should i trust this modeling company??

The company is Manhattanmodels.com I found them on Instagram they told me I was accepted but was shortlisted due to my age which I'm only 24 and that I would have to come down to the studio in Manhattan for a photo shoot and pay $50-100 dollars

To ensure attendance, a fully refundable booking deposit of $50-$100 is taken at the time of arranging the appointment. This is then refunded back to you as long as you attend the test-shoot. The deposit is only lost if 1) you fail to attend or 2) if you are more than 30 minutes late to your appointment. Please note that this is non-negotiable & no exceptions will be made.

You must attend the test-shoot as a blank canvas i.e. clean hair with no styling product and no makeup. Hair, makeup & styling will be done professionally on the day. We also recommend bringing along a minimum 5-7 outfit changes. The more variety the better. When you arrive for the shoot, the stylist will style you with the outfits that you have brought alo

If you really wanted to model find a commercial photographer and and meet with them or their rep and give them a few shots and a business card. Work for a small wage they have to budget too.

If they wanted you they would pay you.

Agreed with the others; if you're giving them money to "audition" it's likely a scam. A company that wants you to work for them will invest in you, not the other way around.

The only reason you should be paying a modeling agency is if you're a casting agent looking for a model.

It is a scam .... I would not trust them at all. No reputable modeling company would make you pay money for a portfolio.
