GBAll I can say is don’t bother All I can say is don’t bother. Firstly, every registered well known company will NOT want professional to or edited photos. I would refer to select, Hugo, elite, look at the application, there are strict instructions for natural photos only. This is pointless, why bother? If your doing it for the fun of it, then fair enough, if any company is asking for money it is a con in the modelling industry. PS you do not need a portfolio, you need 4 natural photos, generally one of the face, profile, head to two and one of your choice. Please don’t put your hopes on this.

GBThank you to all people who alerted us… Thank you to all people who alerted us about the scammers! My teenage daughter (15 yo) registered with them and I became involved, pressured, to pay the deposit, book a photo shoot, and progress to sign up with them, I would do anything for my girl, as most parents would. But luckily thought just to check the reviews really quickly, so each and every one of you guys who got scammed, please know you have saved heartache and money for me and my little one.

GBThis was the worst experience ever I… This was the worst experience ever I felt like my money had been taken the make up artist and photographer was not professional at all and the company was a scam I feel awful for even giving them money, I paid them £100 and never got it back. I walked out the agency and cried please girls no one should ever make you feel this way

GBSCAM and FRAUD … Only put a star just because it would not let me continue without rating them. The London branch was the one I attended . First it was a call from someone , who put pressure on me to book a photoshoot claimed it was refundable after the shoot. Me the fool went along with it. You see I had seen their ad on Instagram. BIG MISTAKE! Then it was the crappy makeup artists that didn’t know anything about black hair and makeup. To the photographer who I must admit knew her job, just so unfortunate that she has to earn her living from such a scam and fraudulent company. Then to the consultant who was so fake that it was only after I had had some food to eat that I realised that I had made a massive mistake. The contract was one that you could not CANCEL or ask to reduce the option you chose. Who still does contracts like that? Scam artists and fraudsters. Yes, I was a victim of wanting to become a model. My mistake. And I am still paying for it because these people are still insisting that I pay for a contract that I have said I no longer want. So if you ever come across this , and you were considering going for a shoot DO NOT . They can not be trusted. I am still paying for my mistake of buying into a scam.
