Melbourne bridal, fashion and swimwear models
wanted
for paid modelling work.
Paid
modelling work is available in Melbourne on selected dates in September
2010, for hair, makeup, fashion, bridal and swimwear modelling.
Shoots are
also available in September, October and November 2010. The criteria for new model selection are
outlined below. Modelling work is demanding. It takes concentration and
commitment. Part of that concentration is completing the form correctly
- please don't waste our time or yours by winging it, thinking "it will
be OK". I can assure you it won't be!
This web page is the final page of our old web site, it urgently needs replacement. The new design is complete, the new web site is online, and we just need a model for the images. You need to be able to see yourself in images like those which appear in the scroller below. For this shoot, if you are around 165cm in height, your ideal weight would be 55-57 kg. If you are 175cm in height then we'd be looking for a model around 63-67kg. Our lenses tend to take a size or more OFF the model, so for this one, these criteria are important. You need to be able to do a beach or waterfall location shoot in this weather - I guarantee you that if you are the successful person in applyng for this role, the images we produce will be the best you'll get. You must mention the word "covergirl" in your aplication. Make the pictures you send in to us RELEVANT.
How you look is everything. Don't put yourself at a disadvantage by sending lousy photos. The number of people who ring me and say "I really do look better - they were just bad shots I sent in...".
Wait until you have better photos.
Our shoots
need models with soft feminine looks, facial features that are clean
and well defined, in the form of the classic beauties of Hollywood's
golden era. You need to be in proportion, but definitely not thin. The
ideal photos to send in to us, are simple shots from home, not some halfwit
internet photographer's effort at "art", and cetainly not photos
from a mobile phone you have held out at arm's length, nor photos from
a webcam. Do you really think that this is the way to apply for a modelling
job?
These
are shoots for publication in print and web advertising, so we base a
large part of our initial filtering on your appearance in the pictures
you send in.
We will not
waste your time with meetings or interviews. We will only call you in
if we are confident we can offer you something paid, right away. We are
not an agency. We don't "sign up" models, we don't shoot portfolios,
despite countless requests.
We are professional
photographers who regularly shoot commercial work for print and web advertising,
and prefer to source our own models, rather than work with agencies,
who "themselves" can be more maintenance than an ice cube in the tropics.
To be eligible for the above opportunities,
you need to have a hairstyle which is "single" color- no multicolor,
no foils, no tips, very conservative, ideally around shoulder length
or a little longer. You need well defined cheek bones, and symmetrical
features. We prefer people with fair to lightly tanned complexion, and
between size 8 and size 12. The requirement is not for "myspace" type
photos. The successful model applicant will be in a campaign using BEAUTY shots-
so please consider the above carefully before you select your pictures
to email in. Read the section further down this page in red,
and please do not make mistakes in your application. Even if you are
the next "supermodel
of the world" we reject any application which has an error. This
is not a social modelling site of the internet, where people beg for
comments and acknowledgement, nor are we an agency. If you fit the criteria
we will employ you as a model. If not, then we won't. No career counselling,
no meetings which lead to nothing, no time wasting - not yours, not ours.
It is imperative that you read the section in red further
down this page. Harsh? Yes. Take money off you and waste your time with
empty promises? No.
Do you see yourself as a high flyer?
We've secured a tremendous "one off" opportunity
for three lucky female models between 18 and 32, sizes 8 - 12, to model
on the tarmac with a very sexy Learjet. This jet is hot - it looks absolutely
terrific, and it is based in Melbourne. Work with our team - makeup and
hair styling will be provided, as well as basic outfits.
Be sure to mention "Learjet Shoot" on
your application form, if you complete one. This is a great opportunity
for modelling in a different environment and location. Images used for
web advertising. Shots will be taken inside the jet- whch has a stunning
boardroom style interior conference area, as well as on the tarmac at
the airport. It's all organized- we just need the right talent to fit
the selection criteria.
If you've always wanted to be a magazine model, in a
news stand magazine, and wondered where to start - this might be just
the opportunity you need to get you going. No agency fees, no photography
fees, no charges for anything - if we feel confident that we can place you into something, you
will get an interview, if we cannot, then you won't.
