I usually find that people who call others idiots are merely using the psychological phenominum of 'projection', that they unconsciously think of themselves as idiots having been called stupid at a tender age which then sinks deeply into their psyche and to make themselves feel better about themselves they dump these feelings on others.

When you judge others, you do not define them, you define yourself.

I would agree with Earl Nightingale in that you've done a pretty good job in defining yourself, and not others

Saw this on the health and beauty board. £2K for some photos? Seriously, who has even got that kind of money?! Vulnerable, no, gullible, yes.

Of course it could just be a wind-up post (OP hasn't returned, I see) in which case perhaps we're the gullible ones for answering

It won't be a wind up. They have high pressure sales.

Thank you for your comment about sales pressure. Firstly, just to clarify, it was Six Models that I googled for the modelling prospects, who then organised the photo shoot with Mac studios. My daughter was short listed for the photo shoot so you can imagine how happy we were and told to bring btw 5-6 outfits. After the 3 hours of photos shoot, during the assessment with Mac studios the sales person started discussing some of their personal stuff which we could relate to hence making us fill we had some common grounds. She then told us that majority of the photos taken were suitable for my daughter’s portfolio and she was really surprised that my daughter was so professional without any previous experience in modelling. She said they only gave positive feedback to roughly 10% of the clients that walk through their door monthly.


(the next text is from Six Models


My name is Jake and I am the one who will be helping you in regard to linking ......with agencies. Hope this email finds you well!


Her portfolio looks absolutely amazing! She looks phenomenal!


She had the greatest feedback from your assessor over from MAC that day! So very well done!


I particularly love her location shoots.
Even most experienced models find difficulty shooting in public but she is a pro!
You should all be so super proud!
Did she enjoy the shoot?
Kind regards,


Jake )




Getting those types of comments left us speechless therefore I just wanted like any other parents the best for my child.

They had you hook line and sinker but they didn't promise you anything they didn't deliver.

Don't be so gullible next time.

Hasn't the "Scam studio" been done to death on progs such as "Watchdog", I'm amazed people still fall for it.

Six models , this company's London offices are actually virtual offices.
It's always useful to do a google search for words like "scam" " reviews" and look at whether a company changes its address a lot.. or see if they are hiding their domain behind a po box ( as six models is)

"'A lady sitting next to me... (no way, shape or form would she be a model EVER) told me the exact same story as what I was spun about my 10-year-old YES 10 YEARS OF AGE, they are even doing this to innocent kids!
'The lady word for word told me the exact same yarn that I had been spun although [I was] already doubtful "
