Another great job through Models DirectDate of experience: 28 May 2025

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!

"Elsie and Mummy had a fun two days on set in Wales. We spent the first day at the beach, and the weather was lovely for most of the day. We made friends quickly with the other families involved in the shoot. The day was enjoyable and went surprisingly quickly. We spent the second day in two different locations. Firstly, in the park, on the swings, scaling the climbing frames and running around with elsie’s new-found best friend Annabelle. The second location was set in the woodlands by a beautiful castle just outside neath. A stroll by the stream further into the countryside, a spot of fishing and splashing away in the water was a great way to finish off our second day. A thoroughly enjoyable first experience, a brilliant learning curve, and hopefully the start of many more to come for Elsie."

We recently had the opportunity to take part in a family modelling shoot for Verdant Leisure at Pease Bay Holiday Park, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience.It was a full family experience for us — myself, my wife, our two children and our dog — and from the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome. The staff at the holiday park were professional, friendly and warm, and the accommodation was beautiful. We were kindly put up the night before, which made the whole experience relaxed and stress-free.The modelling day itself was exceptional. The entire crew were fantastic with both the children and our dog, making everyone feel completely at ease. As first-time models, we weren’t sure what to expect, but the team were incredibly patient and encouraging, and the kids had an absolute blast.What we particularly loved was that it didn’t feel like we were simply posing for photographs. Most of the day involved genuine family activities — playing football, enjoying the play park, building sandcastles, getting involved with the entertainment team and generally having fun together. It felt very natural, and the photographers and crew did a fantastic job of capturing those genuine family moments.The support from Models Direct throughout the whole experience was also fantastic. Their communication was excellent — they called to make sure we had arrived safely, checked in with us throughout the day and were always available if we needed anything. Gemma in particular was amazing and made the whole process flow incredibly smoothly from the modelling agency’s side. It really helped take away any nerves we had as first-time models.From the initial contact through to the actual shoot, the whole experience was incredibly well organised and enjoyable.As first-time models, we can’t wait for our next assignment and would absolutely recommend Models Direct to anyone considering getting involved in modelling.A huge thank you to everyone at Models Direct for giving our family such a fantastic opportunity and making the whole experience so enjoyable!
