I'm interested in getting my baby into modeling. I'm having difficulty find reputable agencies though. From what I can tell, it's advised that you not sign up with anyone who wants money or a subscription up front. I'm having problems finding these. I'll get far into the process with an agency, with no mention of fees until they've agreed to represent you and after you've submitted pics. Anyone know where I can start?

What city/ state are you living in?
I modeled for 8 years. Yes, you are correct, not to pay the agency for anything up front & they only make a percentage(about 20%) of the work they get you after the fact.
With that being said.. the model typically is still responsible for a test shoot so they can put their comp card together. When I did it, the tests shoot cost $50-75 per roll of film(shot 3 rolls) & the comp card cost $100 for 100 cards to work off of until you built a book. The cards need to be updated from time to time. Depending on what type of modeling you did, you may have one card for say fashion, another for commercial work.
I would say to research what agencies specialize in babies. See if that have any open calls to meet with them or try to set up an appointment. The good agencies wont waste their time or yours "representing" you if they dont think they will get you any work. Sitting on their wall is pointless if you're not working.