At the interview it's up to you - provided that you loook like the person in the pictures you sent in to us, the rest will lbe determined by your attitude and how suited to the shoot you are. We are not an agency,
we do not charge models fees, we do not sell memberships. We are professional
photographers who regularly shoot for magazines, and prefer to source
our own models, rather than dealing with model agencies.
Models wanted now, for fashion,
swimwear and bridal modelling.
Modelling work and modelling shoots are available in Melbourne on selected
dates in September, October and November in 2010.
Makeup Modelling and Demonstration, Hair Modelling
and Hair Demonstration in Melbourne City and South East.
Shoots for this assignment
are regular and ongoing during 2010 and 2011. These
shoots involve everything from simple makeup looks, to bridal makeup
and more extravagant theatrical and alternative styles. Models with short,
long and intermediate hair length will also be required for hair style
modeling- no cutting or coloring involved. Images are destined for print
publication in advertising, and for use on the web. You need to be available
in the South East of Melbourne, during the evening, and have your own
transport. The look is very specific for this shoot- ideally models with
well defined facial bone structure- and female (yes a lot of guys have
offered...) with all skin types and ethnicities being considered. Your
look needs to radiate absolute softness, femininity and beauty. You need
to have the facial characteristics that could see you as the face for
a major beauty campaign - that the final images would not rely on image
retouching - that you would present the beauty to the lens at the time
of image capture.
If you are interested in any of
these- or other shoots
on this page, complete an expression of interest form here,
and send it in to us. Remember to carefully follow the instructions on
the form!
PLEASE ensure you read the form carefully-
and complete it accurately!
If you are NOT from Victoria, (we get a staggering number of applications
from interstate- NSW and QLD-and overseas-the USA, UK and Africa) consider
how you plan to get to our studio for an interview- whilst it's great fun
filling in forms and emailing pictures off, (if that's your thing) you
want it to ideally lead
to something- not
just take up time for no result. Please don't waste our time or yours.
We look at the realistic viability of working with applicants, and treat
requests accordingly. Simply put, if you're not local to where our shoots
are, there's no point sending in an application.
We get an absolutely overwhelming number of useless
applications- people from the UK - and they expect to be here for an
interview when..? - kids from interstate just wasting time - it's amazing
that so many people have so much time on their hands. Go do some volunteer
work for a charity - do some good for the community!
If you really want
to waste time, go to an agency and hand them money!
That way you're doing two things really efficiently- wasting time and wasting
money.
So... DON'T make any mistakes on
the form- send in GOOD COLOUR photos.
Your face should be clearly visible in the shots; don't wear
a hat, don't wear sunglasses- no matter how good you think you look
in them. See that the lighting in the photo is even, and that the full
length photo of you is a "standing
up" shot,
taken from the front. Ensure that in your photos, you are not sitting
down, or lying down. We need to see how you look, standing
up.
And please don't wear black- it's not a good color for definition of
the human form. Try to send in pictures that do you justice- pictures in
which you are well lit and pictures which show us how you look- you'd be
amazed at what we get sent to us.
DO NOT send photos with more than one person in
them-
everyone has a digital camera these days- get some simple, clear and
up to date snapshots done. That's all you need! Nothing creative- no
"student portfolio" type pix- simple, normal pictures please.
Here's a hint- one of the first things we look at is
what's "in" the photo- how much effort, how much thought- and
how accurately the picture follows the guidelines we set out. How accurately
did the applicant read the guidelines on this page? Two people in the
photo when we ask for one? Disqualified instantly. Read the hints and
tips further down this page for best results.
If you need to contact us, do so during business hours
only, on our studio number. That number is 03 9554 3279. This is
for two main reasons- we're a professional studio, not a 'work from home'
scenario, and to get feedback on your pix, or anything else- we need
to be online during your call. Most of the time after hours, we're nowhere
near a computer. And the guidelines say to call 48hrs (2 business days)
after sending your pix in, not 10 minutes later. Reason? Most people
forget- which sends us the message that they're not serious about modelling-
that they're just sitting online, sending in pix "for something to do",
expecting the "big contract" to land in their email. It will- when you
finally get one of those "free" laptops you always seem to win...
