Modeling Jobs in California for Beginners: Every City We're Casting In

4 MIN READPublished: 10/27/2026

California girls already know the look. What most don't know is that you don't need an agency in Hollywood, a portfolio or a paid shoot to get started. Bart Starr's Rockstarr Media is casting new faces 18 and older all over the state, and most of the girls we meet have never modeled.

Southern California

Los Angeles: models, actresses and on-camera talent, from the beach cities to downtown
Orange County: resort, retail and event work from Anaheim to Newport Beach and Huntington Beach
Long Beach: harbor, convention and downtown event work
San Diego: beach, bay and Gaslamp work, plus the big convention and festival seasons
San Luis Obispo: a Central Coast college town full of girls just getting started

The Bay Area and the coast

San Francisco: hotels, retail and big-city brand events
San Jose: Silicon Valley launches, conventions and Santana Row-style retail
Napa: resorts, restaurants and hospitality all through the valley
Eureka, Arcata and the Redwood Coast: small towns, big look

Sacramento, the valley and the north

Sacramento: the capital's hotels, restaurants and event calendar
Davis: a college town minutes from Sacramento
Fresno and Merced: the Central Valley, from downtown to the campuses
Chico and Redding: Northern California college and river towns

Who we're looking for

Servers, bartenders, hotel and retail girls: you already talk to strangers all day and stay calm when it gets busy
College girls: at any California campus, 18 and older
Girls who cheered or danced: Rockstarr Media doesn't hire cheerleaders or dancers as such, but performing for a crowd and taking direction make you a strong candidate
Every type: petite, tall, curvy, plus-size, athletic, every skin tone and background
