Great shoot today with Models Direct. I was contacted at short notice by Charlie to attend a shoot and she was brilliant at getting information to me quickly and accommodating other comments I already had. The team at the shoot were great, super friendly and easy to work with. My daughter who was with me even got involved and loved it! As always, everyone was professional and kept the shoot on track as they knew I had to leave by a certain time. I was contacted by Model's Direct promptly after the shoot to follow up and check that everting had gone smoothly. A fun afternoon!

I thoroughly enjoyed my latest acting role, although I was slightly nervous beforehand as it was the biggest job I have had, however the team really made me feel at ease. I enjoyed shooting all the scenes. I filmed for an NHS information film and had to be filmed using the various facilities around the hospital. I gained some new insight into what it is like to be an actor i.e. how long scenes can take to film. I also gained confidence from the experience and feel it will help with my future bookings. I would recommend the experience to others as it was a useful and enjoyable experience. I would tell anyone looking to get into the talent industry to join an agency, which is a very useful move as well as maintaining a quality and up to date portfolio. I am always on Models Direct's websites and social media keeping an eye out for jobs as being proactive is important in order to obtain more work. I joined up with Models Direct to gain more experience and pursue my dream career as an actor and model, and they have really helped me to move forward in this field.

My first shoot with models direct was a brilliant experience.
Everyone from the staff, photographers and other models were very easy to get on with and clear with what was needed.
I felt very well looked after and valued and had such a good time.
Really can't wait for the next shoot!

Hi, I want to say first of all how helpful, enthusiastic and supportive Gemma was at every stage of my experience modelling so successfully once again for Models Direct.
I was glad to do it for such a good cause too - Alzheimer's Research UK and found it a very interesting and eye opening experience.
The crew I worked with were all really lovely people. I found them welcoming, warm and they offered very helpful guidance and positive feedback throughout the process. I could see how passionate they were about Alzheimer's UK. My partner for the day was very pleasant and we got on well.
All in all an excellent experience. I'm very happy to have been selected for the shoot.