There is no "yellow brick road", and certainly no "Oz" at the end of
it!
Paid fashion magazine
and swimwear modelling work is available for models in Melbourne
and Victoria during October and November 2010. Shoots are in
studio, and on location- for formal and bridal magazines, and commercial
assignments. If you look good, feel happy about yourself and can see
yourself in shots like the photos appearing on this page, complete
an expression of interest form further down this page. be sure to check
out the images in the scroller below. Shoots are avilable now for styles
similar to those you see in the photos below.
Summer is but a few months away... we need swimwear shot to help rebuild this page, which will become
part of our new wedding
photography Melbourne website, so if you would like to grace the
cover of the modelling section, be sure to write the word "covergirl"
in the text area of your application.
Calendar style swimwear shoots in some of Victoria's hottest photography
spots! The weather might be cooling off -but the light is fantastic!
If you love the beach and water, and look great in swimwear, then we
can offer you some terrific swimwear modelling opportunities. Calendar
style swimwear shoots are available right now. Ideally you would be in
your 20s or early 30s, with a size 10-12 figure- we want to show that
normal people can look terrific- that you don't need to be a bean pole
to look great. Enjoy styling (hair, makeup and accessories) by our own
stylist- who is an accomplished model herself. Shoot in some terrific
locations close to home. Have a great time- and produce great images-
with your chance to ask a professional model unlimited questions during
the shoot! Learn industry tips, get the inside info- much more truthfully
and far more accurately than you would from any agency.
Work for models and paid modelling opportunities are
available in Melbourne right now.
Assignments vary in style- from formal wear and bridal,
to swimsuit- and we need models now! Take a look at the pix in the scroller
below, and decide whether or not you could see yourself in images like
the ones shown here.
So you want to be a fashion/swimwear/bridal
model?
Modelling- whether fashion swimwear or bridal, is not easy to get into.
People spend lots of money on agents to learn later, that there are no "easy
short cuts" into
the industry.
Who does the agent work for? The model? The client?
The agent works for the agent- if the needs of the client
and model ( in that order ) can be met along the way, then it's a bonus.
The agent's primary aim is to make money- not to secure work for the
models. Any agent's primary income is from signups- registrations- memberships-
anything which involves the model handing over money to be a part of.
If an agent is confident they will make money from onselling you as a
model, they will sponsor your photos, website, comp cards and more. If
they have the cheek to ask you for money for ANY of this- then turn and
head for the door. You are only funding THEIR lifestyle, at the expense
of your own. Don't pay money to dream- you can do it for free when you sleep.
If you are searching for a model agency, ask your questions carefully
and choose wisely. The standard of service drops off very quickly when
the money has been handed over- and lip service is cheap - phone calls
to "keep in touch" are NOT modelling assignments! You want "the
jobs"
- not a "new best friend" by phone or email. Agencies work,
knowing that there is a percentage of people desperate enough to hope
for glory, that they will hand over money to dream. If you are prepared
to do this- then know that you went in well informed from this article-
and you only have yourself to blame for the lack of return, if that's
the case. Understandably when emotion and desire are strong enough, the
human brain lets logic slip out through the window... sometimes a very
costly excercise down the track.
Child modelling agencies, children's modelling agencies
in Melbourne
If you're searching for a children's model agency- whether
Melbourne or anywhere else, to represent your kids, be even more careful-
agents are well versed in hot button selling tactics, and laying on the
charm for the parents. Flatter the child a bit, rave on about "accepting
the applicant",
which shifts the focus from the interviewer's (the agency's) performance
credentials to the applicant /parent wanting something that they "might
lose". "Desire for gain" is a huge motivator- and so is
the "fear
of loss". Keep your head screwed on- if you want to throw money
away with a child model agency, give your money to the Bonnie Babes Foundation,
where it will do some GOOD for children. You'll sleep much better- and
so will the kids. Don't fall victim to it- don't put your children with
a childrens' model agency to prove something to a friend or relative,
or because strangers have told you that your "child should be a
model"-
people say this to you, when they cannot think of anything else to say,
or if them telling you that your child is "cute" may be a bit too forward,
or politically incorrect.
