Modelling jobs and more...

First I would like to thank Gemma and Charlie for their constant care and support at Models Direct. My latest shoot in care home was an amazing day. Helping to support those amazing people in there both residents and the staff. My day working alongside other models from Models Direct was amazing some as carers some like me as a resident and another playing a chef. With the chef I went through what I would like to eat for the day from the menu...filming walking around the grounds....chatting to other residents or the carers. Having a dance with another resident to keep us fit.....it is a full day filming with three very professional camera men who kept us informed as how they wanted a scene done....please be committed and the smile at the end of the day must be the same at at the beginning. A wonderful day...ready to do another....

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

Excellent service and wonderful experience.
I had my first booking with Models Direct today. It was a Charity Photoshoot to raise awareness about Crohn's and Colitis.
It was a moving experience meeting and speaking people with Crohn's Disease. They were really kind and very open to discussions, which I found insightful.
The ambience all through the charity shoot was very welcoming and so lovely. The term, models and all were all so pleasant and inclusive and so it felt more like a wonderful outing with family and friends. This made me feel less nervous and more relaxed.
All the information I received from Gemma from the initial telephone call, emails and messages up to the date of the shoot was most helpful. Thank you Gemma. Thank you so much. I had a great experience and I thank Models Direct immensely for the opportunity of being a part of this amazing charity shoot.
Date of experience: 21 February 2025

Arrived at a very beautiful venue and warmly welcomed by the filming crew. Was showed around the venue and offered drinks and some breakfast! Had quick wardrobe check and then got ready for some shots. Was a very friendly team and made me feel very comfortable. It was also really fun. Although this was a last minute booking we were fully informed and Models Direct checked in with us at the end of the day to see how it had gone.
