Modelling jobs and more...

I was surprised that I was shortlisted for this position in Business Disability forum in University of Reading by Models Direct for the SECOND assignment.
I arrived at the University on time, which I had to informed the client by texted I was in the building (that was in the Call Sheet) and the client was very pleased and came down to meet and bring me back upstairs to the top floor and the client introduced me to her team, which I felt at ease and the photographer as well. Didn't get the chance to talk with the rest of the models when I arrive, but as day goes on, I was good to fit in nicely with the models as well.
A productive day for me, I had to work closely with the photographer (she had to walk through or around to point direction for me to take or having a small conversation with the model that I am paired with or just having an eye contact etc) and the model for showing or demonstrated how to do this or that. The client had to be involved in each department (it was nice to explore and to take part in this projects) of how the layout of myself and others models to be, as working together as a team work. Example, I had to deal with a sick patient in knowing in how much pain she could be in etc. I was also working in a laboratory using scientific methods by demonstrated it in how to or use it etc by assisting him. I got to work as staff in the University Reception and having customers come over to me and ask me questions or advice, direction, or interest of where to go etc. This is such a lovely experience for me and the rest of the models that took part in this incredible interesting Business Disability forum.
Very grateful of the outcome to this amazing assignment. Thank you so much for this opportunity! Icelia

Following our recent family photoshoot, we wanted to take the opportunity to share what a truly fantastic experience we had from start to finish.
From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel incredibly welcome by the whole team. Everyone was friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in helping us achieve the look and outcome we were hoping for. As a family, it can sometimes be challenging to coordinate everyone and keep young children engaged, but the crew made the entire process feel effortless.
The team went above and beyond to ensure the children were comfortable and entertained throughout the session. They provided colouring books, snacks, and plenty of encouragement, helping to keep the atmosphere relaxed and enjoyable. Their patience, energy, and ability to engage with the kids made a huge difference and allowed us all to enjoy the experience rather than feel rushed or pressured.
What stood out most was how naturally the crew encouraged us to interact as a family. They created a fun and relaxed environment where the children could simply be themselves, resulting in genuine smiles, laughter, and special moments together. The team's guidance helped us feel confident in front of the camera, and they were always on hand with suggestions and support to get the best out of every shot.
The whole photoshoot felt more like a fun family activity than a formal photography session. The children had an amazing time on set, and it was wonderful to see them enjoying themselves while creating memories together. The atmosphere was warm, friendly, and professional throughout, making the experience one that we will remember fondly.
We left feeling excited and grateful for such a positive experience and are now eagerly looking forward to seeing the final photographs. Based on our experience, we would highly recommend this team to any family looking for a fun, relaxed, and professional photoshoot experience. Thank you to everyone involved for making it such a memorable day and thanks to models direct for introducing us to the client!!!

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
