What makes this camp even better the inspiration behind it, as told by Karen Lee.
The inspiration of NY Model Camp came from a need for empowerment. I have worked in the modeling industry for 25+ years as a model and as Director of Scouting for several top agencies, Elite and Wilhelmina to name a few, and recognized that when young girls were empowered by knowing that modeling was creative as well as a real business they moved forward with confidence, fun, determination and integrity and their careers seemed to not only do well, but have longevity. There are thousands of beautiful and interesting faces in the modeling industry and what they learn at NY Model Camp gives them an amazing foundation to start their own business and be successful at it!Over 30 years ago I worked at and was inspired by Kay Mitchell, President of "Camp Model" and was determined to start a current Camp for girls and women who wanted to be models or for girls and women who wanted to empower themselves with tools that they can utilize in any walk of life. Karen Lee Group and Shawn Ehlers Photography joined forces to make NY Model Camp a Reality!
So if you are 13-20 years old and starting your modeling career then you should defiantly attend this camp. The Insider tips alone makes this experience priceless.
