Modelling jobs and more...

My first shoot with Models Direct today I had all the relevant information ahead of time from Gemma who was in charge of the booking and she was on hand for any questions or queries.
This enabled me to be prepared and relaxed for the day ahead.
The shoot was so much fun, I was made to feel so comfortable from the outset ....if anything it almost felt like it was over too quickly!
Gemma checked in with me again after the shoot and explained the post day process.
I am so impressed with the care taken and the communication from Models Direct and really looking forward to doing more shoots.

I want for you to know that my shoot on Friday turned out to be a 100% success and I was very satisfied to have undertaken this assignment. My only regret was the difficulty in finding the venue by relying on busses when there happened to be a tram depot just across the road! This I discovered after I left the shoot but luckily, the event had been postponed for an hour and a half - so I was in fact early! I met with Jeremy and his photographer along with another girl from Models Direct already in the car being photographed. Sorry I did not get any pre-shoot photos of the event but I really didn't want to disrupt the work going on. I didn't understand the concept of the seatbelt extender at first but now I realised how useful it would be for plus-size drivers - and why I was chosen for the shoot! All in all I cannot fault the afternoon's work and upon leaving, they appeared as pleased with me as I was with them. I hope this product will become a roaring success and I feel pleased to have been a part in its launch. Thanks for the opportunity and hope to work with Models Direct again in the near future.

"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.

Today’s photo shoot went really well! The energy on set was great, and everything came together smoothly—from the lighting setup to the direction and overall flow.
I felt confident and comfortable, which really helped bring out the best in the shots. There were definitely a few standout moments where the creative vision really clicked. I’m excited to see the final edits and feel like we captured something special. Looking forward to the next one already!
I was honestly a bit nervous at first—those pre-shoot jitters definitely kicked in. But as soon as we got started, the team made me feel so relaxed and at home. Their energy was warm and supportive, and it really helped me settle in quickly. Before I knew it, I was fully in the zone and enjoying every moment.
