First Model
Oldenburg is a city in the state of Lower Saxony, west of Bremen. Of the 182 German agencies in our catalogue, one is here. The catalogue lists every agency that represents models; we do not vouch for them, and each profile shows what we found, good and bad: fees charged to applicants, schools, company status and press reports.
First Model calls itself an owner-run agency for events, models and more. Its address is on Zuschlag in the Nadorst quarter, and the company, Together One GmbH, is entered in the commercial register at the Oldenburg court. On its website the agency says it reviews an online application before adding the person to its file, and that the Sedcard profile costs nothing. Besides representing models, it runs the "Vote 2 Win" contest, shooting days with workshops and company events. Before you sign up for an event or a shooting day, ask whether taking part costs anything and whether it is linked to being accepted by the agency.
In the catalogue the agency is listed on the pages women, men and senior.

How to get started
- Take simple digitals in daylight and write down accurate measurements.
- Check on the agency's profile whether it charges applicants and how much, and compare it with others. Among commercial and people agencies a fee for Sedcard photos is common.
- Be wary of pressure to sign on the spot, mass castings in hotels and contracts that renew themselves: these are signs of a modeling scam.
- For fashion work, pick a few agencies in Hamburg or Berlin and only travel once you have been invited to meet.
- Contracts, commission, tax and the rules for minors are covered in the guide Modeling agencies in Germany.
