One of our proudest success stories is that of Mackenzie Fee. Mackenzie was one of the first models to sign with Eyed By Us, and her journey has been nothing short of inspiring. Standing at 5’11", Mackenzie Fee possessed a striking presence that most in the area overlooked—but as the founder of Eyed By Us, I saw something different.

She had raw potential, the elegance and poise of a true model, and a look reminiscent of those who dominate the runways of Paris, Milan, and other major fashion capitals. The moment I saw her, I knew she had to be part of EBU. When she joined us in our first year, Mackenzie had raw talent but needed the right opportunities to take her career to the next level. That’s exactly what Eyed By Us provided her.

During her time with EBU, Mackenzie took full advantage of the resources we offered:

• Photoshoot Opportunities: Mackenzie participated in several photoshoots that helped her build a strong and diverse portfolio.

• Portfolio Building: We worked closely with Mackenzie to develop her portfolio, setting her up for success with high-quality images that would catch the eyes of agencies and clients.

• Bridal Shoot Participation: Thanks to EBU’s network, Mackenzie had the chance to model in a stunning bridal shoot, further diversifying her experience.

• Comp Cards: We provided Mackenzie with professional comp cards that she used for casting calls, opening doors to new opportunities.

• Breakout Sessions: EBU provided personalized coaching and portfolio building sessions, which helped Mackenzie break out of her shell and gain the confidence she needed to enter the modeling field.

With her drive and our resources, Mackenzie quickly gained attention from other photographers and industry professionals. Within just a year of joining Eyed By Us, her hard work and dedication led to incredible opportunities, including:

• Walking Runways in Philly and New York

• Modeling for PRAJJÉ OSCAR, a designer from Project Runway

• Participating in The Model Experience Show in New York

• Modeling for Unorthodox Clothing on NBC 10 News Live

• E-commerce Work for Cloud Nine Sheepskin

• Published in The Darkly Magazine

• Becoming A Model Captain for The Kyle Woodland Show

• Signing with Range Model Management, a Mother Agency in Philadelphia

Though Eyed By Us gave Mackenzie the initial push, it was her hard work, dedication, and professionalism that secured these incredible opportunities. She is living proof that with the right foundation and a lot of determination, you can achieve amazing things in this industry.
