We take great pride and pleasure being a smaller hands on personalised business. All it takes to start your new exciting venture with Kool Kids is to call or e mail our office and set an appointment to enrol On the day of your registration one of our photographers will be there on hand to take photographs for  your mini portfolio. We deal with many different shoots daily & are continuously recommending artists for various jobs.

Owner

After being in management in the Travel Industry for many years I decided it was time to move into something different where I could be more flexible and spend more time and be more involved with my 2 children growing up. In the very early days of Kool Kids they both did castings and shoots which was wonderful because it allowed me the first hand opportunity to experience being behind the scenes (as the agent) as well as on set and get a fabulous all round exposure.
