Models Direct is direct in our agency’s approach. We’re forward in how we do things and want every age group in the population to enjoy our comprehensive modelling services.
From bambinos to silver foxes who are trailblazing across the UK, every age group gets to enjoy a variety of amazing modelling opportunities with us.
Our agency is age positive, so we don’t count anyone out over 40, and as a matter of fact, we do not exclude our cute little people who have just entered the world either.
Models Direct knows just how important it is to include everyone because clients who are looking to hire want the same too.
There’s definitely something in it for everyone.
Modelling doesn’t just zoom in on high-end fashion and editorial shoots. We’ve opened the modelling landscape encompassing different types of modelling categories, including sports modelling, fit modelling, petite modelling, tall modelling, and body parts modelling. We also encompass different variations of modelling applicants, such as couples modelling, family modelling, pregnancy modelling, twin modelling, sibling modelling, and other family formations such as mum and child, grandparent and grandchild, or blended families.
Clients who are looking to hire our models come with a variety of briefs. Their marketing team devises a well-thought-out plan for a captivating campaign, which is a unique selling point with the intention to fulfil the vision. This means that it’s literally anyone’s guess who exactly they need and want to hire.
Models Direct, unfortunately, cannot predict who they would need based on their hiring history with us. However, what we do promise is that we try our hardest to put forward all the models we believe match the brief as closely as possible.
We then present our models to the client, who then lets us know if they’d like to select one or some of them, depending on their brief’s requirements.
Models Direct is an age-positive agency that collaborates with and celebrates all ages, not just the younger generations. So whether you’re a Gen Alpha, Gen Z, millennial, Gen X, or baby boomer, our modelling agency will welcome you.
We value our older applicants who have naturally acquired valuable life experiences and wisdom to share, coupled with timeless beauty and confidence.
Our female model, Alicija, was booked with Greene King, and she left her feedback here:
“Great experience. I had my first photoshoot ever as a model 40+ and it was great. The atmosphere was relaxing, as I was a bit nervous, but the instructions were clear and so professional. I had fun in the session with other models. Thank you”
As for our baby models, we see how much of a positive impact they have in the marketing world, being their cute, authentic selves.
Our modelling-savvy experts work vigorously behind the scenes to get our models of all ages connected with our top-tier clients. We cannot guarantee that you’ll be selected for an assignment as we have more models than work, but what we do promise is that our models or our top priority.

We gently remind our models to update their eportfolio on a regular basis so that clients can see the most up-to-date version of themselves. This helps make the selection process smoother. We give our models control of how they want to present themselves, encouraging them to be their authentic selves and showcase their poses, expressions, and styles the way they want to. With our regular blogs and social media interactions with our audience, we also offer consistent modelling advice and guidance.
Above all, our agency looks for the following characteristics in our talent:
A can-do attitude – no one wants negativity. It’s all about bringing people up, not down, contrary to what most might think about the modelling industry. We offer a different take on it, that’s for sure, which leads to the next character trait.
A positive attitude.
Able to work independently and as part of a team.
Patient, approachable, and energetic.
