Modelling jobs and more...

I joined Models Direct after I took semi-retirement and had a bit more spare time on my hands. I am a fairly confident person and love meeting new people. I wanted to do something completely different and it seemed like a fun and interesting thing to do. This was my first assignment and I was booked to pose as part of a couple using Airport Parking Facilities for a holiday company. The assignment took place near Aberdeen Airport and was over three days. I didn't quite know what to expect, but I needn't have worried as the crew were fantastic at putting me at ease and explaining exactly what they needed from me. I thoroughly enjoyed working with my partner and the crew and learned about the process of shooting an advert. I found the whole experience totally enjoyable and really exciting, and would certainly like to do more work like this in the future. I think it has been a great move for me to join Models Direct as they have managed the whole booking process with professionalism. They have also been extremely encouraging and supportive.

The client and the other model were lovely and I really enjoyed the morning.
We did have a giggle pretending to be patients for the morning! Hopefully there are some great shots for the new website.
The Models Direct manager who prepared me for the shoot was very knowledgeable and helpful.
Looking forward to the next one!

LUXURY PET CLOTHING AND ACCESSORIES
When I saw the advertisement from Models Direct for a dog model, our Sid sounded like he'd fit the bill! He had recently modelled in a local photo shoot for a clothing brand and he was the star of the show!The shoot we attended was for a London based dog clothing and accessories brand that are launching this September and needed some photos for the website and other relevant media. It helped when I was giving Sid commands so that he posed well, and he also got lots of treats for being good. He sat well for what they needed and fell asleep a few times on set - which was sometimes perfect for the image of the photo, but sometimes we did have to wake him up!As he is only five months we were a little worried about his reaction to trains, tubes and the business of London travelling in peak times but he was brilliant and even fell asleep a few times on the journey.The best part of the day for Sid was all the fuss and treats he was getting. He learnt a lot from the day and it did wonders for his training. It’s certainly made me more confident in taking him places and being able to trust his behaviour in different circumstances and environments.I would recommend to other puppy owners to do something like this because it’s excellent for socializing your pup and getting some lovely photos of them while they are still small!We would love to do more of these shoots and hope to build him a portfolio that will allow us to do so more often. It was a great experience for him so we would like to keep it going!

First Family Shoot
We had such an amazing time on our very first family modelling shoot at Woolacombe Bay Holiday Park. The day was packed with fun – from swimming and water slides to the wave surfer, adventure golf, the restaurant and even the beach. It didn’t feel like “work” at all, just a really fun day together as a family.
Kevin and Guy were brilliant – so easy to get along with, very professional and made us feel comfortable straight away. They guided us through everything step by step which really helped, especially as it was all new to us.
A huge thank you to Gemma too – she was incredible from start to finish. She kept in touch the whole way through, always quick to reply to our questions, and just so friendly and reassuring. She made the whole process smooth and stress-free, which meant we could just relax and enjoy the experience.
Thank you Models Direct for such a brilliant opportunity – we had a blast and would love to do it again!
