INTRO INTO MODELING WITH AMY SIMON



Hi, I’m Amy Simon and I’ve been a model and actress for over 25 years. I have worked on numerous commercials, infomercials, hosted shows, have shot countless print jobs, have recorded lots of voice overs and have had lead roles in films. Sometimes I have to pinch myself because I can’t believe I get paid to do what I love! I get to meet amazing people, travel to beautiful places, and create wonderful memories. I just wrapped on a film that will be coming out in April called, My Name is Melissa.

Some of the companies I have been fortunate enough to work with are: Disney, Wrangler, Walmart, La-Z-Boy, Garmin, it cosmetics, At&t, Carnival and Princess Cruise Lines, Bahamas Tourism, SC Tourism,NC tourism, Four Seasons Hotel, Garnier Skin Care, One Hotel, Westin, Food Lion, and many more. But when I was starting out at just 19 years old I was extremely shy and insecure. I honestly had no clue what I was doing and no one to really help me or show me the way. So, that’s why I decided to start offering workshops and coaching. So I can help others and teach them what I have learned over the years. I believe it’s never too soon or too late to get started so that’s why my workshops and coaching are for kids and adults.

The industry has changed over the years and is more diversified and that’s a good thing and it’s good time to get started. So come check out the workshop! Try something new, meet & great people, get some beautiful photos, and most importantly have fun! We will all learn and do this together in a relaxed, no pressure environment.  Invest in yourself you’ll be glad you did. I look forward to meeting you soon.
