Rune Model Management is a worldwide mother agency founded on the philosophy of a commitment to our talent, their individuality, and their futures. With a personalized approach to development, management, and placement, Rune Models builds a model’s career from the ground up. From our office in Indianapolis, Indiana, we represent those living in the states and international models alike. It is our objective to discover talent, build versatile portfolios—and then obtain contracts for our models from premier agencies in every major fashion capital while booking them throughout the midwest market. Above all else, we focus on the wellbeing of our models by not charging any agency fees and by staying small so that we may focus on each model individually. We believe that any talent represented by Rune Model Management should not be just another number on a board, but rather a unique individual with their own story and path. We're about individualized representation - we will develop an individualized plan just for you. Rune Models does not adhere to a one-size-fits-all approach. With many fruitful years of industry experience, founder and CEO Josh Grooms possesses close relationships with scouts from major agencies around the world. As a person who values his talents' time and growth, Josh personally handles all bookings and offers workshops—be it in-person education or remote—for each talent. We are proud of our hands-on approach and strive to nurture our talent and foster lasting relationships. Josh grew up in a very small and conservative country-town where uniqueness and those who break the mold were not accepted and were ostracized for being different. Growing up with a big family of hard-working construction workers, he cites his upbringing as the inspiration for his agency - celebrating the unique personalities, stories, and passions of his talent.
