Boutique Partner Information
While you may think it is easier to snap a quick picture of your items and post them to your page, statistics show that products being modeled by a child/adult of the appropriate age for the item is more likely to sell than an item with a snap shot photo. While we know you are probably bombarded with requests from moms daily about having their children model for your boutique, we are a service that likes to take the hassle out of choosing the perfect model by providing an organized, easy way for you to choose the model(s) that is right for you. All you have to do, is choose the model(s) that you are wanting to book, send us the booking information (detailed information list found below), and we will take care of all of the communication while you continue to market your business.
Boutiques that use modeling placement services tend to have more fans due to the fantastic visuals that our models can provide for you. When customers go into a store (or shop online) they tend to image themselves or a loved one the items before purchasing. With photos of models showing off your items, that provides the customer with a piece of mind that they wouldn't have if they were looking at a cell phone snap shot of your creations.
It is completely FREE to list your boutique with us at Ellie Kate Models! We have over 100 models that would love to work with you! The only thing that we ask, is that the models receive the modelings that you send as compensation for the photos that they return. While most of our models use professional photographers, they are having to pay all of the required photographer fees and the rights to the photos.

*** Ellie Kate Models is not responsible for any lost or stolen merchadise. Please be sure to provide a confirmation tracking number on ALL packages so that we are able to be sure when the package arrives to the model and so we can keep track of when their 10 days is up. We encourage you to use our note on the facebook page Here to see updates on the status of your booking. If for any reason a model declines the booking once the items have been shipped to you, they will be asked to ship the items back to you at their expense, or to ship them to another model for you, also at their expense.
Starting Jan 2012, ALL Ellie Kate Models will have to have a Release Form on file. Until then, if you are worried about the rights to the photos that you will receive and would only like to book models who have a release form on file, please email Kate at elliekatemodels@gmail.com and we can get you a list of those models for you to choose from.
Thank you!
