Lesa tells infinite lies. Be wary of these 5 star reviews. I've never been told so many lies by someone who is actually in business anywhere and hasn't gone completely bankrupt. I am flabbergasted & gave her a million chances to make it right, but she does not see us as valued clients. All she sees are cash cows! Do not fall prey. To start, I have been repped by an agent previously. in ONE month, he had me meet far more potential casting directors for commercials & modeling than she did in over a year AND I didn't pay a fee with him. Period. What I believe this woman needs is a class action lawsuit and no I'm not kidding. Let's start from the beginning. She responded to my app, went into office. She gives everyone the same song and dance- we just booked this person for this much money, and this for that and blah blah blah. The first lie is wildly overpromising implication that you will get bookings like this. Exact percentage unknown - assume 90% of you won't. She is not discerning in who she chooses to bring in as long as she can get her money from you. So, I asked multiple times - do I need the acting classes to get booked. I do not live anywhere near here and would like to use this money to take acting classes elsewhere. I told her this over & over. Every time she said no- you don't need the classes. She implied that I would see similar demand and bookings. She also told me that this money goes to the teachers. Sure, I'll bite. Maybe some of it does, but how much do you keep, Lesa? And don't lie... it will be hard for you. So, if you're part of the (exact percentage unknown- assume 90%+) of people who pay the $2K+ and never even get close to making this back, you aren't alone. Another lie - I wrote a review to this effect previously. She IMMEDIATELY sent me a text. I deleted it and thought maybe I'll give her another chance. Her canned lie is that her receptionist/admin saw the review and told her about it. FAT CHANCE- the review was up for about 15 minutes and she texted me literally right after I posted it. Ok, fast forward- it's been over a year and I can count on one hand the number of times I've been contacted about even potential prospects. So, I asked for a refund for the acting classes I never took. Goes to teachers, right??? Ok, so she pretended she was going to refund the money, but then quickly reneged. I don't mind paying for Tom Logan or the headshots, but I never took the classes. If your teachers are paid out of this money & you give any sh*ts about your clients, you'd refund money for classes I never took. So, she said it would come out of her account, etc. So, I said yep, I'll take the refund as you've had OVER a year to contact me with any gigs so that I could WORK and make the money back. Please note than one gig was booked for $75- enough for gas money and lunch what a joke. Ok, so, I think she's going to make this right and refund the money for acting classes, BUT SHE DOESN'T.. she starts sending me random bookings for other people and a bizarre one text about prom & all this random garbage. Yes, Lesa, I'm sure you book your top clients with gigs... Is it about 2%? But, a solid majority of her clients will NEVER and I mean NEVER get close to making that money back. What else? Oh, she said she wouldn't be in business for 30 plus years if it were a SCAM... beg to differ here. Jeffrey Epstein was in "business" for decades without getting caught. Since what you're doing - preying on the aspirations of young aspiring actors and models for a fee, you will fly under the radar. So, yes, I absolutely believe you'd still be in business even though most of your customers get metaphorically screwed. Did I mention I'm in sales? I've had to refund fees - even if the fault was not my own to keep the relationship in tact. As we all know, actions speak louder than words- the fact that she won't refund my money for acting classes never taken (oh, and this last go around, the lie turned into - oh the acting classes ARE required to get bookings and make money)... yeah, they weren't when we first met. You just wanted my money. What did you spend it on Lesa? A new purse or a vacation? So, for the majority of us who never even get close to making this money back because she'll contact you less than a handful of times over 1.5 YEARS with low paying gigs, this woman needs to be hit with a class action lawsuit by ALLLLLL the people who never came close to making this money back despite her promises of grandeur and money in your first meeting with Lesa. This review is 100% true and it will be posted everywhere I can find a place to post. For those who were also scammed out of money, it's time we all band together because she does NOT care about you as a customer. She just wants your MONEY. DON'T DO IT!!!!! I'm certain many of you had similar experiences. Power in numbers. Feel free to contact me. People who prey on others are the lowest of the low. Poachers. Thanks for the lies, Lesa! read more

About faces is by far one of the best agency . I've previous been to another agency and they were a complete scam , but compared to about faces they have worked with me and my family, on how to pay and so much more, everyone including the staff has been incredibly nice and great to work with. I have been with about Face since March 2024 and Lesa had already booked me for a commercial and spend time to train me one-on-one. read more

She is so beyond dedicated, talented, smart and business savvy but never loses the heart. You feel like a million bucks in her presence and I can confidently say that your career is in the safest, most respected, kindest and hardest working hands with her leadership and guidance. read more

I had a very friendly reception when I walked in for a Verizon project. The people were efficient and happy. I had a short wait, the photographers and assistants worked quickly and were full of energy. They were happy to be there. A class was beginning in the next room and the students seemed very pleased to be there also! I was greeted half way through my session and asked if I indeed did check in and fill out all of the paperwork. Thorough and business like... didn't waste my time. THANK YOU! read more

If you are inexperienced how do you expect to get work? Someone has to get paid for headshots and training. If you expect to just jump on TV with no experience your headed down the wrong track. About Faces has been a reputable company since I was a child model. I'm 35 now and they are still around. They must be doing something right. Trust them, it's all "about faces" do you have the right one? My daughter does. read more

Great agency & instructors. I love that they offer help for your auditions. Sometimes you just need a place to rehearse on camera & get feedback from experienced actors & coaches Plus the acting coach just got booked for a show on BET. Great place for network & find more jobs. read more

When I say run..Ladies and gentlemen, Run. Worst played Scam I've ever seen. First off, Lisa is a fraud!..from start to finish all that was talked about was workshops and how money needed to paid out to get started. I wanted to laugh when she said $2,000.She must've thought I was a damn Fool!. When I said I didn't have that on the spot she bargained me down to $310.00. Young Girls, I repeat DON'TFALL FOR THIS MESS. I have enough common sense to know even with being a new model that your agency should take on those cost... And as the model builds and starts booking Gigs, that will then be paid back through your agencies percentage. read more

I love this agency. I was booked a sixflags job through them and it was a great experience. Everything was done professionally and through the agency and my pay came in the time frame that they told me to expect to wait... I highly recommend going through them. read more

A scam from the word go. Read the facebook reviews as well. Lisa, the 'agent' will pressure you (no matter how much experience you have) into paying $3000 for their classes, products, etc. or else they won't represent you. Bullcrap. A real agent does not take money from you. Scams do. This is a scam agency and the only ones getting small amoutns of work are the kids whose parents pay 3-5,000 for 'training' and then they might get background in a commercial. This is not a real agency. read more

About Faces is a professional talent agency. The staff and director were courteous and professional. I am a beginner actor and model and I needed some professional training. About Faces offered me professional training classes in modeling and acting which prepared me for jobs with the clients and auditions. read more

I've been with About Faces for about two months, and have already booked my first job. I've seen comments elsewhere about having to pay for headshots or special workshops, but if you don't think that's fair you don't work in the creative business. Someone has to pay the photographer, makeup artist, etc. I've enjoyed getting to know Lesa and feel she has my best interests at heart. I don't want to move to LA....but there's plenty of work here in Atlanta and I know I will get work here through About Faces. read more
