One star is generous!

One star is generous! In January 2023 I went into the studio for a photoshoot and paid over a grand for a package deal and was hoping for work. I understand work isn’t always guaranteed but I have heard nothing.
I called back after 3 years asking for a refund giving the prosess time, the manager was very rude and kept interrupting me wouldn’t recommend at all stay away

Hi Abigail.

We cannot seem to find you as a genuine customer on the system and we find it very strange that you are leaving a review three years later. We’re genuinely sorry to read that you feel disappointed with your experience.

To clarify, New Idol Models does not guarantee modelling work, and this is clearly explained both verbally and within our terms and conditions before any client proceeds. Our services provide professional portfolio development, guidance and agency introductions where suitable — but work opportunities are ultimately dependent on market demand, agencies and individual suitability.

We also want to address the timeline mentioned. Requesting a refund three years after a completed service falls outside of our refund policy, as the photoshoot and portfolio package were fully delivered at the time.

That said, we never intend for any client to feel unheard. If you would like to email our head office directly with your full details, we’re more than happy to review your file and ensure everything was handled correctly.

We wish you the very best moving forward.

Best Wishes,
New Idol Model

Yep… it’s a SCAM…

So after a pressured call I stupidly paid my £50…. Less than an hour later I cancelled everything…. Had a reply to my text (& I’ve followed up with 3 emails!!) to say all will be refunded … yet surprise surprise… NOTHING & NO reply to my emails …
After reading all the reviews I see this as a scam you are flattered into being ‘fast tracked’ due to your looks…& then as I had no portfolio (-well at 60 why would I?!!!) they want £500 upwards for one that is taken on that day…. Luckily I came to my senses before I attended…. I will pursue my £50 through legal channels if necessary…. I’m not that much of a fool….
So if there is anyone from the company reading this…. Please refund my money ASAP!!
Funny how after I posted this … i was notified of my refund… but as i say… i wish I’d not been flattered by them … my ego won… it won’t again!!
Update … today I’ve received a call from ‘Sarah’ trying to get me ti change my mind. I told her I did nit want to continue the conversation as my mind was made up & I ended the call. She then rang back 4 times- I declined each call & then 4 hrs later she had tried again. ThisI now consider harassment… so please be warned!!

Hi Ms Walker,

We’re sorry to hear that you’re feeling concerned about your refund.

Please be aware that booking deposit refunds are not instant and typically take 5–7 working banking days to appear back in your account, depending on your bank’s processing times.

We would never avoid refunding a fully refundable £50 booking deposit. With over 12 years of industry experience and having worked with thousands of new face models, transparency and professionalism are extremely important to us.

We would be more than happy to assist you directly. Please contact Sarah in our Aftercare Team on 020 7390 0451 or email Aftercare@newidolmodel.co.uk
with your full name and booking details so we can check this for you immediately - We have tried to contact you a number of times but unfortunately you have been extremely rude and hanging up on the members of staff they just wanted to speak to you to try to get a real understanding of your very much fabricated review. We've also had feedback that you extremely rude to members of staff on the day. I would love to chat to you.

We’re here to help and resolve this as quickly as possible.

Kind regards,
New Idol Models

I had an incredible experience at New Idol Manchester. The studio is very well equipped and perfectly located in the heart of the city. The whole team were professional, welcoming and made me feel completely at ease.

A big thank you to Mario, the photographer, who was fantastic on the day, and to Rebecca who helped guide me through my decisions. The aftercare team have been amazing supporting me every step of the way and really helping to ease my nerves.

Since working with New Idol Models, I’ve been signed to two lead agencies and have already had two castings, which is incredibly exciting. None of this would have happened without the hard work and dedication of the talented team.

As a mature model, I’ve felt supported and encouraged throughout the whole journey. This experience has given me real confidence.

Just remember — it’s never too late.

New idol is a scam

New idol is a scam. The photo shoot was rushed and then you're taken into an office and peer pressured to spend from £500 to £4000 for a portfolio, then if you don’t sign up there and then your photos are deleted. You are also told there is a refundable £50 deposit which you don’t get back.

