A modelling tail

27th February 2020

How your pet can become a model When it comes to modelling, animals have a lot in common with children. Both require special treatment, and both can be unpredictable.

Would your little one succeed as a model?

21st February 2020

Permission granted to put on your rose-tinted spectacles! Most parents believe their chubby-cheeked cherubs would shine in front of a camera…and maybe they would. After all, your baby or toddler looks adorable and is a little darling. Tantrums are rare and for the most part they are exceptionally well behaved. You’ve been thinking about a […]

 
When is an “agency” not an agency?

20th February 2020

Of the many unsavoury words in existence, “unscrupulous” may well be one of the most unpleasant. As most of you know, the word refers to a lack of doing what is fair, honest, or morally right. But let’s not start off on the wrong foot; the vast majority of agencies are legitimate and highly respected […]

 
On the Move – How Much Exercise Should We Be Taking?

19th February 2020

Half an hour of moderate exercise three times a week or an hour of vigorous activity twice a week? Most of us are only too aware we should be exercising far more than we do – but we have little or no idea of exactly how much that should be. The good news, according to […]

I shot for a promotional campaign for the women's F1, the job was well communicated with me and ran like any other creative job I've been on elsewhere.

“CLIMBING IN CONFIDENCE
The assignment Models Direct sent me on with the National Trust was really good fun but I was very nervous because I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. In this modelling shoot I had to overcome my fear of heights as we were asked to climb a tree for the photos! But the photographer was nice and helped a lot. The tree was easy to climb, there were five of us in the tree and we had lots of pictures taken in different poses. In the end I enjoyed climbing and got more confident as I climbed higher and higher. I think everyone should climb trees because this was what the National Trust says is good for us. I would say that being a model is a great way of doing new things and learning new stuff. If you want to be a model you should join an agency and try to keep your e-portfolio up to date. I did this for the experience and have enjoyed my work as a model.”

With the saying that “eyes are the […]
