Welcome to the Academy’s portfolio shoots for new and existing models. The Academy uses a top photographic studio in Norfolk for all of our private portfolio packages, featuring over 1000sq ft of space, and a well equipped studio and make up room with MAC trained make up artists. Located in Norwich, we have negotiated a special rate at the studio for our models, shooting with Nic our in house photographer who has had his images featured on countless fashion and teen beauty magazines, and has even shot images for Miss World! Nic is primarily a top fashion photographer however girls can shoot a variety of looks with us, from fashion and commercial, to glamour. Kerri is on hand at every shoot to help the girls pose, and offer advice on how to become a model, making the whole portfolio experience more than just your usual photo shoot! Our private portfolio packages offer the best deals around, in a market which preys on ripping off new models and charging hundreds or even thousands for just a few images! These great packages and fantastic portfolio images you will receive, teamed with the invaluable advice you will receive from Kerri, makes this the ultimate photoshoot experience for any new or existing model. It does not matter if you have never done a photoshoot before, or if you are already an experienced model, as each photoshoot is personally catered to you and what your portfolio needs. |

| We have three different model portfolio packages available to suit all budgets and requirements - you can enjoy an hour's photoshoot, a half day, or spend the whole day with us at the studio, which even includes your own stylist and designer clothes! The studio is in the centre of Norwich and features a vast amount of different coloured backgrounds and set ups. In the summer months you also have the option of shooting out on location as well. On booking a shoot with us you will receive a preparation guide to help you, written by Kerri it covers everything from what outfits to bring, to fitness and diet and how to look your best on the big day! On arrival at your photoshoot Kerri, Nic, and Melissa (MAC trained make up artist) will discuss your requirements, and what you hope to achieve from the day, so please bring along any printouts of images you want to recreate if you wish to do so. The Platinum package includes a meeting before the big day to discuss your requirements and see what outfits and looks will suit you. On the day Kerri will personally style each shot for you showing you how to pose and answering any questions you have about the industry. Our Platinum package includes your own stylist if you really want to feel like a celeb model for the day! |

| You will be able to view images as you go on the large studio MAC screens, every shot we take is also transferred to a large LCD TV on the wall behind you so we can view each image and correct the poses as necessary. Every image from the shoot is checked and edited using the latest Photoshop software before being sent out on DVD, to ensure each one is of the highest quality. Each different package includes airbrushed images or prints, with the option to purchase more if required. Each of the three packages includes hair and make up by Melissa, our MAC trained make up artist and hair stylist. Melissa will ensure you look like a celeb model in your photoshoots, and will touch up make up as necessary throughout the shoot. At each shoot you will be able to talk to Kerri about which agencies you are most suited for to apply to, and how the Academy can help you find work. If you wish to become a fashion and commercial model (teens also accepted) and are over 5 foot 7 you may be eligible for free representation by a top fashion agency we work alongside. |
