Can I register with another agent?
Yes, of course you can. The more agencies you are registered with the more chance you have to find work
and therefore increasing your knowledge and experience which is beneficial to everyone.
Before you register with any agency make sure you have done you research. Who runs it, how long have they
been in business, see their clients list what type of work can they provide and ask about any fees.
Always make sure a proper client books you. Take precautions to ensure your best interests are being protected.
What if I am already represented by another agency?
If you are currently represented by another agency then you may want your agency to contact us on
your behalf. It is usually customary for the main agency you are with to arrange your placement with
other agencies in different markets. We do advise that you speak to your 'mother' agency so that you
do not break any contracts you have signed.
What sort of photos do I need to send when applying?
.Initially we would prefer any recent photos of you, they could be passport photos, and holiday snaps or even photos from a disposable camera so we can get an idea of what you look like and whether we want to take you on. If we feel that you
Stand Out, we will ask you to take a professional photo shoot, if you don't already have professional photos. We can organise the shoot for you and have photographers based around the country.
Do I pay for photo shoots?
There is a charge payable of £125.00 to the photographer for two hours spent with you.
Do you recommend photographers or do I have to find my own?
We do recommend professional photographers who we regularly work with and consistently take high-quality photos. We can also arrange for a hair and makeup artist to be available on the day of the photo shoot if you require.
What happens after the photo shoot?
The photographer would expect payment after the photo shoot, and in a few days they will
make your photographs available for you and
Stand Out Model Management to view. We will help you to select
your best photographs for your composite cards.
Do Stand Out Model Management charge a fee to view my photos?
Stand Out Model Management does not charge a fee to simply view potential models photos.
How much can I expect to earn as a model?
This all depends on the type of work, your experience, how many agents you register with and of course how determined you are.
Everyone has to start somewhere and this can mean anything from £50 to several hundred pounds for a half day’s work. If it's exciting, glamorous or you are becoming mildly famous we can negotiate a more substantial payment.
The entire process depends on you showing the level of commitment and professionalism required in each assignment to push yourself into higher earnings with each task you take.
How long does it usually take before I find work?
The time it usually takes to find work depends on the demand we are receiving from
clients. It could take a couple of days if a client sees your photos and immediately likes
you or it could take a few weeks.
Can you guarantee that I will get a job?
It is the client who makes the final decision whether or not the model is booked, so we cannot guarantee you will get work. However, our strict selection process ensures that we only take on models that have a commercial look and have a high probability of being offered work. Our business is based around earning commission from the assignments you undertake so it is in our best interests to find you work.
Can I turn work down?
Once a client has chosen you we will make contact to agree a day, time, date, location and fee; you
always have the choice to say no if you are busy or unavailable.
We know that modelling may just be a part time hobby and you could have other full time
commitments such as work or family so if an assignment is inconvenient, simply tell us.
We could also try to rearrange it for you.
What if I don't live in the same area as the modelling job?
An additional fee for travel could be agreed upon as part of the discussion before the assignment,
where the distance is over 20 miles. We must stress that the issue of travel fees must be discussed
before any assignment is agreed.
Could modelling be a full time job?
Modelling today is very competitive and work can be irregular so most of our models have 'normal' day
jobs to support themselves, however with enough commitment there is no reason why modelling could
not become your career.
I have just completed an assignment, whom do I speak to?
Once you have completed an assignment, contact the person who gave you the assignment. They will be eager to hear from you.
