N.B. Please understand that many non-union agencies have practices specifically prohibited by the unions. Some agencies charge the clients for pictures. The Actor’s Handbook does not recommend that an actor ever pay the agency for pictures. Generally they overcharge the actors ( sometimes as much as $500 or $600 more than the cost of the photographer) Some agencies refuse to represent a client if they do not agree to buy their pictures from the agencies. The best photographers do not work for the agencies. Please look at the section for photographers in The Actor’s Handbook or contact SAG, AFTRA or Actor’s Equity (AEA) for a list of competent photographers.
