I can't say enough wonderful things about this agency. They truly took a chance on me -- I'm older and shorter than the typical model -- and from day one they've been nothing but kind, generous, professional, and incredibly thorough. You can immediately tell they've been doing this a long time. Every single person I've worked with has been amazing -- Steve, Wendy, the owner Norm, Blake the photographer, and their artist Dana. They genuinely love what they do, and their passion shows in how much time they take to educate, guide, and prepare you for success. I'm so grateful for everything they've taught me and for the confidence they've given me stepping into this industry. I'm truly looking forward to a long relationship with them. If you're selected to work with this agency, consider yourself very lucky. -- Catherine E. read more

Putting yourself out there in the modeling world can be pretty daunting, but the team at Sunshine takes away the fear and replaces it with confidence. Steve, an absolute gem of a human, contacted me soon after I took the risk of sending some photos to Sunshine. Within a day, he contacted me and made me feel that the risk was worth it. Being a mature model, I knew that there was a higher risk of not being taken on, but Sunshine saw the potential in what I shared and took me on with open arms. Whether it's Steve, Wendy, Dana, THE Norm (what a treat it is to just visit with him!), or the beautiful and lovely Renee who takes care of her models in so many ways, you will not be disappointed with Sunshine. This team has been honest and upfront from the beginning, and best of all, they gave me the empowerment I was looking for to start a new experience in my already wonderful life. Thank you, Sunshine! I am looking forward to learning from you all and working with your company for many years to come. read more

Becoming at model in my mid-forties was a daunting task. After months of trying to get my foot in the door, hitting up every agency in the area, and being turned off by the price tag of the companies that wanted me to pay to get them to help me find an agent, I stumbled upon Sunshine Productions. I did what I had done so many times before and sent in my pics, stats, and a brief bio. Within a few days, I got an email from Steve saying that he liked my look and loved my writing (of all things)! He wanted a little more info and passed my file on to Wend. Wendy called and was an absolute doll! I don't know what happened first - I sold her on me, and she sold me on Sunshine! But then I had to wait and see IF the owner, Norm, was going to be interested. I was on pins and needles but only had to wait a couple of days. Norm called, and we had an instant connection. I knew that I wanted to work with Norm and his team - I was confident that they would take care of me, and they certainly have. From hooking me up with an incredible photographer for my portfolio (shout-out to Blake Clifton) to having the masterful Dana put the finishing touches on my portfolio and getting it posted within hours, the process has been easy and seamless! Now I am officially a model with Sunshine Productions. What was just a pipe dream a few months ago has become a reality, and I am so grateful! They are kind, knowledgeable, dedicated, and most importantly, they treat their models with dignity and respect. read more

My son started modeling growing up in San Francisco. Now that he is attending college in Dallas, he wanted to start modeling again so he researched the top 3 agencies in Texas and sent his bio and some recent photos to Steve at Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency. Steve responded in less than 24 hours and within 3 days, we had met separately with Wendy and then the owner Norm who quickly set my son up with an amazing trainer/photographer, Renee Tacheny, for a photo shoot. As I am in San Francisco, my son prepared for and went to his shoot solo. I am so grateful for Renee, who welcomed him with open arms and trained him and took fabulous photos of him. Her motherly touch speaks volumes about her character and passion for what she does. She took the time to help him prepare for the shoot by providing professional guidance with his wardrobe and prop selections. The day of the shoot, Cole woke to his car being broken into and steering column striped. We called Renee to inform her that Cole would be delayed as he needed to procure another mode of transportation and she instructed Cole to take a deep breath and arrive as soon as possible but not to worry. On the way there, as luck would have it, he got a flat tire! This bit of luck seemed to bond Renee and my son, as despite the rough start, they had a fantastic shoot that yielded photos for a featured portfolio online. My son's portfolio was online in less than 3 weeks from initial email sent to Steve at Sunshine Productions. This is a testament to what a tight knit group of caring individuals Sunshine Productions is and how their professionalism, attention to details, and wonderful support are a recipe for success. Kudos to the entire team! We are so appreciative. Every step of the way was professional, timely, detailed, and made my son feel appreciated and cared for. We are so ecstatic to have found an agency who takes their models in and treats them with dignity and promotes them, while providing them expert guidance and feedback. Thank you Sunshine! read more

