New Kube Studio Testimonial from Model Nikki

Kube Studio testimonial from model Nikki.





Here a beautiful testimonial from one of our model's about how working with Kube Studios helped her to regain her confidence.   

"I want to thank everyone at Kube studios, unlike most people, when I first replied to an email and sent off a photo of myself, (with my horse, of course), It was because I was feeling so bad about myself! I thought if I just got a reply, it would make my day, and go a long way to help building some confidence with in me and help me feel a bit better about myself. Well, what happened next was beyond anything and I’m still trying to get my head around it! Zish contacted me and after a lot of persuading, he convinced me to do a photo shoot at Kube studios London.

The shoot was booked for April 1st, which I thought the perfect date, me, in front of a camera, it had to be April Fools. After all, I’m a simple country girl and one of the lads, more at home in the woods/fields with my horse and dog, under a car/bike or up a tree than in front of a camera. Give me a set of tools or a horse trying to kill me, I can work it out, Point a camera at me and I run a mile! (90% of my photos are my animals) But I went anyway, and mostly for the same reasons I wanted to cancel. Life in general, feeling bad about myself, and especially after ending up with the paramedics at my home the day before, I desperately needed to do something that just wasn't normally me.

I was so scared, but Zish had been so nice to me and had told everyone at Kube Studios how nervous I was and to take care of me. Everyone was nicer to me than I ever could have imagined. I just thought it would be nice to have my hair and make-up done and get a few photos I could look back on in years to come and say ‘That was me’. I was made to feel so comfortable, confident even, and for once, beautiful. I never thought I would enjoy being in front of a camera, but by the end I was loving it!! When I was shown my photos, I didn't recognise myself, the girl in photos looked so beautiful, natural, and happy. How could it be that I was envious of the girl in my own photos?

I left the studio on a high looking forward to receiving photos I could one day show the grand kids and say, ‘see, I was young once ‘I emailed Zish to thank him and everyone involved for a day id never forget. Next thing I know I receive an email from Mike Hannah (the owner of the studio!) Asking if my comments and thanks could be tweeted along with their favourite photos, I couldn’t believe it and said yes without hesitation. Then, not really thinking much more of it, I get another email, James Scott this time,(That made 3 guys from the modelling studio, contact me, liking my photos and being so nice, I truly felt like crying)After a few emails and a long phone call, where James had tried to talk this very much non-tech girl through tweeter and social media presence, here I am.  It’s because of these 3 wonderful guys, and everyone at Kube studios, people that believed in me, that this simple, private, country tomboy is going to have a portfolio, a website and is starting on the path to believing in herself.

I will always keep the emails and everything I received to remember the confidence I found in myself that day and the people who saw something in me that I hope to one day see for myself. I can’t thank you all enough, for once in my like you truly did make me feel like I was beautiful. I want to thank everyone at Kube Studios"

Kube Studios loves to get feedback from our clients about their experience with us.Here a email we got from male model Ryan who came to Kube Studios Birmingham. 



I just wanted to send a quick email to let you know my shoot at Kube Studios in Birmingham went amazingly well yesterday! Everybody I worked with were extremely friendly and helpful from start to finish.The stylists did an amazing job picking out the best outfits for me and my physique. And the photographer made me feel so at ease with his direction and advice during the shoot.I am ecstatic with the final shots and the advice I received on where to go from here was second to none. I couldn't be happier with how the day went.And lastly I'd like to thank you for the opportunity and all of the advice you gave me prior to the shoot, it was invaluable. I couldn't have done it without you! If you ever need any recommendations please do not hesitate to contact me. Id recommend Kube Studios to anybody looking to make a start in modelling. 
Many thanks 
Ryan Lewis.

My Experience With Kube Studios Review

Kube Studios Review

At Kube Studios we love publishing our reviews for the world to see. Here is one testimonial sent to us recently.

