Shady gay guy who lures models for sex and money
Everyone in the industry knows how shady and fraudulent this guy is. He will take anyone in to make money for online fees, paying his rent in his *** apartment and then he will pump you out and send you to other shady photographers who get you naked and molest them.
Before you sign the agreement find his models and ask them. Most of his models dont make money whatsoever. This dude gets off on luring guys in for sex and he will use your nude pics and videos to entice other photographers to shoot with you for free. Rick Day, another shady photographer works hand in hand with this guy because they both benefit sexually from models.
Avoid this guy Ryan and his shady company at all costs. He doesnt even have an office space.
He works off of his *** apartment. Be warned!!
User's recommendation: Run fast!!!

I worked at this ''agency'' and he NEVER paid me, for several works actually. stay away from this unprofessional ( I want to write something else but I keep it super polite) no class and the whole industry knows what he does but unfortunately the business he does still exists
User's recommendation: stay away from this place
This is the kind of person Ryan Colby is
This is what Ryan Colby text me after i told him he owed us 200$ for a book we never recieved plus whatever my daughter should have earned for a photo shoot. He obviously has mental issues!!!
Such a scammer
PLEASE read reviews. He is a liar. Thief and UNTRUSTWORTHY!
We paid him 200$ for the "book" we never received. He was supposed to get my daughter modeling jobs, but sent her to a hotel for an "audition" so I went with her.
The guy was surprised to see me there with her. He didn't even have a camera!!
I should have reported it to the police immediately. He is a liar and thief!!

Ryan Colby Colby Models New York NY stole $500 dollars from me!
I was a model for Colby Models and Ryan Colby for 3 years. I never met anyone who made more than $100.00 total after being with them for 3 years. They prey on unsuspecting models and tell them all about the fame and money but all the time we went out and worked to pay their rent. They always lie and commit illegal acts but having sex with underage models and taking them into clubs to get money from promoters. The keep everyone quiet by threatening their carreers and making them believe if we do what they say we will make money. Bit the jobs never come. It is all lies and they are expert liars. They manipulate people and the internet to make themselves look good but recently everyone is leaving them. The make everyone feel like if they leave them they will be destroyed, They are liars, evil and are glorified pimps. Ryan has a temper so everyone is battered, Intimidation and threats and battering. Don't put your child here. Ryan has been having sex with underage boys for years and now he tries to pimp them out for money. These are slimey bad people, be warned. Do not wire this man money for show cards or pictures. It is a scam!

Ryan Colby was fired from Empire Model Management in Sept 2009.
AUTHOR: Empire model management, inc - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Wednesday, December 08, 2010
Ryan Colby no longer works for Empire Model Management Inc. and has not since September 2009. I took action and fired him due to these types of complaints that were brought to my attention. I cant be responsible for the actions of a booker that works for Empire Model Management if I am unaware of what is going on. Empire Model Management works very hard on each model to ensure that they get the best representation for their career. We can only do our part! The models must be able to close the deal and do a good job when working for the top clients in the industry. We have learned a lot in our first 3 years of being in this business. It is cut throat and not for the weak hearted. We are capable just as many model management companies to get a good model in front of the decision makers of this business. We develop and transform females and males from ordinary everyday people into models that have the knowledge of what it takes to succeed.
Empire Model Management nor myself, Justin D. Peery has never been unprofessional with any model EVER!
I agree that having to say I Love you to an agent is absolutely ridiculous. We obviously will not tolerate this type of behavior from anyone.
Sadly it is not the person responsible for these actions that gets the bad rep. It is the agency that they worked for.
This criminal has a ten year track record for scamming models parents and young boys!

His models also wind up dead when they question him!

Hi. Are you open to a conversation with another male model as I was approached via instagram.
Hey, I was talking to him via instagram. Do you have any experience with them and if so how was it?
This guy took money from me and never returned it. $300 for comp cards and never produced and contract was a rip-off.
He charges a model tech fee if $600 a year!!
After getting 20% and wants you to be exclusive. SCAM
