Dante's Models

We publish this city.

We are a New York photography studio and model management company, and we publish for the city's creative community every day.

Four things, every day.

The castings board

Open casting calls in New York, read from public industry sources twice a day and posted with the source named. No listing goes up without a link a reader can check.

/castings
The events wire

744 permitted events, free park concerts and outdoor screenings across the five boroughs, refreshed twice daily from city, parks and cultural feeds.

/black-book
Industry news

Trade headlines with a working line under each one on what it means for people building a career here, not a summary of the story.

/news
In Spanish

A full Spanish edition and a community events layer, because a large part of the audience we serve reads and books in Spanish first.

Window: the 14 days to August 31, 2026. Automated traffic, our own client galleries and administrative requests are excluded. Search engines and AI assistants crawl the site daily; those visits are not counted above.

On the ground.

Free and public events

Parades, street festivals, outdoor screenings and park concerts across all five boroughs, with an emphasis on the community events larger outlets skip.

Portrait and fashion work

Editorial and portrait photography on New York streets and rooftops, which is the studio's daily work and the reason the events coverage exists.

New talent

We photograph and develop new models at no charge to them, and publish the work. That program is why we care about access.

What we ask, what you get.

Publicists and venues

If you handle press for a New York show, festival or opening, we request photo access for one shooter and publish the work with the artist and venue credited. Tell us your deadline and embargo and we will respect both. Send to the address below with the date and we will confirm the same day.

Ticket and access partners

We can put an offer in front of a New York creative audience that skews young, bilingual and event-going. If you have inventory to move or an audience to reach, we will run it honestly, name you as the source, and send you the numbers afterward.

Sponsors and supporters

Photographing and developing new talent for free costs money that has to come from somewhere. If your company supports creative access work in New York, we would rather show you the program than pitch you. Ask and we will send what we actually do and what it costs.

One address for all of it
