Photoshoot for The Royal College of Nursing
That's my 2nd job with Models Direct and it was another great experience!
This photoshoot felt special because we had to be in the skin of nurses in action and show, as best as we could, their amazing skill set, dedication and human connection they bring every day. The production team and the photographer were professional and really nice. We were guided by an experienced nurse, so I felt confident that I was representing nurses as realistically as possible!
The other models from Models Direct were super nice too. So nice vibes overall!
Thanks

I joined Models Direct after I took semi-retirement and had a bit more spare time on my hands. I am a fairly confident person and love meeting new people. I wanted to do something completely different and it seemed like a fun and interesting thing to do. This was my first assignment and I was booked to pose as part of a couple using Airport Parking Facilities for a holiday company. The assignment took place near Aberdeen Airport and was over three days. I didn't quite know what to expect, but I needn't have worried as the crew were fantastic at putting me at ease and explaining exactly what they needed from me. I thoroughly enjoyed working with my partner and the crew and learned about the process of shooting an advert. I found the whole experience totally enjoyable and really exciting, and would certainly like to do more work like this in the future. I think it has been a great move for me to join Models Direct as they have managed the whole booking process with professionalism. They have also been extremely encouraging and supportive.

"Ellison is only 8 months old so couldn't say in his own words but I could tell he had a really good day, the actors and Director were really nice with him and got through all scenes needed.
This was a first for Ellison and myself and the whole day was enjoyable and seeing him being a good boy while filming made me smile.Ellison had to be a teething toddler in an internal training Video for Tesco that gave examples of how to and how not to deal with customer service in a pharmacy setting.
This assignment, has given me confidence that Ellison interacts extremely well with other Actors/Models and is still happy no matter what the situation.It was a fun day out and gave me a sense of pride and also a nice little bit of money for his savings account for when hes older.
We don't live in or around London so opportunities in acting/modeling there never even come up in this area. Joining an Agency like Models Direct gives us the opportunity to be put forward for exciting opportunities. Models Direct works on your behalf and do the job hunting for you. We have been registered with Models Direct for only a few weeks and he has already had his first job.We signed Ellison up as a bit of fun more than anything. Obviously as his parents we feel he has one of the cutest little faces we have seen :) and would love to flick through pictures or films with him in when he is older. Plus what ever money we get out of this can go into a savings account for when he is older.

Organising the shoot was really smooth. Charlie, at Models direct was amazing, keeping us informed, sending information and answering all our questions.
This was our sons first shoot, with me tagging a long. We did a son and father shoot for a new campaign. We got their in plenty of time. Both me and son were nervous as we were not sure what to expect. But the shoot crew were really nice and down to earth and made the whole experience really fun and enjoyable.
We took photos and videos performing some of the new online trends and playing games. My son had a great time, especially laughing at me.
The crew were amazing, keeping us informed, working with us to get the photos and videos right and coaching and explaing to my son. We were at the shoot for about 4 hours which was about right, we had drinks, breaks and lots of laughs. Couldnt ask for a better first time experience.
