Modeling work in Mainz
Mainz is the capital of Rhineland-Palatinate, on the Rhine near Frankfurt. Our catalogue lists one agency here, SMS Models, and it is the catalogue's only agency in that state. It is run by the company SMS Seeber's Model Service GmbH, with an office on Mombacher Straße.
The agency has operated since 1972, which makes it one of the oldest in our German catalogue. Its website says the family business has been led by Julia Richter since 2024. The agency presents itself as working in Frankfurt and the Rhine-Main region, so its models also work for clients in neighbouring Frankfurt. Its list of boards is wide, from kids to older models.
The agency's boards in the catalogue: women's, men's, senior, curve, kids and commercial.

How to get started
- Take simple digitals in daylight and write down accurate measurements.
- If you are applying for a child, bear in mind that a shoot needs a permit; the Germany guide explains the procedure.
- Apply through the agency's official website. A genuine agency does not charge for applying or for a casting; being asked to pay for registration, a Sedcard or a compulsory shoot is a sign of a modeling scam.
- Contracts, commission, tax and the rules for minors are covered in the guide Modeling agencies in Germany.
