Photo shoot experience.
On arrival staff introduced themselves and explained the process to happen for the day.
The stylist selected the most suitable outfits for me. This helped me to feel that my opinions were considered and valued. I have no experience in this field and I was treated as a professional model.
All staff came across very professional, friendly, passionate and knowledgeable in their various areas and ensured that I was comfortable throughout the day.
My photographer was really great and made me feel really comfortable and gave me guidance for different poses. I had outdoor and in-studio shoots, all in all great experience.
This made me feel that Agency would provide regular assignments for various projects.
The downside was that I did not had funds to buy portfolio and been asked to make decision on the spot otherwise all pictures will be deleted because of studio policy. Highly recommended for experience and if you can afford it and got spare quids go for it.

A Truly Wonderful Experience 😊
A huge thank you to Michelle for persuading me to book the shoot, Sam for explaining how the industry works and Soho Studios (Ken, Verve, Matt, The Manager “Chich Shoo Shize”) for making me feel so welcome and relaxed.
They all made my shoot a most wonderful experience. Ken selected my outfits, Verve applied make up and Matt took my photos. Their comments were encouraging, and feedback very generous.
Sam’s interview was professionally conducted. We looked at my photos and discussed the responsibilities and opportunities of being a mature model. She then presented the contract options for joining Online.
I was unable to make the decision at that point, however, my intention is to join Online and let them create my portfolio and future modelling career!
Online Models are amazing, I highly recommend you contact them if you are interested in modelling.

Day in the life of a hopefully soon to be mature model!!
My first contact from Online models was via a call with Martha. Being a complete novice I appreciated the way she explained everything, listened to my responses and we had some laughs in between I genuinely felt excited after that call!!
The day of the shoot I met Kane & Samia the Assessors (my dreams is in their hands)!!! They were LOVELY; really down to earth, genuine and honest.
This was my first experience of doing anything like this and, I can honestly say as a 50+ lady; if you feel you really want to step out to fulfil a dream of becoming a mature model...I'd recommend ONLINE MODELS because you'll get all the support, encouragement and honesty you'll need; they've been doing it a long time so if you're going to try, try them..
Simply the best!!!

What an wonderful experience
I had the best day ever. I was greeted with smiles from the staff, make up artist and photographer and fellow models to be. I was seen straight away my outfits whisked away to be selected while I had my make up done, then I was shown where to put my outfits and what the process will be. It being my first time modelling and taking professional photos I was not sure what to expect but wow I felt beautiful, pampered and spoilt on the day just fantastic. I was a blank canvas completely at their mercy and I love it. I could not stop smiling and feeling excited inside. You could tell the staff loved their jobs and the atmosphere was great. I would highly recommend online models.

I have a great time doing my photo shoot . All the staff in the studio were very friendly and right from the beginning of the session I was made to feel very confident and they all had a very positive attitude.
i really like the photographer Fadrico was always smiling and cheerful while taking photo.
I Was particularly impressed with the stylists (Tasha) outfit selection - came away with knowing how to mix and match my own pieces in a different way.
And the make up artist, who was brilliant and made me look gorgeous with different looks,
Everyone was so lovely and so friendly at the photo shoot and I would thoroughly recommend them to anyone.
Overall, I had a truly memorable experience and highly recommend Online Models

After responding to an advert for mature models I received a call from Online Models to explore whether I might have what it takes to become a model. Off of the back of that call a test shoot was arranged for me with Soho studios in London. I paid a £50 deposit for this which was returned to me on the day. I was asked to take different outfits to wear for the shoots. Having not done anything like this before I was quite nervous but everybody there put me at ease and it was a good experience . The makeup artist (Amy I think) was lovely and gave me 4 different looks for the shoots, and the photographer put me at ease even when we took photos outside with people walking past us. After the shoot I was given an in-depth report assessing my potential abilities to become a model. It was a lot of fun 🙂

Fab test-shoot experience
Friendly team - helpful and want you to get the best out of your shoot.
Was particularly impressed with their outfit selection - came away with knowing how to mix and match my own pieces in a different way.
Photos were taken both indoors and out.
Whole process is well streamlined - not much waiting at all in between outfit & make - up changes.
The assessment at the end was informative and advises you how the process works moving forward, with the opportunity to ask questions and seek clarity on anything discussed.
It's great that they want to know more about you as part of the assessment.
Sean has a great skill of making you feel at ease but equally knows what he is looking for to succeed.
I was pleased to learn On-line Models were happy to work with me and I look forward to working with them moving forward.

Fraudsters
Never pay an upfront fee to secure a photoshoot this company is a scam and has been reported to the unions as well as companies house. Also when you refuse to pay during the phone call they get quite nasty and start to sound aggressive in their tone which is solid proof of fraudster operating this. Coming from.an experienced professional who's been on the industry well over 10years

Great Experience
I stumbled upon an online advertisement seeking mature models, and it immediately caught my attention. Intrigued, I decided to apply. Shortly after, I received a message from Queen, who wanted to schedule an appointment to discuss my application. Queen was incredibly pleasant during our phone conversation and took the time to explain the entire process of working with Online Models. She conducted a brief interview to ensure that I met their criteria. To my surprise, I was invited to visit Soho Studios for my first photo shoot, where they would determine if I had what it takes to succeed in front of the cameras. They sent me all the necessary details via email, outlining what my day would entail.
Following my amazing photo shoot at Soho Studios, I was greeted by Kane, who provided further information on how Online Models operates and how they can assist me in becoming a successful model. They even created a slideshow with music, allowing me to view my pictures. Kane’s feedback made me feel confident and capable. It was reassuring to know that Kane had previous experience in this field, as he provided valuable insights into their company's operations. My experience with Online Models was truly exceptional, and I wholeheartedly recommend them as a platform for aspiring models.

A truly amazing experience
Modelling is one of those things I have always dreamt about doing. When I saw the post on Instagram about mature models, it seemed like a dream come true.
I have no experience in modelling whatsover, however, from the first contact from Oliver about thew test shoot, I knew this was for me. He explained what Online Models do, what they needed and gave me all the informarion I needed to make an informed decision. He then informed me that I had a test shoot appointment at Soho Fashion Studios.
All the staff of Online Model were very friendly and made me feel right at home. At the Soho Fashion Studio, I has an awesome experience, from the receptionists were friendly, the stylists who helped me choose the perfect outfits and styles, the make up artist, who was brilliant and made me look gorgeous with different looks, photographer, Ann who was amazing and helped with the poses. They were all very friendly and professional. After the shoot, I had an interview and was walked through the process, advised on the portfolio and shown my very lovely photos and next steps in my modelling career.
Overall, I had a truly memorable experience and highly recommend Online Models. Thank you Online Models for giving me the best birthday present I could ever ask for.

A great first experience of modelling
I have no experience in modelling so when my wife convinced me to go along for a test shoot, I didn'tknow what to expect. I initially had a telephone interview with Queen and she informed me that l had a test shoot appointment at Soho Fashion Studios. The online modelling staff, including the stylists, make up artists and photographer were extremely friendly, helpful and professional. I had a really great time at the studio and after my shoot l had a meeting with Dane who showed me my photos, which were amazing and advised me on a portfolio and possible next steps in modelling. The whole experience was truly memorable. It has given me a lot to think about. Thank you Online Modelling.