Give them- the agents- NO money for ANYTHING until they deliver-
work for your child.
We get about eight requests per week to recommend the best child modelling
agency in Melbourne. The answer is simple- the best kids modelling agency
in Melbourne is the one which can place your child into a job right
now.
No fees, no admin costs, no photography charges- just a job sheet handed
to you, and the money in YOUR bank account, not theirs. If you are the
principal of a child or kids modelling agency in Melbourne, and can demonstrate
to us that you really "do" fit the bill, we can refer many people to
you.
Child Modelling Melbourne- attributes and signs which
suggest your child may rise above the rest!
Ok- so you're still keen- convinced your child can be
a star. If you're child is exceptionally well behaved, in almost all
circumstances, almost all of the time ("not many children are", you
think- and true- even fewer children succeed at child modelling...) and
if you're child is mentally mature beyond the physical age- while, at
the same time looking younger than they really are- the odds may be tipped
slightly in your favour.
You see, it's best to work with an older child that looks younger- and
some children are just naturally always happy, and take very easily to
strangers. Children (and grown ups) need to time themselves around shoots-
it doesn't go the other way around. A child which is always having "a
good day" is more than half way there.
"So how many children are really like this?", you ask?
About as many as do succeed at child modelling. Very few indeed. One
thing's for sure- the world doesn't "owe" somebody a modelling career,
just because they want one.
Can you make it on your own, with excellent self promotion
and management? In a word "yes".
Competition is fierce- you can't afford to take your eye off the ball
for a second!
There are some basic commonsense things you can do to enhance your chances-
you can read about them below.
If you've ever wondered whether or not you have "what it takes" to be
a model, find out now, by completing our "expression of interest" form here and
attaching two photos.
You won't be invited for an interview unless we are sure we can give
you an almost immediate start- and it won't cost you a cent!
It is imperative that your form doesn't contain ANY errors.
Absolutely NO mistakes.
We can't stress
this enough. We've been getting up to 12 forms a day, and sometimes not
even one is completed correctly.
It's an easy road if you fit the criteria- each person brings their own
uniqueness to the assignment- it's a matter of how well you can fill the
brief.
One very important thing is that if you choose to complete
an application form, the form must be completed correctly. Two photographs-
not one- should be attached to the form. Please read the guidelines carefully.
We reject incorrectly completed forms.
Remember you came to this site looking for work to earn money,
not to spend money.
Further down this page you can read the facts- and get a brief glimpse into what
it takes to make a go of it- tips to get you in with the best chance.
Enjoy.

There have been many requests recently from people for us to shoot
portfolio updates.
Unfortunately we are unable to help; we're very
busy with weddings and a huge amount of commercial and magazine work,
and regrettably, must decline these requests.
What's the advantage of pursuing a self-managed
career as a model- as opposed to joining an agency? What are the
benefits and pitfalls?
As a self managed model, you are responsible for sourcing
your own work, responding to enquiries, securing your job bookings, turning
up, and collecting the money. It's not quite as daunting as it sounds-
for someone who is truly passionate about success, the road is quite
easy- as there are so many who simply don't turn up on shoots- that the
opportunities for the "good ones" are out there! Photographers
are continually on forums, expressing disappointment at models who fail
to show up- if you can gain a reputation as a reliable model, word will
spread quickly, and you will be streets ahead of 95% of others out there.
All for following basic courtesy and commonsense!
The downside to all this, is that you need to be your
own manager, you need to see yourself as a "mini enterprise" and
behave accordingly, treat your clients with courtesy and respect, and
stay "on
your toes". Stay on your toes all the time- not just when the idea
runs hot in your mind- success is not built on fleeting attention and
temporary concentration.
The opportunities are out there- maybe not
on the "free
folio" sites
of the muddy waters of the internet, shooting with clueless photographers...
but if you know where to look, the good jobs can be found!
