Calling all mothers and daughters! Family Circle and Wilhelmina Models have teamed up for the 2nd annual nationwide Model Mother-Daughter Search. Judges are looking for mother and daughter duos (daughters 8 and up) to enter the search, which is going on through July 10.
“Last year’s search resulted in a tremendous number of submissions and our call for entries proved that looks aren’t everything. We were overwhelmed by the strong family bonds shared by so many mother-daughter duos across the country," says Linda Fears, editor-in-chief of Family Circle.
An open call event will be held in Columbus on June 21.
Those interested in entering can attend the open call event or visit www.familycircle.com/modelsearch or www.wilhelmina.com/familycircle for more information.
The six finalist teams will receive an expense-paid trip to New York City to participate in a professional photo shoot for Family Circle, as well as the final round of judging by a panel of Family Circle editors, Wilhelmina agents, and other industry experts.
The winning mother-daughter team will be awarded:
• A five-year Modeling Contract with Wilhelmina Models ($10,000 for the mother; $5,000 for the daughter)
• An appearance in Family Circle and on Better.TV
• An all expenses paid trip to NYC for photo shoot and judging
• Chocolate pearl necklaces from Jewelry Television ($10,000 value)