We I decided at 41 years old that I wanted to try modeling, voice-over, and eventually acting I got lots of laughs. I heard all the horror stories about people being taken advantage of and how no one in that industry is honest and blah blah. I'm not saying that doesn't happen, I am 100% sure it does but it did not with me. I found Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency in a basic google search "Top Modeling Agency near me". They were at the top of the list. I printed the list and started going to websites to see what they were about. I had that you will get hustled in the back of my head so I wanted to look at everything. Started at the reviews then went to the websites and just started looking. Sunshine Productions had the easiest website to navigate in my opinion. Everything was straightforward. I sent in my submission like I did with the others and that was that. I received an email back from Steve pretty quickly. He was fantastic. He made me feel like I mattered and he would do whatever he could to help me out. He was straightforward about me and my size. I'm a big boy and I know it. He told me what was what and we went from there. You will notice that amazing, honest, straightforward, and people that make you feel like they care are going to be a common theme as you read this. He sent my stuff to Wendy who contact me again in a very quick and reasonable period. We spoke on the phone and it was a pleasure. She walked me through what would happen next. How they handle things. She made sure that I completely understood what would be required of me and what that entailed on their side. Super sweet. Would constantly make sure I understood. She asked me several times if I had any more questions. Again, I felt like she cared how I was as a person regardless of whether I decided to move forward. I then got with Mr. Norm Sunshine himself. How often can you say you talked to the owner of a company on your third encounter not only does he know your name but he already has a plan for you to be successful. Not a cookie-cutter speech that you can tell is rehearsed and they tell everyone but a for me paint by the number you need to do this, that, and the other. Mind you this is from a guy whose dad founded the company in 1953 so needless to say if he tells you something it is golden. He then again went over the process. Made sure I knew exactly what was required of me. Made sure I had no questions and then told me he had the perfect Photographer/trainer/coach. This brings in Miss Renee. I have done a lot of classes, camps, team building, and instructions on all kinds of things. You know when you have someone who is a master at their craft and when you have someone that is just good. Miss Renee is a master. The amount of information she gave me was amazing. The way she picked up on how I learn and then just shifted the instruction to that style was priceless. She was very honest. She was very straightforward. She made me feel comfortable. She made sure I understood industry standards on command words, body angles, and what would help make me stand out. She had examples on site that I could look at and see what she meant. When we were done she gave me homework, with again examples and timelines on when I should be. She gave me tips and tricks on skincare and things I just didn't know anything about. After the session with Miss Renee, I got some more one on one time with Norm. We went through the pictures that we were going to put into the portfolio. It was very cool listening to him and seeing why he picked what. He would always ask me my opinion first then tell me his. It was a very good learning process. He sent my stuff to Dana. I haven't met her yet but after seeing her work my goodness I can't wait. Flawless is all I can say. For someone, I haven't personally met yet she sure did make me feel special with all the time she spent on me. I put a link below to the finished portfolio. Go check it out and you tell me I'm wrong. She is awesome. https://sunshineproductionsonline.com/portfolio.php?type=men&id=227 I finished this process by going back to Norm and going over every little thing you could think of when it comes to working together. He made sure I understood. I was happy with everything and constantly asked if I had questions. In closing, I know people have had bad experiences in this industry and I'm sorry that happen to y'all. I also know there are people like me out there that don't know anything about anything when it comes to this industry but wants to give it a shot they just don't know how to. If that is you in either case give Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency a shot. It's the reason I wrote such a long review breaking down my process. I want everyone to be the best you that you can be. If you want to be in this industry in this area, I don't think you will find a better team to become a part of. Tell them Paul B sent you. read more

I contacted this agency on behalf of my 15 year old daughter. They reached out and were very interested to bring her on. I talked to Wendy who explained everything very well appropriate manner. She was telling me the types in modeling they offer and leaving what was not for her but for adults out stating that wouldn't be for her, and left it like that. Then she passed me on to Norm the owner. I talked to him maybe 3 to 4 minutes into the conversation he starts saying " when she is 18 she will have more jobs, she can even do porn" when I stated that was completely inappropriate to say in the presence of a minor. All he did was keep bringing it up in different ways until my husband who was present the entire time came in and spoke to him about it. Then that conversation completely stopped in that topic. This made my child feel very uncomfortable and said she was grossed out and completely disturbed by the conversation, as she should she is 15. Then after some more explanation on how the industry is he was asking my husband "how would you react if your daughter was changing and a client walked it? " this is completely inappropriate and unprofessional. If you having clients that do that when they know children are changing they need to be reported and dropped by the agency. Your models safety and comfort should be your first priority as their agent. The only reason I gave 2 stars is he did give us some valuable information. We will be staying away from this agency... read more

We had a great experience using Sunshine Productions for a marketing photoshoot for UT Arlington Housing. From the talent coordinator, the marketing director and the models themselves, everything worked great! We were very pleased to also speak with the owner after the shoot to make sure everything went great! We had an out-of-the-box request for the Agency that involved a lot of moving parts and attention to detail. The talent coordinator went above and beyond for us to get everything scheduled and was very responsive and attentive to our needs. Working with the models on the photo shoot, we were blown away with their experience in working with us. We asked one of the individuals how long he had been doing it for (as he was great) and he said it was his very first shoot. We couldn't believe it with how great he was (and everyone was). They were well prepared, organized, and attentive. Our photographer (who works with many professional organizations in DFW) was blown away by the talent and we both greatly enjoyed working with Sunshine Productions. I do not hesitate, or say it lightly, that we will be sure to use this agency again in the future. read more

