Where are you finding your models from?

6 years 7 months ago #542433 by Rob Cline
I'm working on my portfolio and want to find some various 'looks' that I can photograph to use in portfolio.  

Is there a site that has a search tool that allows me to find different types of models for hire?

For a lot of towns there will be a Facebook Group for aspiring models and photographers. A big city may have several of these.
