FAQ

How do I apply to this agency?

You can apply directly through The Lions's form. Prepare natural, recent photos with no retouching. A serious agency will never ask you to pay to be represented.

Is this agency reliable?

The Lions is listed in the ModelGlance directory because I checked its contact details manually. No agency pays to appear here, and there are no sponsored placements. A directory listing does not replace your own checks: make sure the agency holds a modeling agency license, which is mandatory in France.

Do I have to pay to be represented?

No. A legitimate modeling agency is paid by its clients, never by the models it represents: it earns a commission on your contracts. If The Lions, or any agency, asks you for registration fees, a mandatory photo book or file fees, treat it as a red flag. Modeling is a profession, not a dream to be sold.

Which profiles does this agency represent?

The Lions represents women, men and talents. For the exact criteria and the kind of portfolio expected, refer to the agency's official website.
