Modelling jobs and more...

I had the pleasure of participating in a shoot today, and I wanted to share my experience. The day began with a warm welcome at reception, where I enjoyed a refreshing cup before heading to the set. There, I met Chris Golding, whose exuberance whose and detailed briefing set the tone for the day. His perspective in the country setting and clear outline of the project were both engaging and informative.
Caitlin, one of the key team members then arrived, while others assumed their roles. I was particularly struck by the fact that two of the carers featured were real-life community staff. Their soothing presence and dedication brought a genuine energy which was infectious.
The photographer’s expertise was exceptional, with some great lighting and angles for every scene. The shoot was a pleasure, thanks to the variety of backdrops—kitchen, living room, bedroom, garden, and market—each thoughtfully scouted. Some scenes were bathed in soft pastel hues, while others, like the riverside walk, were beautifully dappled, creating a joyful atmosphere. The focused nature of the work yet on such a pleasant day was disciplining.
The shoot balanced the challenge of portraying the emotional weight of separation with the need to make the living accommodation accessible and appealing. Having experienced loss myself last year, I found the sensitivity with which this was handled quite moving.
Thank you for the opportunity to be part of it and I look forward to future collaborations.
Best regards, David Dean

Tuesday turned out to be an amazing day! 7.30am saw myself and two other models along with film crew in Battersea Park to shoot an advertisement feature for Birra Moretti promoting a new venture into catering. There were three vintage Fiat 500s along with their owners and the morning saw us being filmed supposedly delivering ingredients to private homes to create food for a dinner party. The highlight of this was being driven backwards and forwards over Albert bridge weaving in and out of the traffic to enable the camera crew to get the shots they needed!! We then moved to a private house to be filmed delivering ingredients and then cooking a meal. It was a fun filled afternoon with much laughter - the video and camera men were brilliant at setting up the shots they needed and so helpful in their directions. The makeup lady ensured we looked our best and supplies of refreshments were readily available when needed. As usual Molly had given clear instructions regarding requirements for the assignment - thank you Models Direct for a memorable day.

Yesterday, we had our very first family photoshoot at a popular holiday park and it was incredible from start to finish! The entire team made us feel so welcome and completely at ease.
Everything was taken care of the moment we arrived, which allowed us to really enjoy the experience.
We even brought our dog along, and he was able to join in on some of the photos. The team had people on hand to help look after him as well, which was a lovely touch.
A special thank you goes to Gemma at Models Direct, who went above and beyond behind the scenes to organise everything and ensure the shoot ran smoothly. Her clear instructions and support made a huge difference.
We’re so grateful for this opportunity. Thank you for making our first shoot so relaxed, fun, and memorable!

My daughter came to wacky warehouse today to do a some videos shoots today.
She absolutely loved it from start to finish. The people who she was working with throughout the day were amazing so kind and really funny and definitely knew there business and knew what there were doing. They were so lovely to me my daughter and my dad aswell - supplied refreshments when needed.
My daughter had so much fun she was full of smiles throughout the shoot and she said at the end of the day Mum I loved it today it was so much fun, and I loved how I felt confident and loved playing on the soft play and just being myself and having loads of fun throughout.
My daughter also mentioned how sweet the little ones were following her about especially when she was wearing world book day outfit like Where is Wally !! and when they wanted her to play with her throughout the videos she was doing really good interaction with children lots of fun and brilliant experience.
