I originally posted a great review, as most people do, for Jess and Sue Anderson, but I must caution you all to be very waryThey are very friendly people and SEEM to want to work hard for youMost of the reviews you read for them go for them something like this "Within the first couple of weeks under Jess and Sue, I got a job as..." I had the same experience, and so did my daughterWe were both awarded a commercial for [redacted] within weeks of signing up with Jess and Sue, so enthusiasm was ultimately high and we were asked by Sue to write a good review(For the others that wrote a review, did they ask you to do it as soon as they got you that first job, or did you do it own your own? I would guess you were asked to write the review and did not just decide to do it on your own.) This will only help them get money from others that would be swayed by their unfounded promises and positive reviewsPlease consider this review a dose of reality for their agencyA great review I originally wrote, that I was asked to write within the first month, is changed as reality became obvious We were promised to get a copy of the commercial for our portfolio and told that they would work hard for us to get more opportunitiesThree years later, that is still the only job Jess and Sue ever got for us and we never got a copy of the [redacted] commercialThey will tell you that the possibilities are there but its up to the Casting Agents to select youI agree with that, but why am I getting the same jobs Jess and Sue were supposed to be submitting me for that I never got and I am getting with my other agent We submitted for job after job, but never got anything from themWe did get a lot of work doing things on our own and with another, actually qualified and licensed agent, and we still get a lot of work from our other, now only agent Additionally, do not get Head Shots taken from Jess & SueThey charge times more than most other photographersThey give you the option to go elsewhere, but you feel pressured to get the photos done right then and there from them as you are signing the paperworkSince you are probably new to the business, you don't know how much Head Shots should actually costI thought their prices were about right until I needed mine and my daughter's redoneI got better quality, more dedication from the photographer, and all for about a quarter of the costSue will take your pictures in a variety of spots right outside their office buildingAlthough I will admit she is a good photographer and does well with the photos, there is no effort to be uniqueLook at the web site of photos they have posted, they are all in the same locations Overall, Jess and Sue are only looking to make a quick buck off of youIf you have the opportunity to go elsewhere, I would highly recommend avoiding themThey are scatterbrained and unprofessional, and in my opinion, scammersThey even kept calling our daughter Brynn "Brian" thinking she was a boy even after multiple correctionsJust look elsewhereSigning with Jess and Sue was a big mistake by my family, don't let it be a mistake for yoursWe lost so many opportunities being with Jess and Sue and wasted a few years of funSince distancing ourselves from Jess and Sue, we have have much more work and it is consistent

My experience with Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling Agency has been absolutely wonderful [redacted] and [redacted] are very caring professionals, who enjoy nurturing those new to the industrySince I signed with the agency months ago, I've enjoyed assignments with Baptist Health in Jacksonville, Publix Supermarkets in Lakeland, and the Palms of Largo resort communityThe [redacted] are very well-connected with the large corporations that need talent and with the other casting highly successful agencies, so your personal reach can be even larger as a client of Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling AgencyI also had a pleasant surprise this month when the Baptist Health campaign was renewed and I received payment again!! You can trust the [redacted] They are great encouragers!

WHAT A DELIGHTFUL AND PROFESSIONAL PLACE TO WORK WITH*** & *** ARE FRIENDLY,HELPFULL, AND WELL CONNECTED,THEY OFFER MANY OPP0RTUNITIES FOR WORKI JUST FINISHED A NATIONAL TV COMMERCIAL!!!!!

I started with the Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling Agency about a year ago
Since that time, I have had quite a number of opportunities for auditions/jobs but only do this part time
I have worked on La Voz TV show, Publix and Palms of Largo The process varies but basically, *** and *** use their contacts to secure jobs or auditions, they give you all the information; you go to the shoots, you collect the moneyI have made $100, $and $dollars and met interesting, pleasant and professional people It's a job, but it is a very rewarding and fun experience too; even the auditions The history of the Jess Anderson agency is inspiring and the possibilities are unlimited but there are no guarantees ***, *** and *** are very positive and personable and have handled every communication with a caring nurturing approach I applaud them and know that I certainly would not have had these opportunities without them Keep up the great work!

I have found that *** and *** ***, owners of Jess Anderson Modeling and Talent Agency have been nothing but nice and supportive to me starting with a quickly answered email and phone call on the same day of my inquiry! It has been a great and fun experience so far with themAnd I look forward to many more tooShortly after my composites were complete, I got an exciting call from *** about a principal role for a photo shoot with Publix, for a training program and what a fun photo shoot that was! They work hard at trying to get me jobs that fit my age and look, and am very excited for many more experiences!!
*** and *** are very experienced in what they do, starting way back with casting for the popular Miami Vice series, and up to present day with Graceland, Burn Notice, and others, also with ads for many different companies including Publix and Disney!
People say "Trust the pros" and that's what I plan to do with *** & ***!!

