Food For Models

Keeping it natural…Healthy recipe for busy models!

Keeping it Natural

In the pursuit of a beautiful, healthy body, it’s important to seek true nourishment, and the most nourishing thing you can eat is a whole food diet full of natural and organic foods. A typical modern diet of packaged and processed foods will not properly fuel your body. Diets high in sugars, low in protein and missing all fat will only keep your body buzzing along; not thriving, healthy, and beautiful from the inside out.

When you fuel your body with natural and organic foods, you invest in yourself. Food crops grown with pesticides and processed with chemicals; meat raised eating these crops and being injected with hormones and antibiotics; and foods packaged with preservatives and additives, will only pump all of those pesticides, chemicals, hormones, antibiotics and additives into your body. Whole, organic foods are free from these contaminants and provide you with the nutrients your body needs without the possible harm that could come from processed foods.

It may be cliché, but breakfast truly is the most important meal of the day. Especially when you are active and busy, it is so important to fuel your body to accomplish all those to-dos on your list every day. A healthy breakfast of natural foods, like these wonderful Egg Muffins, will fill you up and keep you full to tackle the day in style.

Because the eggs are the foundation of this recipe, it is very important to pick high quality eggs. For a long time, eggs were given a bad rap, but their amazing combination of healthy fat and natural protein are now being recognized as a great source of nourishment that should be included often if our diets. The healthiest eggs come from healthy chickens and chickens are healthiest when they are allowed to roam free on pasture, so look for pastured eggs at your grocery store or natural foods store, or better yet, get eggs from a local source you can trust to raise their chickens well.

These Egg Muffins make a very easy and versatile meal. To the basic egg mixture, you can add any and all of your favorite fillers – veggies, meats, cheeses, whatever you like! My favorite combinations are broccoli with diced ham and Swiss cheese, or mushrooms with bacon and cheddar cheese. Yum! Served with a big bowl of fresh organic fruit, these Egg Muffins will fill you up without weighing you down. This recipe will make 12 muffins, cook once and have nourishing breakfasts all week long. They also freeze well!

How to make Egg Muffins

12 eggs (you can replace some of the eggs with egg whites)

½ cup milk, half & half or cream

Salt and pepper

½ cup your favorite shredded cheese

Up to 1 cup of any combination of your favorite veggies or meats

Some great additions include:

Sautéed onions, mushrooms, zucchini or spinach

Blanched broccoli

Bell peppers in your preferred color

Green onions

Crumbled bacon

Diced ham

Shredded chicken

Preheat your oven to 375° F
Prepare your muffin pan (these egg muffins stick, so be sure to use lots of butter or oil or muffin liners or a silicone muffin pan).
Whisk together your eggs, milk/cream and salt and pepper.
Put a small heap of your cheese and chosen filling ingredients in the bottom of each muffin well.
Distribute the egg mixture between wells, each one should be filled about ¾ of the way.
Bake for 25-35 minutes until set in the center.

Silver Models is a scam

Getting Scammed by Silver Models

My daughter is 12 years old and she always wanted to do modelling, So I decided to have a look into it. I came across Silver Models and registered with them, they phoned me back within 3 hours of me doing registration form and was really friendly and helpful. They said the best way to get my daughter Olivia into modelling was to attend a photo shoot which they would organise but for them to do all this and registered Olivia with their agency I needed to pay a fee of £300, they said they would then said me documents containing receipt of payment and booking of Studio. I reluctantly paid the fee it was a lot but i knew it meant a lot to my daughter, i paid via card and received the promised email within minutes so that made me relax. We attend the shoot and took our booking form but once the shoot was over I had the shock of my life, they asked me to pay the bill for shoot and for any images we wanted, the shoot was £500 and images £800, i knew i would be buying images but i thought Silver Models organised the shoot, the photo studio was very kind and allowed me to ring silver models. On calling silver models they explained that all the details was in documents they had sent and I had signed, in small print it said silver models take a payment for advice and organising of shoot but do not pay for any shot costs or booking of jobs, it was in the paperwork all along but in very small print. So I had been scammed on the phone they said much different and in documents said alot different, i was stupid to not have read paperwork but Silver models had been so helpful and had rung me several times with advice and support, i just didnt doubt doubt their honesty. They are liars, they cost me a fortune and really ruined what was a lovely day. DO NOT pay them anything or work with them, you are only paying for some basic phone advice and that is it, they do nothing to help you. Word of advice never pay anything without researching and always read any contracts!! There are some great modelling advice companies out there but Silver models is not one!

