The essential, protective blueprint for teenagers navigating the highly competitive transition into professional modeling.

The shift into the tween and teen modeling years is a beautiful but confusing transition. It is the moment modeling stops being something that happens around you and starts becoming yours.

Why This Stage Matters

In the tween and teen years, the industry changes. Agencies look at you differently. They are no longer simply assessing whether you are cute; they are watching how you carry yourself, how you handle direction, and whether you are someone they can trust in a room full of clients.

This stage also brings new risks.

Young models may encounter social media "scouts" who prey on hope, high-pressure contract signings, and complex agency agreements they do not fully understand. Teenagers can also build digital footprints that quietly close professional doors before they even know those opportunities existed—or sign perpetual buyouts that surrender years of future residuals for a single flat fee.

What You'll Learn

Signed. Booked. Paid. Vol. 2 stands completely on its own as an honest, no-nonsense roadmap written specifically for tweens, teens, and their parents to read side by side.

Lonna Drewes—former international model, agency owner, photo production company owner, and mother of working talent—delivers a practical masterclass in modeling-industry business literacy.

Inside, you'll also find a companion workbook designed to help young models and their parents put what they are learning into action. With guided exercises, tracking pages, reflection prompts, and practical planning tools, families can document progress, prepare for agency meetings, keep important career information organized, and build stronger professional habits along the way.

A comprehensive glossary of modeling-industry terms is also included, helping families understand the language used in contracts, castings, bookings, usage agreements, and agency conversations.

• Understanding Representation: Learn what "mother agents" are, how secondary markets work, and the difference between exclusive and non-exclusive agreements.