Hi Bainbridge,

We take allegations like this very seriously, and we strongly refute the claims made in this review.

New Idol Models and Impact Digital Photography have been operating for over 12 years, providing professional portfolio services to aspiring models and individuals looking to build confidence and experience in front of the camera.

To clarify:

• Our photoshoots are conducted professionally and clients are given time with our photographers and team.
• There is absolutely no obligation to purchase any portfolio package. Clients are shown their images and given full pricing transparency before making any decision.
• We do not “delete photos” as a pressure tactic. Images remain our intellectual property unless a package is purchased, which is standard practice across the photography industry.
• The £50 booking deposit is refundable in accordance with the agreed terms. Where a refund is due, it is processed accordingly.

We do not guarantee modelling work, and we are clear that we are a portfolio development service — not a modelling agency. This is explained during the booking process and again at the studio.

We are always open to resolving concerns directly and professionally. If you would like to discuss your experience further, please contact our head office.

Please check out the Instagram page for our latest posts updates on the industy and all the success stories we have a 12 years of industry experience. Please let us know if there's anything we can help in advice on. This review is completely untrue and very much fabricated. We make sure that when everyone leaves they are 100% happy with the experience and the product. There's a reason why we have repeat business year on year!

Shameful scam

This is purely a selling ploy. I asked about hidden costs and was told only the £50 refundable booking fee and would be referred to agencies but after waiting 2hrs after the shoot to see my photos I was told they would only refer if I paid for a £500-£2500 package. I chose 3 photos instead of my refund as I will use them to send to reputable agents. Not at all professional and just basic hair and makeup…don’t waste your time or money.
Answer to response …
I would like to know why I was lied to when I asked about hidden costs at the time of booking? I also found your staff extremely rude. Your so called beautician and hairdresser.
had no idea about colours and used dirty makeup brushes on me. I had to finish my hair myself

Hi Joanne,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re genuinely sorry to hear that you felt disappointed with your experience. Transparency is extremely important to us, and we’re sorry if anything was unclear on the day. We have over 12 years of industry studio experience using the highest standard makeup artists and the professional photographers who have worked on leading fashion shows and publications.

To clarify, the £50 booking fee secures the studio time, professional photography session and consultation, and is fully refundable if clients decide not to proceed. There is absolutely no obligation to purchase any package.

Our portfolio packages are optional and are explained during the viewing appointment, as agencies require professional images before considering representation. Referrals are based on suitability and presentation standards, which is why professional portfolio options are discussed.

We’re pleased that you chose to keep three images and we genuinely wish you the very best when submitting to agencies independently.

We appreciate all feedback as it helps us continue improving our communication and client experience.

Memorable Photoshoot with a Few Important Things to Know

I recently shot with New Idol Model after coming across their requirement for older-age models through a social media promotion, and decided to give it a try.

To begin with, the team was very prompt in responding and confirming the appointment. However, on the first scheduled day, when I reached the studio, I realised they had forgotten to book me in. Unfortunately, this resulted in a wasted trip. My advice to anyone booking a shoot is to call the day before your appointment to reconfirm. You should ideally receive a confirmation call from their team if you don’t, consider that a red flag and follow up proactively.

I was rebooked for a few days later, and from then on, the process was seamless. The welcome at the studio wasn’t particularly warm at first, but it did improve. The makeup artist and photographer were both excellent. Since this was my first time posing for a portfolio, I was understandably nervous, but the photographer made the entire experience very comfortable and enjoyable.

The shoot itself went really well. Do note that you are required to bring your own clothes (they share details for five looks in advance). I would strongly recommend bringing a few extra options, as the photographer helps shortlist what works best on camera.

Overall, the shoot was a memorable and fun experience, and the pictures turned out fabulous.

