Any information or experiences good/ bad really appreciated.

I think they just build the portfolios, not get actual work. But maybe wrong. Have looked at TrustPilot and reviews are mixed.

TIA!

Iโ€™ve never heard anyone get anything other than expensive, (hard sell), photographs from them. Is it for adult or child?

To add, my experience was that the reputable agencies never wanted a portfolio. My 7 year old was signed up to a great agency with just a few snaps taken at home. Also to add, yes, I think the โ€˜agencyโ€™ you mentioned is a scam. Always look to see who their clients are.

dd was with Bruce and Brown. Kids London were also great, if you were looking for childrenโ€™s agencies that is

Thanks @selfishjeanss , that is really helpful.

It is for DS who is 18.

Did you just send photos to Bruce and Brown directly?

Hi yes, I just emailed the photos to them via their website. I think your DS will be better going to an adult agency, unless he looks very young for his age?

im not familiar with adult agencies, but had a quick google and found this to start https://www.starnow.com/uk/magazine/article/top-modelling-agencies-in-the-uk-76414/

hope that helps and good luck to your DS
