Sales trap in disguise. BE CAREFUL

I had a photoshoot trial with this modeling platform, which advertised they were looking for mature models. It was explained over the phone that if I passed the test, they would keep photos and promote me to different jobs in exchange for a 20% cut for each job as their honoraries. The photo studio was well-equipped, and all staff members were pleasant and professional. However, the team representing Online Models turned out to be a sales team with quite blunt, aggressive techniques to push me to buy a portfolio as a way to promote myself as a model. In their pitch, they contradicted themselves several times. They ended up highlighting they were a modeling platform, not an agency, and that they would promote me to modeling agencies. In a nutshell, an intermediary of an intermediary. They were trying to push me to fall into the blind desire to be a model and create a sense of urgency to buy a rather expensive portfolio with mediocre photos. Their approach was very off-putting, and I left with a sense of not wanting to model.
The day after, I received an email with a report on how well I did. Which I find very amusing because, on the day of the meeting, they failed to go through such a report and give me proper feedback as they were too focused on their sales pitch.
If you honestly want to do mature modeling or any other type of modeling, approach modeling agencies directly rather than answering to ads that are deceiving photo sales traps.
You can find a directory of modeling agencies on the government page gov. UK by reaching "companies" and then "modeling."

YOU CAN ALSO APPROACH The British Fashion Model Association for support and guidance at bfma.fashion

A professional and dedicated team

What an amazing team of professionals. A fantastic eye for detail creating looks from casual right through to glitzy glam.

When I arrived I was a little apprehensive but this soon disappeared as I become swept up in the atmosphere. A great vibe in the studio, professional without pressure. The feedback after the shoot was detailed and constructive.

I would like to thank Online Models for investing their time in me and giving me the opportunity to start an exciting new career.

I feel like I need to write another…

I feel like I need to write another review. To warn people about this spineless people. I remember I was crying in the office telling than that I can afford this I have 2 kids and they still emotionally abused me to make me buy the packages, offered that they will be on my side to help me succeed. Didn’t heard from them again. I tried to call it was turned off. Now I am blaming myself- lesson learned in hard way but please please don’t fall for it and if I can save another person from this it will makes me happy, I will be writing here and try to stop this unethical behaviour! So wrong 🤮

I’m still buzzing…

I’m still buzzing from my test photoshoot on 29th January. On arrival, I was greeted with warm smiles and a very friendly atmosphere. My case was whisked away, and 4 outfits were put together for me.
My makeup artist was Sasha, who worked her magic on me, and again, was very friendly, taking the makeup and hair levels from casual to glamorous over the 4 shoots, 2 of which were literally on the streets of Soho.
Lorenzo, the photographer was a very pleasant, and funny guy, and put me at ease in minutes, guiding me through the process, after all, I’m a complete novice,
After the 4 shoots, it was assessment time, and I got to see my photos, I almost didn’t recognise myself.
No matter what happens going forward, it was a fantastic experience, and I can’t thank the guys, and girls, at Online-models, and, Soho Fashion Studio, enough for that.
I’ve not felt this good about myself in years 🩷x

Maxine's Looking forward to Working with you...

After filling out my application I was contacted quite quickly which I was happy about. I was then booked in for an experience I will never forget. Looking at the standard of their photos I felt confident that they would attract more modelling work for me. The portfolio I previously was using, clearly needed updating, which was obvious when I was provided with my new photos from my photoshoot which had 3 different looks.
Thank you so much, Online Models, you made me look like a Pro! Thank you so much for all your hard work, it didn't go unnoticed.

Great experience, after the photo session I had a chance to sit with one of members of online modelling who explained all about how they operate and what sort of opportunities they can offer me. They loved my photos and I am told I am very adaptable and easy to work with. Found them very encouraging and supportive. Hopefully I will have lot more opportunities to work with them