More upside to all this though- you get to work with
a diverse range of people. You have opportunities to travel, to get magazine
and web exposure, and more often than not, get paid on the same day you
sign off on the job, usually on the day of the shoot. You'll have the
opportunity to make enduring friendships, in an industry where a lot
depends on "who" you
know. Your greatest source of referrals will be other models you have
worked with, make-up artists who have worked with you, and of course,
the photographers and clients themselves. Far more "in favour" of
this system, than "against".
How do I know if I have what it takes to
succeed as a model?
Only you know yourself- the real you!
Success in modelling-
while dependent to a certain extent on your physical attributes- relies
a lot on how you handle yourself as a person- how others perceive you
and how you interact with other people. Countless times we've seen the
person who was "not the ideal choice" scoop the assignment,
through sheer determination, and tenacity. Look at how you live, how
reliably you have kept appointments and commitments, are you are
a breeze to deal with; or a drama queen- the answer will be starting
to reveal itself by now!
Don't give up your day job- nor should you jump into modelling as a way
of making quick money, funding your overnight retirement- or because
your friends on your online chat page say you "should do it".
These are all the wrong reasons!
If you have an eye for design and fashion, look after
yourself well, take direction and responsibility well, and understand
what a professional work environment is, then go for it! So many let
"themselves" down... so if you are persistent, good things will be yours
quickly!
About modelling portfolios, folios, test
shoots and what you really need.....
In an ideal world, you don't need a portfolio- you just
need someone to walk up to you with the contract and cheque!
However- in the real world, this seldom happens- so you need your tools
of trade! Ideally these should be:
composite cards which have pix on them that show you
in a variety of looks, styles and poses and have your contact information
on them;
a folio (called a "book") in the trade,
showing quality pictures, which you should carry with you always; a
website- not a "yourspace" online- but
something with your own domain name, with images you can update frequently,
that is a "next step" stopping point for those interested
in booking you- a place to look for more pix and information, to help
tip the scales in your favour, and stamp out your competition!
If you're after a portfolio, if you really think you
need one- and remember some of the world's best models started without
one- they were exposed to the right opportunity to begin with-
these pointers may help you.
For no more than $200 you
should get the following:
Three outfit changes, shot in studio or on location,
and a selection of images for you to keep- in either hi resolution on
disk, or in print form. Images on disk should be edited ready for print
output.
Two hours of the photographer's time shooting, and editing
your images. This is more than enough to produce what you need for a
folio, if the photographer is good, knows their work, and is using fast,
up to date equipment. Image correction, repair and editing should be
at a minimum- good photographers capture pefect -or near-perfect files,
and don't spend ages at the computer, fixing mistakes! Real photographers
trained on the discipline of film- without the bandaid repairs of digital.
Images should match the level of expertise you see throughout
this site- not be snaps in a home studio, backyard, park or similar.
The photographer should be able to demonstrate to you that she/he has
vision and artistic flair- look beyond their personality and ask yourself
whether or not the work you are looking at would be worth paying thousands
for, if it were commissioned commercial work. Unfortunately most clients
have no idea when it comes to grading a photographer- and end up learning
an expensive and heartbreaking lesson in the process.
A backyard hack working
off a website with no street address, or a student or "passionate" hobbyist
shouldn't be trusted or relied upon to create images for you that will
ultimately represent who you are in the eyes of your potential employers.
Some of the abysmal examples of pictures we see, make us wonder whether
candid camera is waiting to capture our looks of disbelief!
Never make the mistake of tfp (time for prints)- if you
pay peanuts then you get monkeys- and if you pay nothing, it's even worse.
Be paid for your time, for every shoot you do, and pay your photographer(s)
for theirs, if the shots are for you.
People will never give you their best for nothing. The time and energy
you could spend believing the opposite to be true- will yield much better
results invested in your own productivity. Outstanding folio photography
isn't expensive- fees are low to help models get started with images.
Get the best start in modelling you can- start with professional images.
I'm ready to take the next step- no obligation, no commitment
from either side, just get some feedback on my chances.
Ok- so you want to give it a go- see what you think,
what we think, and possibly what the audience thinks?
See that you don't make any mistakes in completing the
form, or in attaching images.
Please read the instructuctions below, and follow them to
the letter.
These tips will get you in with the best chance.
