Latitude Model Management, LLC Booking Agreement

These terms and conditions (the “Terms”) constitute an agreement between the booking party (“Client”) and Latitude Model Management (“Agency”), regarding the services provided.

CLIENT RESPONSIBILITIES

Clients may view, cast, and book models through Latitude Model Management for legitimate commercial purposes.

If the Client is booking on behalf of a third party (“Ultimate Client”), the Client agrees that the Ultimate Client will comply with these Terms. The Client remains fully responsible for payment and compliance with this Agreement regardless of whether the Ultimate Client pays the Client.
