"As soon as we entered UK models studio we were greeted warmly by members of staff, who immediately made myself and more importantly Mason feel at ease. Mason loved his shoot which he found fun and self-esteem building. As a parent I found UK models management team to be completely realistic on any future in the modeling industry. So Mason is now signed."
"I had a good day at the Blue rooms studio. I had never done anything like this before so was quite nervous. However, the staff were very inviting and made me feel at ease. My makeup and hair was done very nicely, not too overdone. Overall, my photo shoot went very well, but I feel this time around, I'm not quite ready to begin a career in modelling. Thanks again UK Models!"
"Going down to London for the day and having a photoshoot with UK Models was one of the best days of my life and an experience I'll remember for the rest of my life. Everyone is so nice and lovely, my makeup artist and photographer were incredible. It was such an amazing day and I can't thank UK Models enough."
"Our experience dealing with UK models is good. My daughter really enjoyed the makeup (it was extremely professional and highend) and the makeup lady was super talented. Portfolio was a little expensive but worth the money. However I don't see the point of making portfolio available only on the same day? How hard it is to save the photos and stuff for few more weeks? Seems a little bit pointless. The photoshoot, make up and the whole experience was top notch."
"I brought my 6-year-old twin girls along to the blue rooms and they had a fantastic time. They enjoyed getting their hair done by the lovely hair stylist who even let them choose their hair accessories. It was quite difficult hurrying the girls to get changed but the staff were very patient. We now have wonderful pictures around our house and two happy little girls. Thank you for the experience and now we are looking for casting agencies for twins :)"
"Everyone was kind, photographers we amazing!! Hair and beauty stylists we very nice and chatty 🙂 ! Would recommend to anyone who would like to pursue modelling!"
