Take a look behind the scenes of IMM's most recent
✨ MODEL WORKSHOP DAY ✨
We hosted 12 of our gorgeous new faces at the incredible Mello Studios in Hackney, London, for an unforgettable day filled with Posing, Pics & Prosecco - what more could you ask for from a sunny Friday in November?
We brought in one of our most seasoned models - TIA - to coach the girls in the art of eCommerce posing (seriously, she's a force to be reckoned with), alongside the fantastic REMI, an in-house photographer at eCom giant, ASOS. Their combined experience and invaluable advice made for an unforgettable day packed to the brim with tips & tricks.
Not only did the models get a chance to put these tips to the test and strut their stuff in front of each other, but they also squeezed in a little portfolio update upstairs with talented photographer Alysha and New Faces Booker Sarah.
The skills the models gained from the day far exceeded expectations, they walked away with a noticeable boost in confidence (both on and off camera), key industry advice, answers to all their burning questions, friends for life, (and perhaps a little buzz..).
♥︎ An overall success ♥︎

For one, I found the e-commerce workshop really useful learning about posing and confidence, as well as being able to talk to other models in similar situations and talking about the mental health side of things. I think I also found it really useful talking about tips and tricks in the industry and reinforcing that you should always stay true to yourself."
