IMAJ Artists is a talent agency representing photographers, wardrobe stylists, hair and makeup artists. Based in New York City and Miami, IMAJ founders Michelle Leo and Tonya Pittman set out with one goal in mind, develop true connections between artists and clients through their professional insights. Coming from opposite ends of the industry with long lasting relationships and collaborations, this strong female duo joined forces to take their agency a step beyond booking.
Michelle has 15 years of agent experience and is the go-to agent for clients booking artists for celebrity, campaign, editorial and catalog shoots. Tonya started her industry career as an award-winning hairstylist, later becoming an International Educator for L’Oreal Professionnel. She met Michelle at FORD where she was discovered as a model 16 years ago and became a recognisable face in campaigns and commercials.
By having a 360 degree understanding of the industry, Michelle and Tonya bring a unique approach to artist relations and client needs.
IMAJ Artists editorial work can be seen in publications such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue, Marie Claire and L’Officiel.
IMAJ meaning image in a few languages around the world: a representation of the external form of a person or thing in art.
