Photoshop–Friend or Foe?

There are many different types of Chicago modeling agencies– some that specialize in print, some in runway, and some, like Ocean Model Group, that specialize in trade shows and promotions.

With each Chicago modeling agency comes a different set of expectations and standards. As we all know, any agency working with runway models needs angular bone structures, lofty heights and small waistlines. An agency that works with commercial print, needs a model relatable to the masses, but able to communicate with the camera to achieve a desired feeling or look.

But our Chicago modeling agency looks for something different than runway or print models– what we look for are hard-working, reliable girls with natural beauty. For us, photoshopped head shots look great at first glance, but our industry doesn’t work that way; each of our models have to be naturally beautiful. Chicago trade shows and promotions are a person-to-person based industry. You may easily connect with a camera, but if you show up the next All Candy Expo with acne worse than a middle-schooler and sopping wet hair, that leaves a bad taste in everyone’s mouth.

Each Chicago modeling agency determines their own specific requirements to become successful within a given industry. Ocean Model Group asks for three things, natural beauty, killer work ethic and an outgoing personality. With these three attributes, you are destined to succeed within the Chicago trade show and promotional modeling industry.
