YOU CAN BE ANYTHING

Skye is a creative director and photographer who runs her own modelling agency and photography studio. With no previous experience she went to college to study fine art and photography. Once she had developed a portfolio which, supported her to develop a good network within the industry and community. She began getting booked for photo shoots from friends, family, and other creatives. Working very cheaply supported her to develop her portfolio further and gave her a contact list of hundreds of models which, helped her to become known within the city.

Skye regularly referred models for work becoming a go to person for models within her network and the city. After having the idea, she spoke with a few people about the potential of opening her own agency to see if she could gain a partner in the business. Although people thought it was a good idea, she was unable to secure a partner. She then decided to do it on her own.

Skye registered her agency with just 5 models and then began to promote her company. She now has over 100 models across Birmingham and the West Midlands and runs her photography studio which, is called Atlantis Studios and modelling agency.
