Many of us aspire to make something of ourselves – we follow the success of celebrities and we admire those who seem to have that extra special something that we don’t have.
Sometimes we might look at famous models, actors and musicians and wish we looked a little more like them as well.
Perhaps we might feel they are particularly attractive, striking or charismatic and it is very possible that we envy them a little more than we know we should.
Well, times are changing and it is no longer just the great, the good and the impossibly attractive who have a chance at making it in the world – we all do!

And if you want to see your lovely, unique face beaming out from a campaign poster, promotional video or high street advertisement, there is absolutely no reason why you shouldn’t!
Yes, the every day, the real, the genuine and the authentic is the new holy grail of advertising.
Clients such as the international brands and major high street names that we at Models Direct team up with are increasingly looking to feature normal members of the public.
This is because they have cottoned on to the fact that most of us are much more likely to part with our hard-earned cash if we can see people like ourselves promoting the products and services they want us to buy.
In addition, we work with lots of charities, local authorities and services (including the NHS) that are not all about appealing to our aspirations.
They want real people of all ages and backgrounds to engage with what they are trying to say and the messages they want us to connect with.
Here at Models Direct, we have men, women and children of all ages, backgrounds, body sizes and shapes on our books – and each one has something individual to offer.
They reflect the general public as they really are in all their rich diversity and this is why they are so sought after by our clients for photo and film shoots as well as promotional modelling jobs.
Our models have to be friendly, confident and very happy to work within a team of other models and crew members.

They must be reliable, flexible and ready to learn – but they really don’t have to have a particular look to join us.
So, if you are interested in finding out more, then fill in our form, send us some photos and tell us all about yourself.
You never know, your everyday look could be campaign gold and this could be the very beginning of a whole new exciting chapter in your life.
This is the feedback female model Carina gave us after she was chosen by our client for an assignment for Smartdesk.
“This was my first booking with Models Direct and it did not disappoint.
“I was made to feel really comfortable by the whole crew and other extras and had such a fun time shooting.
“I was kept well informed via email about any changes and what to expect on the day which made it easier for me.
“I cannot wait for the next one!”
