Modelling jobs and more...

Following our recent family photoshoot, we wanted to take the opportunity to share what a truly fantastic experience we had from start to finish.
From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome by the whole team. Everyone was friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in helping us achieve the look and outcome we were hoping for. As a family, it can sometimes be challenging to coordinate everyone and keep young children engaged, but the crew made the entire process feel effortless.
The team went above and beyond to ensure the children were comfortable and entertained throughout the session. They provided colouring books, snacks, and plenty of encouragement, helping to keep the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Their patience, energy, and ability to engage with the kids made a huge difference and allowed us all to enjoy the experience rather than feel rushed or pressured.
What stood out most was how naturally the crew encouraged us to interact as a family. They created a fun and relaxed environment where the children could simply be themselves, resulting in genuine smiles, laughter, and special moments together. The team's guidance helped us feel confident in front of the camera, and they were always on hand with suggestions and support to get the best out of every shot.
The whole photoshoot felt more like a fun family activity than a formal photography session. The children had an amazing time on set, and it was wonderful to see them enjoying themselves while creating memories together. The atmosphere was warm, friendly, and professional throughout, making the experience one that we will remember fondly.
We left feeling excited and grateful for such a positive experience and are now eagerly looking forward to seeing the final photographs. Based on our experience, we would highly recommend this team to any family looking for a fun, relaxed, and professional photoshoot experience. Thank you to everyone involved for making it such a memorable day and thanks to models direct for introducing us to the client!!!

Today was my very first ad shoot, and I have to say, it was an exciting, fun-filled, and eye-opening experience.
From the moment I arrived at the studio, there was a buzz of energy in the air. The team was welcoming, and everyone seemed to be in their zone, preparing for what would turn out to be an unforgettable day. As we got started with the first few shots, I was amazed at how many people were behind the scenes, coordinating everything to perfection. The lighting, camera angles, and even the smallest details were all being adjusted to ensure the best results.
It was fascinating to see all the effort that goes into creating a perfect shot. While I expected there to be a lot of waiting around and setting up, the team made it smooth and fun with music, laughter, and light conversation. By midday, I felt like I had settled into my role and was having a blast.
It was not just about posing; it was about feeling the moment and connecting with the camera. I definitely felt more comfortable as the day went on, and there were several moments where I genuinely enjoyed being in front of the camera.
I would also thank my agent, Charlie, for her constand and prompt response to every query I had and in making this process as smooth and memorable as possible for me. In short, my first ad shoot was a thrilling experience. It was everything I hoped for and more, and I can’t wait to do it again!

LUXURY PET CLOTHING AND ACCESSORIES
When I saw the advertisement from Models Direct for a dog model, our Sid sounded like he'd fit the bill! He had recently modelled in a local photo shoot for a clothing brand and he was the star of the show!The shoot we attended was for a London based dog clothing and accessories brand that are launching this September and needed some photos for the website and other relevant media. It helped when I was giving Sid commands so that he posed well, and he also got lots of treats for being good. He sat well for what they needed and fell asleep a few times on set - which was sometimes perfect for the image of the photo, but sometimes we did have to wake him up!As he is only five months we were a little worried about his reaction to trains, tubes and the business of London travelling in peak times but he was brilliant and even fell asleep a few times on the journey.The best part of the day for Sid was all the fuss and treats he was getting. He learnt a lot from the day and it did wonders for his training. It’s certainly made me more confident in taking him places and being able to trust his behaviour in different circumstances and environments.I would recommend to other puppy owners to do something like this because it’s excellent for socializing your pup and getting some lovely photos of them while they are still small!We would love to do more of these shoots and hope to build him a portfolio that will allow us to do so more often. It was a great experience for him so we would like to keep it going!

I received a call from Gemma to participate in a photoshoot session for Alzheimer's Research UK at a Community Centre in a lovely remote area. It has been a great experience. The photo shoot staff was amicable, welcoming, professional, and supportive throughout the session. I had the opportunity to interact and socialise with people and ultimately had fun doing it.It turned out to be an enjoyable sunny day in the countryside.Thanks Gemma. I look forward to getting more calls in the coming weeks.Date of experience: 03 October 2024