That said, one important thing to be prepared for is the decision-making process immediately after the shoot. You are shown your portfolio right away and given package options with different price points. You are expected to decide on the spot whether you want to sign with them. If you choose not to, the images are deleted, and there’s no option to think it over and come back later.

Did I feel pressured into signing? Personally, no. The experience was enjoyable, the images looked great, and I felt comfortable going ahead. However, it’s important to walk in fully aware of this policy so you can make a clear-headed decision. It is quite an investment.

Things to keep in mind before your shoot:

Always reconfirm your appointment a day in advance

If you don’t receive a confirmation call, follow up

Bring your own clothes and pack extra options

Be prepared to make a decision about signing up immediately after viewing your photos

Go in informed and confident, so you enjoy the experience without surprises

If you’re well-prepared and know what to expect, it can be a really positive and confidence-boosting experience.

Hi Neha,

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and balanced review. We genuinely appreciate your honesty and the opportunity to reflect on your experience.

We’re very sorry for the initial booking error and the inconvenience caused by your first visit. This is not the standard we aim for, and your feedback helps us tighten our internal checks to ensure appointments are always confirmed clearly in advance.

We’re pleased to hear that once rebooked, the experience improved and that you felt comfortable and supported by our makeup artist and photographer—especially as this was your first portfolio shoot. Helping clients feel confident and at ease is incredibly important to us.

You’re absolutely right to highlight the importance of being informed before attending. Transparency is key, and we always aim to clearly explain our process, including styling requirements and the same-day portfolio review and package options, so clients can make a decision that feels right for them.

Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback and recommendations. We’re glad to hear you enjoyed the shoot and loved the final images, and we wish you every success moving forward.

I visited the Manchester studio feeling extremely nervous, as this was completely new to me. From the moment I arrived, I was made to feel welcome and at ease.

The photographer, Raf, was a true professional — very friendly, funny, and easy to talk to, which really helped me relax. We chatted throughout the shoot and he gave clear guidance without any pressure. The outdoor photos in particular turned out far better than I expected.

Kim took the time to go through the images with me properly and helped me choose a package that suited what I was looking for, rather than pushing anything unnecessary. I appreciated the honest approach.

I’d also like to thank Sarah Walker for her aftercare and support. She was incredibly patient and reassuring, especially after I shared some concerns I had from researching the industry. She helped me understand the process clearly and gave me confidence about moving forward.

To be honest

To be honest — I didn’t really know what to expect before going to New Idol Model. But from the moment I arrived, I felt at ease. The team were relaxed, friendly, and very professional, which made a big difference.

The shoot itself was actually enjoyable, and the photographers knew exactly how to bring the best out of you without making it feel awkward. The quality of the photos speaks for itself — they’re far better than I imagined.

What stood out most was how open and straightforward everything felt. There was no pressure, just clear guidance and honest advice about what was right for me and what the next steps could be.

I left feeling confident, positive, and genuinely glad I went. If you’re on the fence, I’d say it’s worth experiencing for yourself. Big thank you to Marta, Magda and the wonderful becka.

Best experience possible

I honestly cannot thank the team at New Idol Models enough for the experience they gave me. As a mature model, travelling down from Bournemouth on my own was incredibly nerve-wracking, and I arrived feeling unsure, anxious, and very much out of my comfort zone.

From the moment I walked through the door, every single member of the team made me feel completely at ease. They were so accommodating, kind, and genuinely professional, taking the time to explain everything clearly and never once making me feel rushed or pressured. The atmosphere was calm, supportive, and uplifting — exactly what I needed.

It’s been a very long time since I’ve felt confident in front of a camera, but the guidance, encouragement, and reassurance I received throughout the shoot was truly amazing. I decided to go ahead and purchase some images, and when I saw the final results, I was completely overwhelmed with emotion. I was brought to tears — in the best possible way. I finally saw myself again.

Thanks to the incredible support and expertise of the New Idol team, I’ve now been signed to a leading mature agency, something I never thought would happen at this stage in my life. They didn’t just take photos — they helped guide me back onto a path I thought I had lost forever.