Please read them- it is amazing how many people continue to make the mistakes
we draw attention to here:
treat it seriously- not as something to do because
you are bored;
answer the questions truthfully, include your name-
first name and last name- as it appears on your photographic
ID which you will need to bring to an interview if there is one.
Be
realistic- especially about your expectations and aspirations,
your abilities and availabilities;
Have 2 photos with a file size less
than 1 meg each, in your computer to attach to the form- a full length
shot, and a face shot- be sure they are recent and ensure they are
in jpg format- no word doc files, no psd, no tiff, and no zip! Must
be jpg extension only- and make sure- absolutely sure that you have
a full length photo and a face shot;
DO NOT send photos which have more than one person
in them i.e. "Saturday night party" shots.
DO NOT wear sunglasses or hats or
beanies in shots you submit- these won't get you in with a chance at
all.
The "full length photo" must have you standing up-
not lying down or sitting or kneeling.
Submit one- only one form- if you get an
error message, or if something appears to be malfunctioning, it means
your photos are too large. Resize them to around 600x800 pixels each.
The system will automatically reject applications over 1 meg in size.
Multiple forms ("sent
again in case it didn't go through") will also be rejected, before
we even get to see them, and your origin email will be auto blacklisted
by the system.
If you think you made a mistake, email us,
and attach your photos to the email. This is not the
preferred option- as your pix don't go straight to our online model
database, as they would if you used the form correctly.
If you write an application and email to us, it is
important that you address all the criteria outlined on the form which
you can reach via a link at the bottom of this page.
be contactable- by phone.
Know when you are available for interview.
Promptly acknowledge any communication you receive
from us.
Please read, and read again, the next line: Be certain you have completed the form "fully" and
"correctly"- and that you have attached TWO
pix- not one- and that
one is a face shot and one is a full length shot, and that both
are representative of your CURRENT look. We've had some great people
apply- but with only one photo- and some with incomplete information
on forms.
Important: All applicants please read:
The most common errors on forms are, in order:
1: no surname;
2: only one photo
attached instead of two photos;
3: full length photo is either "not" full length, or has been taken
sitting or lying down;
4: more than one person in the photo;
5: the applicant is unrecognizeable in the photo (blurry, poor lighting,
head half chopped off)
6: wearing black in the shots - a big "no";
7: no "suburb" specified in the "suburb" field;
8: you are not on the current version of this page- check the date beneath
the banner at the top- the update should be within 4 days. If not, then you're
on an old page which will NOT process your application.
And while we've got your
attention...
Do NOT send text messages
- not for ANY reason. You are assuming it has been read and received, and that
the receiver has the time to type back to you. We do not do business by SMS,
and we will not take you seriously, no matter what.
Do NOT ring our mobile number
under ANY circumstances to talk about modelling, or the pix you have emailed
in. We need to be in front of a computer- and if we're out of the studio, then
we're NOT in front of a computer. Most days, most of the time during business
hours, we are at the studio, ring us ONLY on that number.
Remember- you're applying for this for yourself, so
give yourself the best chance.
Submissions must match criteria, in order to be considered.
Take it seriously,
and we'll take you seriously.
No exceptions.
Never worry about whether or not you are good enough,
or stress about a couple of extra kilos you think shouldn't be there!
A good photographer will know instantly how to bring the best out of
you, and our lenses take between a size, and a size and a half OFF, so
it's a lot easier for us to work with someone who is a few kilos over
the weight they would like to be- and that's not a joke!
And one last thing. When you have submitted your form, call
our studio two business days later, not the same day or morning
after you send your pix in - and ensure you can come in for an interview within
24 hours after you call ( only if you are required to do so). If we consider you suitable, we will set up an interview
time with you during the phone call.
Do not sms, do not call our mobile number Do not email us asking if there is any modeling work going.. when you are reading the page which has the answer to all of your questions right here...
Call our studio on 03 9554 3279 between two and four business days after sending in your pix. If we do not hear from you between 48 and
96 hours after receiving your form, we will delete your details and pictures
from our system. If you are emailing from interstate, consider how you plan
to be in Melbourne for an interview and work... BEFORE you go to the effort
of sending in your details and pix.