People Models is a scam agency avoid them

Scammers- Whole people Models

I’m Brandon and I am 23 years old from Cornwall. 6 months I ago I got scammed by a company called Whole people models, they are true scum bags and the word needs spreading.
I hadnt even thought about modelling, till a guy called Liam contacted me who was an apparant model booker at whole peoples models, we exchanged messages via facebook for a couple of days and he told me about loads of male models he helped and who are all earning loads of money while travelling etc it sounded ace if i am honest, I am 23 years old so earning good money while having fun is my idea of a perfect job. He said he he had job which would be perfect me and send me some info via facebook messenger, it looked like a client brief of job and contained the pay etc he said because i wasnt on whole peoples books i would need to pay a fee then he could get me this job, the fee was for £200 but i would then be on books and first job was in another three days time where i would earn £1500, so £200 didnt seem a big deal at the time. Liam said time was precious and i would need to pay cash into their account, so it was instant then i would get confirmation of job. I paid the fee the same day, then within hours the person i had been talking on facebook had disappared, no profile picture, nothing. i knew then i had been scammed by whole people models, i panicked and was gutted, i researched and couldnt find anything on them, i had well and truely been scammed out of £200 all because he filled my head with idea of being a famous modelling and earning loads. I am so embarassed i listened but whole people models said the right things, they are definately good at being liars and scammers. If anyone gets contact from whole people models, avoid them, they are liying, cheating, scam artists. I was foolish but i have learnt never believe what you get told before doing research, never trust someone who contacts you out of the blue and never just had over cash. I am out of £200 and i want others to be aware of these scamming companies. do you research!

Sam Mason Models- AVOID! SCAMMERS

Sam Mason Models- AVOID!

I am Rosie, 27 years old from Essex. I have always had an interest in fashion, loved reading magazines and attending fashion events with my friends,so i thought why not try to be a model myself. Little did i know my journey would begin with being scammed. i went online and there are tones of different sights, its proper confusing my i registered with three blogs asking for info and one came back to me called Sam Mason models, they said they were a modelling agecny and could guarantee me paid work within a month, they then emailed me with more details, they asked for my phone and said they woud ring me, when they did the number was private but to be honest Ii didnt think much of it as i was more excited i was talking to someone in the industry. They explained the modelling industry and they seemed to know alot, they were really friendly and seemed so eager for me to sign up with me as they had seen my profile picture on a blog id signed up to, i was flattered if i am honest.

They asked me to pay a fee of £600 this was t secure my place on their books, organise a photo shoot for my portfolio and to cover admin fees, I did question it as it was a lot of money to me and it always concerns me they said to ease my concerns I should meet with them and discuss in person, so i did two days later in a coffee shop, i met a guy called andre and he was really nice, he explained to get going quickly i need to pay the fee in cash, i felt it was ok cause i met someone and i got a reciept. he explained he would call me to set up the test shoot for a weeks time, I left feeling really excited and that my career was beginning. four days later i had any phone call or emails, so i emailed the address i originally got contacted by, it bounced back, then alarm bells started ringing i had been scammed. still till this day i never heard back from so called sam mason models and i have had no way of retrieving my money as i have no contact details or address. I look back and it still makes me feel sick i have been scammed but the moral of story is i was stupid and left myself open for being scammed, i met someone i didnt know and handed over cash, i had no contact details and didnt resreahc the company. My advice to any model is do your research, never meet strangers and never pay any money just like that, i was stupid and have been scammed so trust me it hurts but you can avoid it by doing research. I have since got my success and done this through a great modelling platform. Be aware scams are very real. Avoid Sam mason, they are scammers!

