SCAM! AVOID! SOHO MODELLING PORTFOLIO
and ONLINE MODELS.
This is my honest feed back for soho fashion studio and online models.
Chico one of the first person, who contact.
I completely agree with a written feedback of some members about this Scammers companies - soho studio and online models.
They are using trustful public, particular ladies in their 50s and 60s.
I had experience in September 2023, but contract started in January 2024.
I’ve gave to myself some time to write this review .
In January 2025 - one year since I became “model”.
First Stage: I came to soho fashion studio with a suitcase full of different clothes.
Yes, it is attractive for person, who never had any interaction with fashion business before.
Loud music, photographer, make up person, dresser… Of course its tempting…
All people, who gave them 5star they were amuse by all this circus, like me. Do any of them have a job?
There wasn’t any direction from photographer for poses, most of my poses I created myself. For money
I paid, should be really professional photographer!?
Second Stage: Came back to studio from photoshoot.
So, same trick: small room, great music and on the screen of the computer my photoshoot’s edited photographs.
Of course, you are already imaging yourself a model or actress…
Kane, who interviewed me, insist me to get the modelling package with highest price and gave me lots of promises.
He said, I would return the money in a year on account of I have very good potential etc… and I did spend a substantial amount of money.
In that moment, I trusted him.
- I signed for: High Street Fashion, Commercial Modelling
- TV& Film Extra, Catalogue Modelling.
Third Stage: He directed me to online models.
Fourth Stage: Managers from online models, who were supposed to help me; I had three of them: Gayle, Oliver, Amy.
In the beginning, I spoke a few times with, Oliver, who helped me to write introduction and gave me list of agencies, who work with mature models.
He wasn’t sure which one suited my age better.
I selected 4 agencies myself and I paid money again.
That was a surprise because it wasn’t mentioned on the phone or interview.
Amy, who I spoke with only once, promised to call me back many times, but never called, stopped answering my emails. Looks like they blocked my email.
No respect for Clients. After 6 month I went back to soho studio and ask them a question: Why did I pay such a high price? Of course there wasn’t a clear answer.
They said I needed to contact with online models, they are responsible for my modelling career. As usual communication issue…
In almost 7 month I had one job with skin company, unfortunately I spend more on travelling.
Over 6 month no response from online models.. They lost interest long time ago. Looking for others…
January 2025 end of my contract. WHAT NEXT, FOR WHAT I PAID, I would like to ask Kane and company of liars…
Of course I am very disappointed, distressed and hurt. “Models” like me, mostly women, paying salary to this kind of scammers…
I lost my time and my money…
Reader will say: You sign contract.! Yes, I did! But what about humanity, honesty and trust???
They should have compensation or other alternatives for people like me, if they taking money for nothing.
I’ll tell you, there are many people in the same situation.
I am thinking of taking a legal advice about it…
