Frankly, I am a little surprised. The James Patrick Photography blog has been live with at least one article (often two) going out each week for the past four years. The Pro Exposure podcast launched over two years ago and has more than 60 free episodes about how talents can advance their careers. It was over the summer that I launched the Fit Model Guide e-book on what fitness models need to know to get published.
However I am still getting the same questions almost daily. How can I get published? How can I pitch myself? How can I get commercial work? How can I submit to agencies.
We’ve created hundreds of hours of information for you to digest – it is there for you to use now. Dig through the blog, listen to the podcast, read the e-book. Take me up on these resources and show me that you’re listening.
But there is more…
The team is also expanding The Pro Exposure network to include new podcasts, articles and video features for our audience. Lastly, we are working on a live event which would include the information you as a modeling talent are seeking in respects to growing your career.
This is being done for you.

To answer your question in a single word: Yes. I purchased the “Fit Model Guide” several months ago and have studied it in its entirety, making notes and highlighting along the way. I’ve purchased several health and fitness magazines and read through them, making notes and taking down contact information. Most recently, I hired a fitness model that you shoot with regularly (and was just recently published!) as my coach as I continue my WBFF Fitness career. To those who may have answered “No,” their loss. And a likely reason why they are not published or are having such a difficult time. You can only do so much. Those who are successful in achieving their goals are so because they worked to make it happen and didn’t take a handout or make excuses. You can’t help those who won’t help themselves. Thank you for making available a wealth of information that enables us to pursue our goals in fitness / modeling / marketing / publication.
