Terry Soe Lundholm Review of Colours Agency
Absolutely do not be fooled by the 'swish' website...
Absolutely do not be fooled by the 'swish' website, there's no substance here, certainly no class. Treat people the way you wish to be treated, a motto that clearly this little agency does not abide with. My daughter came all the way from Edinburgh to their open casting, she came upon a locked door, they buzzed her in, then someone approached her and without even introducing himself or asking her name (I mean simple common courtesy), or even asking her to take her coat off, proceeded to ask her age and whether her trainers had a hidden heel, (you're right she's not 6ft tall, but she's not looking to be a catwalk model, you don't need to be super tall to be a photographic model!). Then he proceeded to guess her height and then had her stand in the middle of the office and took a head shot with his iphone 4 (still with her coat on, so no idea of her silhouette or anything), he then disappeared into an office (clearly to whoever holds the power), returned and told her "you've got a nice look, but it's not for us," and then proceeded to usher her out the door. Time in office, max three minutes, and absolutely nothing like the procedure they outline on their website.
Bear in mind, there was nobody else waiting to be seen, they weren't busy, so utterly no excuse, just rude and arrogant people making themselves feel big by humiliating young adults. Shame on you.
