Overall my first model shoot with Models Direct went really well, gave me a chance to get some experience within the model industry and see how everything works on shoot day.
Met some lovely people on the day and also worked along side other Model Direct clients which was all good experience for myself.
I can’t wait for more opportunities to come.

Hi, I want to say first of all how helpful, enthusiastic and supportive Gemma was at every stage of my experience modelling so successfully once again for Models Direct.
I was glad to do it for such a good cause too - Alzheimer's Research UK and found it a very interesting and eye opening experience.
The crew I worked with were all really lovely people. I found them welcoming, warm and they offered very helpful guidance and positive feedback throughout the process. I could see how passionate they were about Alzheimer's UK. My partner for the day was very pleasant and we got on well.
All in all an excellent experience. I'm very happy to have been selected for the shoot.

Everybody at Karndean Flooring was most welcoming and made both Fleur (my Great Dane) and I feel at home. We had to complete 3 different shots - two stills and one video. The crews were very patient and explained exactly what they wanted so I was able to direct Fleur accordingly. Fleur and I would definitely like do similar work in the future. The whole day was worthwhile and the venue was very suitable for animals as there was plenty of space for exercising them between shots. My advice to other aspiring pet models and owners? Relax and give it a go!

I had my 2nd booking today. It was a charity photoshoot for Alzheimer's UK to raise awareness and health information about brain health.
I was so warmly welcomed. It was a great and very enjoyable time all through the entire photoshoot. There were various activities for each section of the photoshoot - reading, catching up with a friend, playing a board game (scrabble), cooking, dancing, gardening, playing a musical instrument, making a video call, the outdoors - out for a walk and also reading a book at the bus stop.
I commend the team who were all fantastic, amazingly wonderful and worked so well together. I was so impressed with their professionalism and beautiful attention to detail. I thank Models Direct immensely for a special and memorable day. Thank you.

I had a great time on the shoot on Monday 30th September. All the people there were lovely and very welcoming, they made me feel at ease from the first moment and they were amazing to work with. The communication from Models Direct prior to the shoot was also fantastic, as was the communication following the shoot. Overall it was a great experience and I had a lot of fun and felt welcome from the start.

The photoshoot at Canary Wharf for the Eden project was a great experience. The client was professional and friendly. The photographer, along with the client, were very clear in their instructions and this made a very positive and efficient environment ensuring the shoot was completed in good time.I'd be very happy to work with them again

Th assignment was fun and challenging. In one sentence being a model for the day felt great and fulfilling. The best thing about the assignment was the people i worked with were very warm so that made the job a lot easier than i thought. I was asked to do some photo shoot with football,playing pool,playing
computer solitaire game, i also had to get on the bus into town to do
another photo shoot going in and out of a Pub,Supermarket, using the
Cash Machine and posing to be shopping and finally paying at the
checkout counter.