Since coming on board with Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency, I've had nothing but a great experience with everybody. From Steve to Wendy to Norm(owner) and our photographer Renee. Everyone has been so helpful and nice. Renee showed my daughter how to express herself and open up and Renee was sweet as could be. My daughter Zoey and I are excited to see what the future brings!! read more

Thank you Norm, Wendy, Steve and our photographer, Renee, for such a first class experience. Extremely pleased with our experience working with Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency. Very refreshing to have EVERYONE we worked with be professional, honest, timely and sincere. Our daughter, Hannah, has been wanting to try modeling for a while but we (her parents) were hesitant to allow her. Norm (owner) spent a generous amount of time explaining the business of modeling and setting clear expectations for all parties involved. We feel very informed and confident moving forward. Looking forward to the future . . . read more

Norm at Sunshine Productions was very to easy to work with. Amanda, the model we used was fantastic too. She showed up on time, and had all the info ahead of time on what was asked of her. Researching and booking was easy and their response time was great. Overall, I am very satisfied with the experience and would use Sunshine Productions again and definitely recommend to anyone looking for models in the DFW area for shows, conventions, selling appointments, etc. Thanks Norm! read more

My goodness!! Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency is top notch ! I submitted my daughters photos (Corissa) and information Steve got back to me rather quickly with such positive feedback and a knowledge base of the modeling world. He made me feel right at home being a neophyte and what all the steps are in this process and what was next. It was a meeting with Wendy. She too, was very positive, sweet, kind and answered any questions I had. The next step was for the owner, Norm Sunshine, to see if my daughter was a match for them as well as us. I had an incredible meeting with Norm regarding what to expect, costs and the process for commercial modeling because this was all new to me. He was kind and understanding and funny too, I couldn't have been happier with our meeting. NOTHING was left out. The last step was the photo shoot & lesson with Renee. She was unbelievable with my daughter. She took her time to really explain what will be expected during a shoot. We had such a positive and wonderful experience with the entire agency from start to where we are today. I can only expect more positive interactions with Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency. Corissa's portfolio is up and we are currently waiting for the clients to select her. I highly recommend Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency to anyone especially those without any experience! read more

My daughter Cailin is a newly added model and 5 stars is not nearly a high enough rating for this business! Norm Sunshine, the head of the business, called me several times just to walk me through the ins and outs....even skipped lunch to fit me into his busy schedule! They treat you like family and it's easy to see why this is the highest rated modeling business on the BBB. They immediately got us in with their photographer Renee who not only takes terrific portfolio shots but trains the models too! There isn't a single member of the staff that I talked to that I didn't come away feeling satisfied and valued. My daughter and I couldn't have been happier with the whole process! read more

We have had an amazing experience with Sunshine so far, and it is because of the people who run the place. As a parent, I was hesitant to let my daughter begin modeling, as my cousin modeled in New York at 15 years old and had some crazy stories. I am happy to say Sunshine has made us feel safe, and they walk you through each step of the way. And they hooked us up the photographer Renee, and if you ever get a chance to work with her, she is superb! After working with this agency, you can see why they have such high ratings. They know what they are doing. read more

Norm at Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency found me a top notch trade-show model at the last minute when my original model cancelled on me the morning of the first day of the show. The model that worked with me (Korina) was excellent. Korina is very professional with a great personality. She attracted potential customers to my booth like a magnet. Thank you for the help. read more

My hesitation about allowing my 6 year old son to model was totally put to ease when I came into contact with Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency. From my initial contact with Steve via email, then with Wendy and Norm (the owner) via phone calls and Renee, photographer/trainer, our experience has been completely exceptional. They are honest, communicate promptly, provide great feedback and along the way, try to educate you on how the business works. I would highly recommend Sunshine Productions Modeling Agency to any prospective parent or model who wants to work with a great company. They truly have your best interest at heart. read more

My son is brand new to the modeling world and we had no idea what to expect. Working with Norm, Wendy and Renee at Sunshine Productions has been not only seamless and straightforward, but has also been a very positive and educational undertaking for my son. Wendy was our first contact with the agency and gave us a lot of good information upfront, which really helped us with expectations. Renee was our photographer/coach and was very warm and gave my son invaluable information and even gave him homework! Lastly, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of time Norm Sunshine, the owner, spent with us. From walking us through industry basics, personally helping us select the best photographs for the portfolio, to giving my son tips and advice if he gets called for a job, it was refreshing to get that kind of time investment from an obviously very busy owner. It is my hope that my son is successful and continues a long partnership with Sunshine Productions! read more
