The Competitive World of Modelling

Modelling in London




Image Models is one of the best known and most established agencies in London. We work with models all over the world of all ages, genders and body types. We work with petite models, plus size models, male models, teen models, and even body part models. All our models have one thing in common: confidence. 

Confidence is key to making it in anything. Confidence gives you the persistence you need to not give us or accept defeat. I was recently watching an interview with the actor from Breaking Bad who plays 'Jesse'. He said that all the TV channels he took the show to refused it apart from one. This epic blockbuster's potential was only seen by one studio in America. He didn't give up after facing rejection and neither do our models. 

If you need a confidence boost today, and want to compare yourself to hot celebrities and feel good. look at this image below showing the immense power of Photoshop to fool the public. 



If you live in London, why not look up Image Models. They are the most flexible and hard working modelling agency in London. If you want to know more about them or register, visit the Image Models website now.

IMAGE Models Reviews

Image Models is a modelling agency in London. The work with all different kinds of models and have fantastic assignments across the UK. Register with them on their website now. Here are two recent reviews:



The assignment on Saturday in Oxford was a different and unique experience for me as I had to play a superhero character 'Pump' for Medikidz, a medical communications company.  Seeing the Oxfordshire greenery was fantastic. Abby, the director of the assignment, was absolutely lovely to work with; she ran through all what was needed of me and made me feel comfortable straightaway. The location for the assignment was at Oxford's Crown Plaza Hotel, which if you don't know is a beautiful top class venue.  Overall, loved everything about the Medikidz assignment. A BIG shout out to Molly at Image Models, I appreciate you so much and thank you very much for putting me forward for selection.

I had the best day working on a wedding shoot for Victoria Mitchell Photography just outside of London. The female model was amazing and the creative team were so nice. The shots reflected the energy on the day; just magical. Thanks 
Image Models, I would do it all again tomorrow!  This assignment was different from any of my previous work with TM but very enjoyable, it was a pleasure to work with them. get to go to some amazing places and meet so really great people. I personally joined Image Models because I saw that they gave opportunities to so many people and the feedback was very reliable.

IMAGE Models: What you need to know!

Need work as a model? Look no further!


Whether you live in the city or not, modelling jobs are everywhere. All across the country, every day, hundreds of adverts are being shot and thousands of models and actors working towards their dreams! IMAGE Models advertise a lot of these assignments and find the right models for the right jobs every day. The only way we can keep going is by doing a good job so we do our best six days a week!

IMAGE Models

Do IMAGE do Exclusive Contracts?

In our experience, we have found exclusive modelling contracts to be very limiting for our models. We do operate with non-exclusive contracts which means that our models are free to find their own work and also be signed with other agencies. This works out best for both parties as the model has freedom and so do we!

How do I get involved in this business?

IF you are interested in becoming a model on a part time basis then IMAGE Models can help. Generally, the range of assignments coming in is so broad, and each model is so unique, that there is only a certain proportion of assignments that any individual can be suitable for at any one time. Understanding this is really important, especially for younger models who may get disappointed during slow patches. If you've experienced that, its nothing to do with you or your look - just what the clients want at any given time!

Getting in Touch with IMAGE Models

By following the IMAGE Models blogs you can keep up to date with the latest news from our agency and see reviews from models who have recently completed assignments. If you'd like to drop us a message, we're always available on the IMAGE Models Facebook page so feel free to ask about anything you're unsure of!

London's Modelling Agency

IMAGE Models

Whether you have been a model before, are currently working as one, or are simply thinking about making a start you will surely have some idea of what a modelling agency's job is. To explain the role of a modelling agency, it's best to look first at the role of the model. 

A model is an actress, a business person, their own boss, and their own employee. Sound confusing? It's not that complicated! An actress wears a face and moves in a certain way to let the audience know what she's doing and thinking. A model also does this and depending on the product or garment being advertised the range of tasks demanded from the model differs greatly. A model is a business person because they have to represent themselves, chase leads and manage their own time. As a model you're also your own boss and your own employee - this is where many models stumble! You may have a modelling agency like IMAGE Models behind you, but it's also your responsibility to work for yourself. IMAGE Models are a non-exclusive agency meaning that you can get modelling work from elsewhere while you are on our books. This arrangement suits most men and women as it is less constrictive.

A modelling agency can do their bit and find modelling jobs and assignments but when they pass your photos and information over to potential clients it's your job to make sure that everything is presentable, up to date and gives you the best chances of securing your first job. After the first time you'll notice it's much easier as you have direct experience in the area and clients will be more confident in their choice. Visit the IMAGE Models website if you are interested in applying for the latest assignments.

Advice from IMAGE Models

Is IMAGE Models Right for me?

Any search for 'london modelling agency' or similar will bring up a very long list of agencies like IMAGE Models. Working your way through the options, and trying to see through the sales pitches can be very tricky especially if you have little to no experience of the modelling industry. 


How can I spot a bad agency?

From looking at websites alone this can be quite hard. The easiest way to find other peoples' feedback is to search for reviews. If they are mostly positive, then that agency should be on your 'maybe' list. Conversely, if a lot of news articles and bad stories appear then make a note never to consider them again. Once getting in touch with an agency, try to determine whether they are giving a sales pitch or not. Often, the ones with the best pitches are the ones to avoid! They also commonly charge several thousands of pounds to be on their books, while giving zero guarantee of paid work. 

What makes IMAGE stand out?

We don't believe in the pay-to-play mentality that many agencies hold. We do however ask for a small registration fee in most cases to cover our administration costs during the time you are on our books. Once registered, you can apply for as many of the assignments we post online as you like. You can clearly see which ones are suitable for you and take control of what you want to apply for. Many other agencies never even post assignments and keep you in the dark. We are a regulated employment agency, just like a regular job agency, but we only do modelling and talent placements. If you want to find out about our latest jobs, visit the IMAGE Models website. Also you can read some reviews from models after their day(s) photoshoots on the IMAGE Models Reviews blog.

IMAGE Models: London’s Modeling Agency

IMAGE Models: London’s Modeling Agency

Whether you are working full time or looking for work, modelling can be a great way to meet new people and see a new side to life. The question that most people will have though, regardless of age, is how to begin. Anyone who says they never stand in front of a mirror and strike some poses is a liar! Turn that ambition into something real with IMAGE Models.

Things to consider when choosing an agency

When you want to signup with a modelling agency like IMAGE Models, there are some points you should always consider – especially if you are acting on behalf of your child. The first thing is to look for reviews and see what other people have to say about certain agencies. Many people get caught up in the excitement and neglect to question the legitimacy of an agency – a lot of the time thankfully nothing bad happens, but there are some agencies who will only rip you off with no chance of work.

If your child or teen has been selected for an assignment, find out as much as you can about it beforehand. See who the company is, the exact location, how long it will last, and essentially everything you can. IMAGE Models vet all clients to ensure that the jobs we post are legitimate and safe but some agencies aren’t so careful.

If you want to get in touch with us, contact us through the IMAGE Models website. We have a small team of dedicated staff who handle all communications and assignment management who would love to hear from you.

Male Model Review



I was a bit nervous for Zachary before his assignment but he seemed fine - we explained the job to him beforehand and that seemed to help.  Zachary really enjoyed the day.  The staff there were very friendly and looked after him well - they knew how to interact with a child which I think really helps. Zachary had no issues following their friendly direction. They provided a range of food for him which he was particularly happy about and were not pushy at all.
Zachary was photographed in various positions playing with Ravensburger's new puzzles, drawing aids and it all finished in a timely manner.