It all started, with my googling part-time jobs in Cheshunt, when I came across an advert labelled "you wanna be a model" which I clicked on. I had to fill in some details including my name, phone number and also a picture of myself. I was extremely pessimistic about receiving a reply via phone call or email, as I had doubts on my potential as a model. 

The next day I received a phone call from James, an employee at model guides, who spoke to my mum and told her all about a photoshoot that I would be able attend in the coming week after the call. I then spoke to James myself and he informed me on the four different outfits I would need to bring, what time to be there and the location of the studio, Kube studios which was in Oxford Circus, London. After this call, I was massively pleased that I would be given the chance to have a shoot with professional photographers, make up artists and hair dressers, getting me prepared. 

A week or so later, I was then traveling to Oxford Circus to attend the time frame for the shoot I was given. On arrival I was kindly greeted and given a form to fill out, asking me for my height, waist measurement, eye colour and modeling line I would like to go into. The first step was makeup which was applied by the make up artist, to blend in with my pigmentation and skin complexion. This was a rather quick process, which was followed by a change of hair style. I was then ready to go downstairs to one of many rooms where I met my photographer for the session and chose the four outfits out of a selection of different clothing items. 

With the first outfit, I was rather nervous with what to do, in terms of facial expression, pose and camera presence. The photographer named Tally, started off by helping me with some poses I could carry out, which was an ice breaker. The first shoot was over and I was upstairs again, ready for a change of hair style. The second outfit choice was one that would be taken outside, to see how I would get on with the urban environment, natural lighting and members of the public passing by. After this shoot I was back to the hair stylist, ready for the third change of hair and back downstairs for the third outfit. Next, the fourth hair style and outfit was completed and I was finished for the day. 

Another employee of the studio then came out to take us to her office where we reviewed the shots and got to see some that they touched up on photoshop. We then discussed prices for portfolios and discs containing the images. The portfolio was the best option, as it was most beneficial for the future and next step if I were to move forward into the modeling industry. A day or so later, I was back on the phone with James, discussing how the shoot went and the next steps, including waiting for the portfolio to be completed and creating a new email address and Twitter account so James and Kube studios would be able to sell me and help other agencies and companies gain interest into my photos. 

Once the portfolio has been created, I will have a much better chance of finding work, as it will be a one-click direct link to my very own website where companies and recruiters ca
n view my shots and decide on whether to hire me for a casting or not. Kube studio employees and James were extremely helpful throughout the whole process and James is still a great help still, having the pleasure to answer my questions and help with issues and enquiries I may have.

New Review from Kube Studios

New Review

Every month we publish our best reviews, one's that are the most insightful and helpful about what we do to prospective clients. Here is a male model review from Ricardo.



Modelling is very much about who you know, even with the best looks. If you don't have access to quality photographers and camera equipment then you will never bring out your best in photos. Kube Studios are not a modelling agency but have the whole package. Their team of makeup artists, stylists and even lighting engineers were perfect for me. I got the photos I wanted to take to castings and send out. Now I have loads of work, and don't need to rely on an agency or someone to spot me. I can go out there and get the jobs myself! I love Modelling and I love Kube Studios!

Kube Studios Summer Review

Jenna's Kube Studios Review

Welcome back to the Kube Studios Review blog. As you will be aware, every week across our four locations our teams meet dozens of different men, women and children and are constantly being surprised by the level of ambition that's out there regarding modelling and the wide variety of people who want to get involved.

Kube Studios London 
Fashion Photography at Kube Studios

Whether you are interested in becoming famous or simply want to try something new and get a bit of extra work to top up your day job, modelling really has something for everyone. The variety of models we see now in print and video has never been so great. Did you know there is even a modelling agency specialising in 'ugly' people! Alternative brands looking for eye-catching talking points and a slightly off beat image clearly find this prospect attractive.

One young lady who is clearly the opposite of 'ugly' and who visited Kube Studios in August is Jenna. Here's what she wrote to us last week following her day in our London studios.