When I began a search for an agency, Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling contacted me immediately and we began a working relationship the next day. My grandson and I had our head shots done. They were brilliant and we both got multiple calls. My grandson worked for Disney and he did a music video, both experiences were valuable and the people we worked for were lovely. As for me, I just got a call that my commercial for Baptist Hospital has been picked up for two more years. I've gone on multiple auditions and the ones I worked were such fun. Dixie Paper was a two day commercial and the whole experience was fantastic. My ability to get work is solely dependent upon my availability. I'm doing this just for fun and it has been exactly that. [redacted] and [redacted] are delightful to work with and they never send a client on anything unseemly. They are about to expand their web base and I look forward to much more activity. Thanks [redacted] and [redacted] for bringing me into the business.

I just finished my photo shoot for The Palms of Largo by Jess Anderson
Modeling Agency.
It is not often to find colleagues the are willing to go the extra mile. [redacted] and
[redacted] were polite,patient and courteous. Their photo sites are always exclusive.
Both are genuine and set the standards for professionalism. I found my experience
fun and educational. I am so excited I can not hide it. this makes me want to know
what projects are next.
I wish them continued success.

Jess and Susan Anderson are truly fantastic, hardworking and uplifting individuals! Within a couple days of signing up with their agency, I received several modeling and acting opportunities including the opportunity to audition for HSN as one of their host! Just recently, I landed a principle role in a TV commercial for a nationally-known eye glasses company!! Modeling and acting gigs are still pouring in for me even though I haven't gotten around to taking an acting class like they recommended I do. I just received my composites and I couldn't be happier with how my photos came out. Sue did a wonderful job making me look like a supermodel! Since day one, they've been right by my side calling and emailing me new jobs. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking to get into the business. Thanks again Jess and Susan!

I originally posted a great review, as most people do, for Jess and Sue Anderson, but I must caution you all to be very wary. They are very friendly people and SEEM to want to work hard for you. Most of the reviews you read for them go for them something like this...

"Within the first couple of weeks under Jess and Sue, I got a job as..."

I had the same experience, and so did my daughter. We were both awarded a commercial for [redacted] within weeks of signing up with Jess and Sue, so enthusiasm was ultimately high and we were asked by Sue to write a good review. (For the others that wrote a review, did they ask you to do it as soon as they got you that first job, or did you do it own your own? I would guess you were asked to write the review and did not just decide to do it on your own.) This will only help them get money from others that would be swayed by their unfounded promises and positive reviews. Please consider this review a dose of reality for their agency. A great review I originally wrote, that I was asked to write within the first month, is changed as reality became obvious.

We were promised to get a copy of the commercial for our portfolio and told that they would work hard for us to get more opportunities. Three years later, that is still the only job Jess and Sue ever got for us and we never got a copy of the [redacted] commercial. They will tell you that the possibilities are there but its up to the Casting Agents to select you. I agree with that, but why am I getting the same jobs Jess and Sue were supposed to be submitting me for that I never got and I am getting with my other agent.

We submitted for job after job, but never got anything from them. We did get a lot of work doing things on our own and with another, actually qualified and licensed agent, and we still get a lot of work from our other, now only agent.

Additionally, do not get Head Shots taken from Jess & Sue. They charge 4 times more than most other photographers. They give you the option to go elsewhere, but you feel pressured to get the photos done right then and there from them as you are signing the paperwork. Since you are probably new to the business, you don't know how much Head Shots should actually cost. I thought their prices were about right until I needed mine and my daughter's redone. I got better quality, more dedication from the photographer, and all for about a quarter of the cost. Sue will take your pictures in a variety of spots right outside their office building. Although I will admit she is a good photographer and does well with the photos, there is no effort to be unique. Look at the web site of photos they have posted, they are all in the same locations.

Overall, Jess and Sue are only looking to make a quick buck off of you. If you have the opportunity to go elsewhere, I would highly recommend avoiding them. They are scatterbrained and unprofessional, and in my opinion, scammers. They even kept calling our daughter Brynn "Brian" thinking she was a boy even after multiple corrections. Just look elsewhere. Signing with Jess and Sue was a big mistake by my family, don't let it be a mistake for yours. We lost so many opportunities being with Jess and Sue and wasted a few years of fun. Since distancing ourselves from Jess and Sue, we have have much more work and it is consistent.

My experience with Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling Agency has been absolutely wonderful. [redacted] and [redacted] are very caring professionals, who enjoy nurturing those new to the industry. Since I signed with the agency 18 months ago, I've enjoyed assignments with Baptist Health in Jacksonville, Publix Supermarkets in Lakeland, and the Palms of Largo resort community. The [redacted] are very well-connected with the large corporations that need talent and with the other casting highly successful agencies, so your personal reach can be even larger as a client of Jess Anderson Talent and Modeling Agency.
