Welcome to our Model Tutorials in the Sun, the Academy holds several trips abroad throughout the year to exotic locations around the world to shoot portfolios for new and existing models. We have been running the trips abroad for two years now shooting in glamourous locations such as the Red Sea Riviera in Egypt, and trips to Majorca.

In fact over 50 new and existing models, and even well known Page 3 girls have joined us to shoot their calendars and portfolio with us abroad! 2012 has already seen a sell out trip to Egypt in January where 15 models joined us for a week in the sun, and shoots on the Red Sea.

The girls on the Egypt trip spent the week taking part in photoshoots around the resort, and on the private beaches at sunrise and sunset, and had a great time partying as well. Between shoots the girls had massages and used the spa, sunbathed in the 28 degree sunshine by the pool, and enjoyed plenty of shopping! Some even took part in camel rides through the desert at sunset, enjoyed quad biking trips, and had bbq's under the stars in the desert in Egyptian Bedouin tents!

Everyone had an amazing time in Egypt, and the team were very sad to be leaving! However we are very excited about announcing our next trip - Ibiza June 2012! Many of the girls from Egypt trip will be returning to shoot and party with us in Ibiza, and if you want to join us make sure you also see the details below!

We will likely be returning to Egypt again this November, or February 2013 depending on Kerri's availability. Full details of this trip will become available in the summer, after we return from the Ibiza trip. So stay tuned for more info coming soon!
         

Ibiza - 15th - 22nd June 2012 ONLY £300 plus flights!

Welcome to our June Academy trip - where we will be heading off to San Antonio Bay in Ibiza for a fantastic week of photoshoots and parties! This is our budget trip, compared to the prices of shooting with us in Egypt, which are already low at just £699, this trip is brought to you at even more great value - but without compromising on quality!

This trip costs just £300 plus the cost of flights, which we will either book for the girls or they are welcome to book themselves. Flights cost around £100 plus baggage from Gatwick, but by doing flights seperately girls can fly from wherever they want in the UK and save on travelling costs!

The £300 cost is broken down into £100 for your accommodation for the week, sharing a twin room with another girl, on a self catering basis, and £200 for your photoshoots. This fantastic price even including flights is still approximately £400 which is less than what you would pay in the UK for a full day in most photographic studios!

We have done this trip on a self catering basis, as on our last all inclusive trip to Egypt, many girls slept through breakfast after partying the night before, and many also wanted to eat out at different bars and restaurants each night. So this trip is brought to you much cheaper as a result, and girls can chose where they wish to eat and when. With plenty of supermarkets, cafes, restaurants and bars right next to the hotel they will be spoiled for choice on where to eat!

Girls will take part in a variety of shoots during their trip, with days off to relax and sunbath as they wish, and plenty of time for nights out and partying as well! Our Academy promoters will be contacting the best clubs in the area before the trip to ensure the girls get star treatment once they arrive and are on all of the best guest lists!

Alternate dates: Due to a high volume of interest and confirmed bookings before this trip was even advertised, the Academy team will be in Ibiza for another week on the 22nd June. If this week would be more suited to you then you can book for this week instead at the same above rates. For those wishing to stay for two weeks simply add £100 to the cost of the trip to cover the cost of the hotel. Shoots will be on set days so you can split your four days shooting over the two weeks if you wish.

   
       
       
   

The £300 price includes

  • Accomodation - Sharing a twin room at the hotel, situated right on the beach with private pool.
  • Shoots - Your trip includes 4 days of shoots with the Academy photographer Mike Parsons, shoots will be done by the pool and on the beach, and also include sunset shots.
  • All images on DVD - You will keep every image from the trip on DVD to take away in high resolution and logo free to use as you wish. You can use the images for your portfolio or send them to agencies and magazines, many girls from our trips have had their images printed in Nuts, Zoo, FHM and many other men's magazines.
  • Image retouching - Your favourite five images from the trip will also be professionally retouched by the Academy photographer Mike Parsons.
  • 2013 Calendar - You will have your favourite images made into your very own 2012 official A3 calendar designed, printed and produced by our partners and placed on our online store! You will have the option of earning money from each calendar sold, so make sure you bring 12 different bikini's with you - one for each month!

Whats not included in the price:

Flights are not included, as detailed above, to allow girls to sort their own flights from wherever they wish to fly from in the UK. As an example flights from Gatwick are around £100 plus baggage. If girls wish for us to book their flights for them we can, or they are welcome to arrange them themselves.

Transfers are not included in the price however by booking as a group these are very cheap, you will be advised of transfer costs when you book or if several of you are flying from the same place you are welcome to book a taxi to the resort.

Food and drink is not included in the price, there are plenty of cafes, supermarkets and bars and restaurants nearby for you to eat at.

Hair and make up is not included on the trip, as we find most girls prefer to do their own or help each other than pay extra for make up.

You will receive a Model Handbook written by Kerri with examples of poses to try on the beach, as well as training and advice from her throughout the week on the trip. So if you have no idea how to pose do not worry as Kerri and her team will help you every step of the way. Learn all about the model industry whilst sunbathing by the pool, or sipping cocktails in the evening!

Teens are welcome on the trip to shoot portfolios if accompanied by a parent or guardian, who will pay for their hotel and flights accordingly.