Hey Mike! I just received the last of the photos I chose and I must say I'm really happy with all of them! It was such an exciting day and I'm really grateful to the guys for making me feel so welcome. I think you might get a call from my friend - her name is Carly E*****s and shes proper jealous of me! If i decide on any other photos I'll let you know but I'm happy with these for the mo :) Jennax

We love hearing back from people are their photoshoots so if you have something to say, we take all feedback on board as part of our efforts to provide a superior photography service. Visit the Kube Studios website and find more reviews on the Kube Studios tumblr!

Kube Studios Reviews

My daughter Rebecca would daily come up to me and say mum look at my hair I wish it was longer or look at my freckles there spreading all over my face but to me she is just perfect so couldn't understand why she didn't see what I see I was filling in a receipt competition and saw models wanted send in a picture so I did without telling her!! Next day I got an e mail from James Scott saying she had been shortlisted and to get in touch oh no I thought what have I done Beccy is going to kill me for putting her in the spotlight!! I told her what I'd done her face was beaming yes yes I'll do it I was surprised by her reaction so I gave James a ring what a lovely man he is he made us feel at ease he talked to both of us described what would happen on the day and to relax and enjoy it he really made us feel that he was interested in how we felt about the photo shoot the day came Beccy had told all her friends about it she packed enough clothes to sink a small boat!! My husband drove as I'm not a confident driver and dropped us off the lady that opened the door with a beaming friendly face was so welcoming everybody was hugging each other and all the staff make up artist etc seemed like best friends the lady at the desk was so friendly we talked about her new baby Blake and then we met the photographer she was really nice very patient as Beccy went through all her clothes and the photographer advised her what to wear with what which was great Beccy said I wouldn't put that top n dungarees together but they look great don't they mum I replied its you that's making them look great love she smiled she chucked her clothes under the curtain and started to boss me about as her confidence started to build she didn't seem nervous at all in front of the camera which surprised me as she usually a little introvert then clothes change and little make up the artist was lovely she was giving Beccy advice about her hair and said her freckles were lovely and didn't want cover them up because they were cute Beccy giggled well hair tongued n make up on we we went up stairs to some steps and a wind machine her long hair blowing other parents there telling her how beautiful she looked Beccy confidence now bursting out of her chest the sunglasses were on and she was blowing kisses another clothing change hair up and extra make up  she sat on a circular Box with back lighting oh my word her eyes were twinkling in the light a tear came to my eye she looked gorgeous I thought this is gonna cost me a fortune because she looked lovely in all of them!!! The last ones she was sat on a chair and I thought I'm not too keen on them but when the photos come out they were beautiful we sat with the advisor and she said that all her photos were really good and that she wasn't nervous at all and this came through on the pictures she went through the price list which can get a bit expensive but you don't have to get them and I did feel a bit of child pressure because Beccy said please mum I really want this so £1600 later we got all the photos and a web site made the payments are interest free and worked out at £110 a month which seemed better £1000 is Rebecca's own money that I gave her when my father died 4 yr ago she hadn't known what to spend it on but she said this is it mum I want to spend it on this so that's what we did as we walked through Manchester Center Beccy was saying look mum that could be me on that bill board one day!!the next day I got a call from James asking how the shoot went he advised us to get a g mail account and join Twitter which I've no idea what I'm doing because I'm not very computer literate but he told me what to do and he would be in touch it was great knowing that he was still there supporting us as it was going round my head what have I done because it is a hell of a lot of money to us but to know he hadn't abandoned us made me feel more confident I had done the right thing meanwhile Beccy has been showing all her friends at school some of her photos on her phone she is so excited to be getting her own website the neighbours have asked for her autograph already before she gets famous haha thanks once again for helping boost Rebecca's confidence I just hope now she can see the beautiful lady that I see everyday thanks to all staff at kube studios and James for being so patient and kind to us we've met some lovely people on this big adventure!!
