Carolyn's is recognized as one of Toronto's top Model & Talent Agencies. We represent Union and Non Union members, Such as A.C.T.R.A, U.D.A., S.A.G. We have been in business now for over 18 years and the president of Carolyn's, Carolyn Nikkanen has been working in this industry for over 40 years.
The truth is that Carolyn's is not necessarily a "hoax." I know friends of frends who are a part of this agency and they have gotten both auditons and jobs. However, they do try to take as. uch money from you as they can. I thought I would see this agency for myself and I sent in my headshot and received an email looking to set an appointment. Once I got there however the woman hardly asked me... more

Carolyn's has been awesome for me and my daughter! They do ask for a fee upfront, but it's not thousands (which is what scams ask for), its a couple hundred.

We went to an open call today at Carolyns Kids. The staff are nice, but regardless of what any of the pro-Carolyns' have written - the baby program is a scam. First of all, they obviously don't have many people doing the math when you figure they say they only take 4 children of each age category at any given time - yet they sign up on average 10 to 12 babies per week - that is 500 to 600 new... more
I unfortunatly stumbled upon this complaint about Carolyn's Model and Talent Agency...Which is completely wrong.
I signed with Carolyn's over 2 years ago as I am a actress/model. I have been scammed before by an agency that is now closed down (as scam agencies never last long, they take their money and run).
I went to Carolyn's after a friend suggested I try them as they have a good...

This young lady, is a disgruntled individual who does not understand how the industry works. An agency submits talent and models to clients and it is up to the client to choose who they want to book.

We signed a contract with Carolyn's Model & Talent Agency last year for my daughter. Basically we paid for pictures from their photographer. The pictures were horrible not even worth a $ 100 but we paid around $ 600. A similar thing happened with a friend of mine she paid the same amount for her daughter and some more money for the cosmetic products she was told to but for her daughter which... more
