On the day of my photo shoot I was a bit nervous as it was my first time but I was also really excited and eager to get started the company I worked with were really friendly and welcoming they were constantly making sure I was always alright throughout the day they provided us with meals refreshments and anything else we may have needed we started off the day getting acquainted with everyone on the team e.g(camerman ,directors ,videographer and the other models ) we then moved to a few different locations where we would take the photos the cameraman was very nice and helpful he gave clear instructions and directions as to what poses and facial expressions to make throughout the photoshoot we would take regular breaks with refreshments provided majority of the photos taken were solo but there were some group photos the company/cameraman made sure we were comfortable at all times which was very reassuring. The experience I had was extremely fun as it was easy to get along with everyone there. Before the final photoshoot we went to dinner at a restaurant and had an enjoyable time which made the experience that much more fun .I would personally say that this is similar to what I expected because overall it was a photoshoot but I didn’t expect to have such a great time and a thrilling two days . To sum it all up I had an amazing experience for my first photoshoot the people I worked with were great I was extremely happy with the way I was treated and is something I would most definitely like to do again

I had great fun acting in a social media ad.
Models Direct made the whole experience seamless and I'm grateful to them for securing this booking for me.
Everyone was extremely professional and friendly, and gave clear instruction throughout.
There was also no pressure to get anything perfect from the offset, which really put me at ease.
Overall a great experience and would work with the client again.

Today was an exciting and rewarding day on set for my modelling shoot. From the moment I arrived, the energy was upbeat and everyone on the team was welcoming and professional.
The creative direction for the shoot was clear, and I loved seeing how the vision came to life through styling and set design.
During the shoot, I felt confident and focused. The photographer gave great feedback, and the atmosphere on set made it easy to stay comfortable in front of the camera. We worked through several looks, each with its own vibe and story, which allowed me to explore a range of expressions and poses.
I appreciated how collaborative the experience was — everyone was working together to get the best results.
Overall, I left the shoot feeling proud and accomplished. It was a long day, but so worth it. I learned more about how to move with intention and respond to direction quickly, which I know will help in future shoots.
I’m really excited to see the final images and grateful for the opportunity to work with such a talented team

I had a great experience taking part in a modelling shoot at a student accommodation.
It was a fun and well-organized environment where I worked alongside a professional photographer and other models.
The experience helped me build confidence in front of the camera, improve my communication skills, and learn how to work as part of a creative team.
It was enjoyable, professional, and gave me valuable insight into the modelling industry.

NEW FACE OF GORMET CATFOOD
Regarding the Morrisons Shoot, we got there at 8:30 and the photographers arrived at 9:00, he gradually relaxed and they reckoned they had got enough (shots). I asked if they were going to use him and she said yes! He is going to be on the gourmet tins of cat food! I have enjoyed every minute of it and look forward to my next assignment.
