Tampa Bay professional model Lisa Marie Lowry at downtown Tampa back in 2003, during a model photography shoot for Independent Modeling. Our featured model is holding a model portfolio case of portfolio pictures, composite cards, business cards, a Palm PDA, and other career tools. Regardless of models being independent or agency-represented, they all need to invest in quality tools for their modeling career, and the investment into professional tools is never inexpensive, as you get what you pay for. Models will get out of their careers whatever they put into it, and the saying garbage in-garbage out applies. Models should not focus on saving money, but rather weighing out the value of the career tools which they invest in.

The agency way is no longer the only way of having a professional career as a model. There is no arguing against common-sense and proven business practices. Modern professional models think for themselves, network, and book work both as independent models and by using agencies as one of many sources of jobs. This is the future of the modeling industry.
