Good experience on first shoot
Gemma has been a great agent to work with. She did all the logistical work for me which I couldn't appreciate more. Had a very good experience on my first shoot too.
Staff were polite and professional and I enjoyed working with other actors/models.
Would highly recommend working with Models Direct!

The client made me feel welcome, I had a cup of tea because I was early(amazing) I was then taken in to the shoot. I had to put on these hospital gowns which were a tight fit. The photographer then gave me direction with the designer on what they wanted they were very pleased with shoot which then made me feel great. The shoot was in a fantastic location I have never been to that part of London before. I loved being a model bring on more!

I couldn't have hoped for a better 'first time experience' with Models Direct if I had wished for it! The communication with Charlie was exemplary from start to finish! I received all the shoot information long before day with numerous opportunities to ask questions at every stage! The information was detailed, clear and concise and even provided background information regarding our Production Team! If that wasn’t enough, what pleased me the most was the thorough post shoot catch up. I have rarely been asked my personal views on a shoot , particularly from a view of improvements for future shoots!Thank you Models Direct particularly Charlie - heres to our continued success!!

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

A wonderful exciting experience . It was my first time on shoot and didn't really know what to expect. A warm welcome and pointed in the right direction by the crew. The opportunity to meet other people taking part in the shoot that day was interesting and at the same time intriguing to get to talk to so many different people. My experience of the day was that I had loads of fun and laughs once I became less nervous. The only criticism of the day was the communication it could have been more fluent at times slightly confusing didn't know whether I needed to stay or go? That said all in all a fabulous day with fabulous people thank you for this new experience. Look forward to doing more.

PLAYING A UNIVERSITY STUDENT
I was very nervous beforehand as this was my first job, but it was a very enjoyable experience. There was a lot of waiting around but the actual shoot was really fun. I had to act as a university student who had built a solar car with two other Models Direct models. The team were very helpful and nice and it was a great experience - it has definitely made me feel more confident to do further jobs. I decided to choose this agency as it gave me a wider choice of work, not just modelling, but also dancing and performing.

We were invited to take part in a children’s wear shoot for a high end brand at an iconic location!
The sun was shining and everyone was super friendly & accommodating to Cheddar, ensuring we had everything we needed to keep him happy & cool in the heat.
He had plenty of breaks between shots to rest and his safety was a priority when shooting outside.
Models Direct supported me throughout the process with detailed briefs, emails & phone calls in the lead up, and a follow up phone call afterwards to see how it had gone.
Shout out to Gemma who is always great to chat to & answer any questions.
