacrifice and education is necessary to expand out of the box that some genres of modeling can place you in.

Not only do we hold ourselves responsible for advancing the ambitions of our models/talent, we also hold our models/talent accountable for developing & advancing their own careers and ambitions because without accountability there is no responsibility. In the end, all models/talent ultimately dictate their future paths.

HD, The Agency is not a model/talent 'management' agency. Please be aware of the difference between an 'agent' and 'manager'. Our PRIMARY responsibility is to seek bookings for our model/talents ONLY. We are not in the business of managing models/talent personal schedules or affairs. We develop 'partnerships' with our talent that will become an asset to both our agency and models/talent we represent. Trust, development and mentoring are vital elements of our partnerships. The protocol of these partnerships will achieve the common goals of both agency and model/talent.

We view our models/talent as equivalents to the infamous Agent 007. They approach their modeling endeavors as a mission with a sense of purpose, while at the same time maintaining and exhibiting the professional approach and attitude needed to succeed and be respected seriously as a professional model and as a human being.

HD, The Agency acts as their "M" by seeking, researching, negotiating and briefing our models/talent on all opportunities we find suitable for their talents and ambitions. We strictly abide by the philosophy that QUALITY is better than QUANTITY. The better 'quality' are models/talent are, the more lucrative and respectful opportunities will come their way. We'd rather seek and exhibit patience in booking QUALITY work for our models/talent than inundating them with opportunities that honestly, will do nothing to benefit their ambitions and advancement as a model/talent.

One question we're frequently asked is, "What type of talent do we look for?" Currently, we are primarily recruiting and developing talent that possess the versatile look, supreme confidence, advanced education & training, proper tools and savvy to excel within ALL genre's of modeling, be it urban/celebrity, high fashion, commercial, runway, spokes modeling, etc.

We are dedicated to the TTP's (The Total Packages), models/talents that are not only drop dead gorgeous, but also possess that 'X' factor that makes them a viable talent to ALL potential clientele. In summation, we seek to work with models/talent with potential to become the Best of the Best.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: If you're entering this game as a model/talent simply because you possess a desire to show off or become a socialite or celebrity, you need not apply to HD, The Agency.

If you're seeking an agency that will do everything for you while you sit around waiting for things to happen instead of making things happen, you need not apply to HD, The Agency.

And, if you're entering this game with no sense or essential understanding as to how professional models/talent go about business, you need not apply to HD, The Agency.
