Not all teenagers are cut out for modelling – but those who are, tend to find it rewarding, confidence building and, above all, great fun.
And what teenager doesn’t like having fun – isn’t that what this period of our lives is all about?
Here at Models Direct, our teen models are aged between 12 and 17 and can be of any background, size, body shape and appearance.
Our clients approach us for teen models in all their wonderful variety – after all, they want real-looking models who reflect our young people as they truly are.
Our teen models might be asked to model teen clothing or other products aimed at their age group or they may be required to form part of a modelling family for a shoot.
Here at Models Direct, we have vast experience of working with babies, toddlers, children and teenagers.
We are fully vetted and accredited by the UK government and are a genuine, registered employment agency.
We understand all the safeguarding issues around working with youngsters and we investigate each and every new client and assignment thoroughly.
We also require our teen models to be accompanied on each modelling job by a parent or guardian.
So, what should you do if you are a teenager or the parent of a teenager who is interested in modelling?
Firstly, we would ask both parents and potential models to read the reviews left for us by our existing teen models and their parents.
This will give you all a good insight into the kind of work we offer and what our models and their families think of it.
Then, if you are interested, fill in our form and wait for us to get in touch.
Please note down any questions you might have to be sure you feel our friendly agent has answered all of your queries during the discussion.
If we decide your teenager is suitable – and you decide we are the agency you are looking for – then we will give you an e-portfolio.
This completely secure portal is where you or your teen can regularly upload images so we can see exactly what they look like at any given time.
This is vital – especially with teenagers who change so often – as we can only put young people forward for work if we can see their photographs are recent.
If this is the case, then when clients approach us for a teen model meeting your younger’s description we will include them in a selection for the client to choose from.
Our teen models love having new experiences with us.
After his very first assignment, Rashan told us:
“As this was my first modelling assignment I didn’t know what to expect but Models Direct put me at ease from start to finish.
“I was given all the information I needed to understand what was expected of me and what I could expect on the day.
“Everyone was very friendly and it was a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.
“I really enjoyed the whole experience and can’t wait for my next shoot!”
And Rianna said:
“I was a bit nervous to be working with other people who were older than me, however, once I got there and met everyone, it was so fun.
“It was so exciting and I had lots of fun meeting new people.
“It is something that I would be very happy to do again and again.
“The most enjoyable part of the assignment was getting to meet other models like me who were doing their first job as well.”
