Child Modelling AUGUST 2006

Hello...

hi everyone

Congrats lanismum hope you get through the early sickness stages soon!

Princessmel - my friend with bg has a baby (about 8months) a three year old and a fiv year old. Her baby did next job a few weeks back , she had a couple of other castings over the last couple of weeks which she didn't get. Yet the agency keep in contact asking about devleopments such as sitting up crawling etc. They are quite up to date

Last time i went to drs for letter i booked an appointment for something else for my kids and then got the drs note out and said can you sign that, they did at no charge! so there sort of is a way round it if you need an appointment for something else!

b and b will not do photographic only , with commericals too

I was a bit suprised on the local area of their offices for such a highly rated agency, yet as long as they do good jobs thats all that counts, saying that I work from home!

my ds liked the spiderman on the wall downstairs at camelot studios so i had to take a picture of him with it before we left!

kimjl- welcome to the thread, dont rush in with any agent , spend your time choosing the right one for u! I certainly have this year its took me months

forgot to say Ayeshia called when i was in b and b and they were saying she had a girl. there is i believe three of them whilst she is off. they seemed really nice, I got this gut instint when i was in their so i hope they accept him!

Hi all, just managed to grab a couple of seconds to myself to catch up well done to everyone with jobs/castings. DS has been really quiet but DD has now joined KL!!!!
LANIS - CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Really pleased for you as I know you said you were broody!!!!
YUMMY - have you heard any more about c&g????.... will keep fingers crossed for you!!!
PRINCESSMEL - our gp charges £20 for his letter but I managed to get him to leave it undated last time so its lasted a bit longer!!!
CYAN/LANIS - hope you had a good one sunday!! Do you still fancy doing the softplay sometime soon???? Lanis you can get some practise with my little one!!!
Hope everyone is ok and carries on being busy!!

hi all.anyone doing the bhs halloween shoot tomorrow?

Yackerty,lovely to hear from you! Great to hear you are all well and fab news re dd and KL!
Tiger,hehe ,definitely thought I had a DD ,last time I looked too! DD has been lucky re this spate of jobs,but they are like buses with us,a few in a short peiod then nothing for ages! Going to bed now,had a very busy day been up since 0345 for what turned out to be a manic shift at Heathrow ,then straight into town for casting. I am a double shift tmrw so need to get some shut eye.Speak soonxx

mrratty- it was only a small office really at b and b kipsey and another girl were in there. we arrived early so they kindly saw us first. kipsey took my ds off for photos whilst I filled in the forms and looked in their model book etc. Some of the kids are gorgeous in the book! there was loads of magazines on the table with their jobs in them although I didn't look through them and snap shots on the back wall of their kids etc (which i was sitting in front of) it was really easy to find their offices and there was me worrying!

Marymay,Good Luck for shoot tmrw!!

thorntons do you work for an airline then? was it mad their today? i have been getting calls on my mobile etc about people asking about their flights over the next few days etc

lanismum........BIG CONGRATS!!!!! You must be so excited!

thorntons....well done on The White Company job. The pics in their catalogues are always so lovely.

Julie,yep work for supposedly "the world`s favourite airline" Been manic today,most of our short haul flights were cancelled. generally,passengers been really understanding in light of the current threat.

thorntons ..sorry forgot to say well done on dd job

marymay.....Well Done on the BHS Halloween job! It's so weird to be shooting Halloween in summer. We did Christmas today with Christmas tree, pressies, crackers and silly santa hats!! Cool that DS got his first job without a casting.

hi ragamuffin it is weird.ds is very excited he is still awake!hope he has face paint on tomorrow so they wont see his bags.well done on your dd job today.has see been modelling for a long while ?i think she is the same age as my dd(10).

Julie, we were already there for an appointment for something else!. He took the form and said to come back for it today.
Yackerty, I haven't collected it yet so I don't know if he dated it or not but I think there was a space on the form for a date so probably.
Lanis, Congratulations! What will the age gap be between them?
Thorntons, Lucky you for White Company job. Theres one here in St Albans and the stuff is so nice.
Where do you all go for soft play? I bet its nowhere near me? I feel left out! No jobs, castings!

marymay....... My DD just turned 9 and has been modelling etc for 3yrs. She is small for her age too though and wears 7-8yrs clothing. Know what you mean with the excitement. We had that on Monday night before the Girl Talk shoot. She was just so excited cos that is one she has ALWAYS wanted to do!! Hope it goes well tomorrow.

ragamuffin..my dd would part with a limb for girl talk .her favourite mag

Hey yackerty> good to hear from you glad everything is ok! well done on dd getting into KL!!!

mrratty> just wanted to say I was on Oxford St earlier and went into the Mothercare and your dd's pic is emblazoned across the left window! It's huge!!!!!!!!!

thorntons> sorry i never text back the other day was a wee bit busy but hope you are feeling better now and can make it the next time! well done on dd's job/casting
