There are only two.

The Kim Dawson Agency (Kim Dawson Kids) and The Campbell Agency.

She specified good, and credited.

I stand by my statement that there are only two that meet that criteria.

I'm not in this discussion...

But I have to say to Brad..."I need a sword" You have NO IDEA how many times a day I hear that from my son (who is 10) and now my 7 year old daughter!!! They are experts at making them now out of anything, especially aluminum foil. And my daughter hammers hers out. I think they are going to be metalsmiths one day. LOL!

Both of my kids are terribly photogenic as well, but modeling is that last thing I'd want them to get into. And only when they are old enough to make the choice.

That said, good luck!

I'll let Linda McAlister, Tomas Agency, Horne Agency, and Core Talent (just to name a few off the top of my own head) know how you feel.
