Modelling jobs and more...

I had an all day shoot yesterday with a national pub chain via Models Direct and I had an amazing experience.
I took part in several photo and video materials being produced throughout the day amongst 14 other models.
It was fun and engaging. Everything was of course very smoothly organised by Models Direct, which means I could just concentrate on enjoying the shoot.
The team were such a pleasure to work with, they carefully directed all of the scenes and models.
We all had a meal at lunch break and it was overall a great elpetricence.

1st timeI’d like to start by expressing my genuine appreciation for finally being given the opportunity to take part in the recent commercial shoot for Greene King at Cheadle Hulme. This was my first modeling experience with Models Direct since joining back in 2023, and overall, the day itself was incredibly fulfilling. I thoroughly enjoyed being part of a vibrant set, meeting new people, and contributing to scenes I didn’t expect to be involved in — it truly gave me a glimpse into the potential of what this career could be.
That said, I do feel it’s important to share some honest feedback regarding the process leading up to this point. While I’m grateful for the experience, I can’t ignore the fact that it’s taken nearly three years to receive my first assignment. During this time, I’ve seen others come on board and secure shoots within a couple of months, which has been difficult to witness as someone who’s been committed to the journey since 2023.
I understand that opportunities in this industry can be unpredictable, and that sometimes it’s about timing and fit. However, the wait has been disheartening at times, especially without consistent communication or clarity on how I could have improved my chances. I say this not out of complaint, but out of a sincere desire to be considered more actively moving forward.
The shoot reminded me how much I enjoy this space, and I hope this can be the beginning of more regular opportunities. I’m committed, adaptable, and ready to bring more energy and professionalism to future assignments.
Thank you again for the opportunity — I just hope it won’t take another three years for the next one.
Date of experience: 10 April 2025

On the day of my photo shoot I was a bit nervous as it was my first time but I was also really excited and eager to get started the company I worked with were really friendly and welcoming they were constantly making sure I was always alright throughout the day they provided us with meals refreshments and anything else we may have needed we started off the day getting acquainted with everyone on the team e.g(camerman ,directors ,videographer and the other models ) we then moved to a few different locations where we would take the photos the cameraman was very nice and helpful he gave clear instructions and directions as to what poses and facial expressions to make throughout the photoshoot we would take regular breaks with refreshments provided majority of the photos taken were solo but there were some group photos the company/cameraman made sure we were comfortable at all times which was very reassuring. The experience I had was extremely fun as it was easy to get along with everyone there. Before the final photoshoot we went to dinner at a restaurant and had an enjoyable time which made the experience that much more fun .I would personally say that this is similar to what I expected because overall it was a photoshoot but I didn’t expect to have such a great time and a thrilling two days . To sum it all up I had an amazing experience for my first photoshoot the people I worked with were great I was extremely happy with the way I was treated and is something I would most definitely like to do again

Hello I would just like to thank Gemma who has been my agent for quite a few years.. Thanks you….
