Our family traveled to the Millie Lewis Actors Models
and Talent Competition as part of the Models
and Images group that competed in Orlando, FL in 2004.
It was a wonderful time for all of us. Andrew was very busy
in the various competitions as were we all in making sure he
got to them on time, made sure he dressed and groomed appropriately,
etc. It truly is a professionally organized and top-notch organization,
is very safe and highly family oriented. The experience was
a once in a lifetime one, and an excellent growth experience
for the boys. It matters not whether your child wins (although
that is an added delight and source of pride) in the competition
because they win through the opportunity. To use an old cliche,
it was a "win win" situation. We all were quite pleased
with every aspect of the trip and we would highly recommend
the opportunity to all. What made the difference for our group
was the extensive preparation given to the competitors from
Models and Images. When those children, and
adults, competed, their poise and confidence was so very evident.
We have Maryann VanSickle and the highly competent and motivating
staff of Models and Images to thank for that.
The people at Models and Images have a wealth
of knowledge and experience, know what to do and know how to
do it, and how to teach as well. This was quite apparent at
AMTC when over and over again the children and adults trained
by Models and Images were called up on the
stage to accept award after award. All we can say is WOW,
that was awesome! Many accolades and lots of thanks
to Models and Images!

Our daughter
and son have both taken classes at Models and Images.
Their classes are comprehensive and taught by experienced models.
Our son attended the Millie Lewis Actors, Models, and
Talent Competition in Orlando, Florida this past June.
We were impressed how the Models and Images models and talent
were very well prepared and professional. Our group as a whole
took many awards at the banquet, which reflects very well on
the agency. Maryann and her staff are very straightforward,
knowledgeable and easy to work with.

Our daughter was 5'8" in the 7th grade and was already
getting called "tall girl". Models and Images
put her in an environment where she was surrounded by confident
tall role models. In a world of fast food and soda pop, the
modeling classes taught her to take care of her body, inside
and out. Our daughter is having a blast with modeling. The trip
to Orlando for A.M.T.C. was great. There were
classes to attend to learn more about the industry, which were
very helpful. We especially appreciate MaryAnn Vansickle's knowledge
of the industry and her honesty in regards to appropriate expectations
for our daughter.

As a 10-year-old Riley was shy and quiet, but Riley's personality
unfolded as she gained self-confidence thru the classes at Models
and Images. Now as a 14 year old, after spending 4
years in modeling classes at Models and Images,
Riley is great on the runway and in front of the camera. She
has had a wonderful experience with all of the instructors and
MaryAnn Van sickle, Director of Models and Images.
Riley is now signed with Elite. of New York,
which never would have happened without Models and Images. Thank
you MaryAnn and staff for always being there for Riley and for
us.

Models
and Images has been a very positive influence in my daughters
life. She was a shy quiet girl until she became involved with
Models and Images. Now she is outgoing and has traveled extensively
and is discovering herself and the world! She has learned poise,
confidence, and self-promotion. What we as a family have gained
from our involvement with Models and Images has far exceeded
our expectations.
Maryann knows the business, sees potential, and can recognize
talent. She is an amazing teacher and promoter to those interested
in this exciting business. Even if our daughter never becomes
a famous model or actress what she has gained she will have
forever and will prove beneficial in whatever she chooses to
do in the future.
