Modelling jobs and more...

I had a great time on the shoot on Monday 30th September. All the people there were lovely and very welcoming, they made me feel at ease from the first moment and they were amazing to work with. The communication from Models Direct prior to the shoot was also fantastic, as was the communication following the shoot. Overall it was a great experience and I had a lot of fun and felt welcome from the start.

CLIMBING IN CONFIDENCE
The assignment Models Direct sent me on with the National Trust was really good fun but I was very nervous because I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. In this modelling shoot I had to overcome my fear of heights as we were asked to climb a tree for the photos! But the photographer was nice and helped a lot. The tree was easy to climb, there were five of us in the tree and we had lots of pictures taken in different poses. In the end I enjoyed climbing and got more confident as I climbed higher and higher. I think everyone should climb trees because this was what the National Trust says is good for us. I would say that being a model is a great way of doing new things and learning new stuff. If you want to be a model you should join an agency and try to keep your e-portfolio up to date. I did this for the experience and have enjoyed my work as a model.

This was Ethan’s second assignment with Models Direct and was slightly different from the first one as this time he was not involved in a TV show but in a large campaign for a top mobile phone provider which included chatting amongst other Models Direct models and a photo shoot. Charlie once again was amazing letting me, (his Mother), know all the information regarding the shoot and keeping me updated with any changes. On the day we were greeted by one of the mobile phone providers staff who was really lovely and talked Ethan through what was expected of him for the morning shoot all the other models present were also from Models Direct and were very lovely and friendly. The shoot was amazing. Ethan really enjoyed all of it and is really looking forward to seeing the results of the campaign when it’s released soon. Thank you once again Models Direct for the opportunity of another amazing project can’t wait for the next one.

I have been extremely impressed with Models Direct as an Agency due to many factors. From the registration process with Heidi who actually had conversations with me and didn't make me feel like just a number to get on their books to pay the fee, but who I felt was completely genuine, watching their active and impressive social media postings (hoping one day I would be up there!), good luck wishes and well done posts and stories, to being active in looking for work for me from the beginning.
And then there's Gemma! Gemma has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She was so helpful in booking in my first job with Models Direct and was in regular contact, sending through booking information, promptly answered any queries that I had, helped me to feel at ease in the lead up, wished me luck on the day and then followed up after the shoot. Gemma really is a credit to the agency as she is professional, friendly, personable, positive, full of encouragement and very knowledgeable.
I am still smiling from ear to ear after the shoot yesterday as I couldn't have asked for a better first experience! My male model partner was a perfect match for me, and the photographers were so helpful, experienced, laid back, calming and such a pleasure to work with, we all enjoyed ourselves thoroughly and had such a laugh! The client was very accommodating also, looked after us very well and made us feel special.
I honestly can't thank Models Direct and Gemma enough and will always have the fondest memories of my first shoot!
