Agency Updates
I may seem like a little bit of a “two-timer”, dealing with all these agencies. But really all I want is to do find the best one before settling down; I want to find the agency that can make me a star.
-Still haven’t heard back from the super good one that’s highly selective, although it’s only been 6 days. I really hope to hear from them!!
-Got called in for a...

*keep them crossed*
Sent this snapshot to the scout I was supposed to meet at the mall (so that she would recognize me). We met, she told me about the agency, she snapped some photos. This agency seemed amazing to me! Here’s why:
They believe that models shouldn’t have to pay to build their book or pay for runway instruction, they believe that the agency should cover these costs. So rare for this...

Male Models To Die For
Oh who am I kidding…I can’t just name a couple. But here are some of my absolute favourites.
Simon Nessman. Beg to differ? Oh honey please…
Brett Kallio. I met him! That’s right ;)
Mitch Baker. Think Zac Effron only hotter.
When one just isn’t enough you have Travis and Jordan Smit.

Friends with Potential
Natalia. She seems to be really into modeling and has a lot of potential and that fierce look but I’m not sure if she’s the right height (I believe she’d be just pushing 5’8) or perfect measurements (slim but slim enough?).
Abby. Perfect body type and very interesting jawline and facial features.
Ruke. Straight like a stick and the sweetest personality in the...
*cross my fingers*
Meeting with another agency (which happens to be one of the top 10 agencies in NYC) that just sent a scouting agent to my city. They’re scouting the “Canadian countryside” in an urban metropolis. Will post update tomorrow.

Model Alliance
“MA has drafted a Models’ Bill of Rights that seeks reforms like transparent accounting practices from agencies and protections for models, such as no nude photos of those under 17.”
-Globe And Mail
Sweet. We now have a model alliance. Maybe that means I won’t be used as a mannequin for three hours at hair shows…
Also thought that taking nude photos of minors was...

Au Natural
Au natural. Just woke up, no makeup, hair is greasy. But this is me.
A meeting with an agency...
Yesterday I went for an initial interview at a local agency. There’s only about 4-5 agencies in my town and they all don’t have a lot of work.
I was drawn to this one…after watching Remodeled with Paul Fischer I went on The Network’s website to find that one of their top models happened to be from one of my city’s local agencies. I was under the impression that they...
Models I Love
Kim Mccullough. Simply exquisite with an incredible melange of dark and brooding + soft and delicate. She got to travel the summer after grade 11 so I hope I can be like her in that way.
Karlie Kloss. Just adorable and fierce at the same time. She became a supermodel at about 16 or 17!
Julia Dunstall. Such an original face, and from my home province :D
Karly Jansen. This girl is a year...
Welcome to My World
My name is Nicole Hammond and I’m a Canadian/Russian grade 11 student (or as Americans would say, sophomore) aspiring to be a professional model. I’ve done a couple hair shows here and there but my small city hasn’t allowed me to really make a break through. I dream of walking fashion weeks all over the world and being on covers of magazines. Don’t get me wrong: I’m...