UR Models Review

My Name is Gemma and I am a 23 Year old Fashion Model based in London.

2 Years ago I decided to pursue modelling properly as it had always been a dream of mine, I had found UR Models online via a blog and I thought I would give me them and try. UR Models is a modelling platform, they make that very clear from the start as they said many think of them as agency which they aren’t, they are a advise service. I never knew before contacting them how big the modelling world was, they told me about all the different avenues you can go down but i knew mine was fashion modelling, i love fashion and have always been envious of the models on catwalks. I also knew it was a very competitive industry but i was determined.

I went to a test shoot which ur sorted for me, it was amazing! i got to practice reall posing techniques and learnt loads of new ones. it was superb! Ur helped me get the best start in my career and i now owe my success to them. I am a full time model, I have travelled to 11 different countries in last two years, walked catwalks at the biggest fashion events and I am now involved in a massive advertising campaign with a huge designer brand, i literally living the dream and i would have any of this if i hadnt contact Ur Models, they have made my modelling dreams come true and helped me achieved more than i thought possible. If any of you are wanting to me a model, then go on to Ur models website, its a simple process and they will guide you through every step. Yyou will honestly get success if you follow there advice.

UR MODELS _ A GENUINE MODELLING COMPANY

Owens Mum and UR Models

My son is 11 Years old and came to be wanting to do modelling, he has always had interest in clothes and adverts. I didnt know where to start so began my search on google, it was so over whelming with companies claiming this and that but fortunately I came across UR Models and there website was so user friendly and I felt such relief finding a company who was clear and to the point. I contacted them and explained my son wanting to model, they talked to me about child modelling as a whole, the parents role and guidelines that have to be met, I was unaware of child modelling be so big. They also gave me agencies that look after child models, this was a great help because when you search online for this it is so confusing and very scary as you don’t know who is real and who isnt.

Two weeks ago we attended a test shoot which was organised by UR Models and it was amazing, Owen loved every minute of it and all the staff knew how to work we young models, it was great to see Owen listen and learn. I was also very well looked after and I learnt a huge amount about my role as a parent, what to expect etc I walked away full of knowledge and a better understanding of the modelling world. Owen has not stopped talking about his day at the shoot and this is all thanks to the great help of UR Models. I highly reccomend these!

ur models My experience

My experience with ur models – Elisa 25 Years Old

My name is Elisa and I am a 25 year old commercial model.

I had come across ur models a lot on-line with mostly positive reviews but some negative so i was a little dubious at first. I register via their very simple on-line site form, basic questions and easy to follow. After sending the form I received a phone call from a modelling consultant and I first off explained my concerns as I had come across some bad feed back but it was refreshing to hear they new of all the bad comments an explained some competitors feel the need to bad mouth them, this was great to hear and made us realise they are honest and up front.

In detail the consultant made it clear what they do and what they don’t do, they made it very clear they are a free advice service that supports models but they by no mean an agency, this was great information as many claim they can get you work but ur Models make no claim of that, there claim is they can help and advise and from the offset I knew this was all very true.

They offered me free photo shoot, which they said would help me get some practice as a model and see what I look like on camera, so I went along 5 days after registering. I went to a London studio and straight away felt at home, everyone was so lovely to me and made me feel like a model. The shoot was successful and I left with a amazing portfolio. ur Models Models gave me some great tips on how pursue a career and what agencies I should contact if I wanted to go down that route, which I did and I am now signed to three of the 5 they gave me and I now earn great money from doing modelling. Their help didn’t stop there when ever I have had self doubt of panicked in anyway they have calmed me and given me advice that is priceless. I can hand on heart say they are a great advice company who really do what they say they will. I advised any wannabe model to go to them, it will be the best decision you make.
