I had the pleasure of participating in a shoot today, and I wanted to share my experience. The day began with a warm welcome at reception, where I enjoyed a refreshing cup before heading to the set. There, I met Chris Golding, whose exuberance whose and detailed briefing set the tone for the day. His perspective in the country setting and clear outline of the project were both engaging and informative.
Caitlin, one of the key team members then arrived, while others assumed their roles. I was particularly struck by the fact that two of the carers featured were real-life community staff. Their soothing presence and dedication brought a genuine energy which was infectious.
The photographer’s expertise was exceptional, with some great lighting and angles for every scene. The shoot was a pleasure, thanks to the variety of backdrops—kitchen, living room, bedroom, garden, and market—each thoughtfully scouted. Some scenes were bathed in soft pastel hues, while others, like the riverside walk, were beautifully dappled, creating a joyful atmosphere. The focused nature of the work yet on such a pleasant day was disciplining.
The shoot balanced the challenge of portraying the emotional weight of separation with the need to make the living accommodation accessible and appealing. Having experienced loss myself last year, I found the sensitivity with which this was handled quite moving.
Thank you for the opportunity to be part of it and I look forward to future collaborations.
Best regards, David Dean

I did a shoot for a pub and had a really great day overall. I travelled to Manchester with my partner the staff were very friendly and explained what was going on and where to go.
We spent some time waiting and then after lunch we took part in a photo and video shoot which was enjoyable and fun.

I had my first booked assignment with Models direct and it was fun. I appreciate that communication from Charlie has been so efficient throughout the process. Everything was well-explained and well-organised. During the filming day, I was taking part in a Ted talk style presentation together with another models. While waiting for our time to come in for the scene, I had such lovely conversations with the other models. I enjoyed being in the set with the production team and doing something in a group. It was truly a teamwork. I look forward to working on more projects with Models Direct. Thank you so much.

Please be proactive in updating your profiles because this has helped immensely in securing a booking. hopefully one of many! The atmosphere that team fostered on set was welcoming. They made sure to give direction whilst allowing me to test poses without judgement, communicated off the set adding to my comfortability and they were genuinely positive people. I couldn't have asked for a better crew to be under the care of. Another piece of advice that helped is preparation. I would have had a tough time having to figure out body and facial poses on the spot. Luckily, I looked on social platforms beforehand. Best of luck!
