Historically, aspiring models can find it challenging to know what to do or who to trust with regards to having a professional portfolio. photos, only to find that they didn't get what they needed. Many times they can be taken advantage of by unscrupulous people, and pay big money for photos, only to find that they didn't get what they needed. And while a professionally styled portfolio is not an absolute must, it can be a great help for new talent to feel more confident on casting calls.

We had SO much fun working with Keen's local talent, that we've offered to team up for future shoots at the studio. Keen will be advertising upcoming casting calls in the Minneapolis/St Paul area, and Grinkie Photography and Studio 210 will be working to create affordable, professional starter portfolios for the models.

One advantage to this partnership is that we can utilize our experience with fashion and senior portraits to give aspiring talent of all ages high quality images to help them on their career paths. And our senior portraits get the advantage of our partnership with people who are on the cutting edge of the fashion business.
We'll be posting updates to this story when we have more information about casting calls. Until then, we'll keep a Keen eye out for our model friends!
