Model and Talent Agency’s work in many different ways, sometimes this makes it tricky to know what you might be getting when joining the Models Direct books! That’s what our experienced team are here for….
Having been in business for nearly 30 years, Models Direct understands the importance of communication with our talent, that’s why we have a dedicated team of experienced and committed Agents at the end of the phone to guide you through your modelling career.
Some of the Agents in the team have been with Models Direct pretty much from the start and others have been part of this tight team for 10 years +, so they really know their business and what a model can expect while being represented by Models Direct.
I worked exclusively with Marie Brown. She was at all times courteous, informative, timely and professional. Particularly as this was my first time using a modelling agency, I greatly appreciated Marie’s advice and patience.
The talent/modelling industry is harsh and competitive at times, it is littered with rejection and knock backs, ego’s can be flying high and often budgets low, so balancing models/clients expectations can be a tricky job for us Agents!
For this reason having an Agent to represent you is so vital, Models Direct have 30 years experience of working with clients of all sizes and budgets, helping them find the perfect models for their campaign – managing expectations is something we do daily!
Working as a modelling family is a mixture of excitement and apprehension. As any mum knows if your going anywhere with your children you want them to be on there best behaviour.
This is no different on a photo shoot, so when your asking 3 of your children to stand up straight, smile, look happy continuously while taking direction from the photograph as well it can be challenging.
Luckily, we work with Models Direct and have always been so well looked after, from lunches being put on for the children, to overnight accommodation, to letting the children have 15 minutes time out so they can chill, go on there iPad etc.
We have now had 7 assignments and I can’t believe how lucky we are my son says its all down to his fantastic good looks.
When I first signed up to Models Direct I was a little sceptical hearing stories of people paying thousands of pounds for pictures to be done because the agency they had chosen had asked them to do so then signing a 3-year deal and not getting a single job. When I spoke to Molly for the first time from the Models Direct agency she immediately put my mind at easy, she said she only needed photos that we had taken are self’s nice natural photos work the best, so the client can get a real feel for who you are and how you look in front of a camera. I told my children if we were lucky enough to get 1 job we would be extremely lucky.
Here we are several years later and now on our 8th job. We have managed to do so much with our extra money that has come in from our jobs, just little things like being able to spoil the kids a little, to a weekend away for the family to now having our garden landscaped and having a hot tub fitted.
My husband and I are so proud of our children and though its hard days working, keeping up with the photograph and the clients needs . We now would never look back and look forward to the next 7 assignments.
