Beautiful baby model Ted was quite simply a picture when he took his very first steps into modelling.
The gorgeous, golden-haired boy was picked to pose wearing shoes from one of the UK’s best-known names in children’s footwear.
And the whole experience was certainly one to remember…
Start-Rite asked Models Direct to find a tiny tot to model their soft yet sturdy product range for toddlers.
Following our normal processes, we put together a list of suitable candidates for our client to choose from and they selected cheeky chap Ted.
When Ted’s mum learned the shoot was to take place in a park close to where they lived, it seemed too good an opportunity to turn down.
She and Ted stepped out and before long the little fellow was playing in the sunshine while the Start-Rite photographer snapped away.
Mum said the whole experience was a walk in the park and that both she and Ted had great fun.
She told us:
“Ted had a great morning yesterday on his first shoot with Models Direct.
“He was kept entertained and we were made to feel really welcome!
“The team was really friendly and the location was beautiful!
“Thanks Charlie for all your work!”
