When our panel saw images of pretty 9-year-old child model Ellie Hendry – with her large eyes, lashes to die for, high cheekbones and flawless porcelain complexion – they knew that she would make a fantastic addition to the books here at our agency.

But Ellie doesn’t just have the look that fits – she also shows talent in many areas, which means she may be put forward for commercials, TV, film extras, and walk-on parts, as well as photographic and fashion modelling. We had a chat with Ellie to find out more about what sets her apart from other potential models and actresses her age and what inspired she and her family to put their trust in Talent Management as her representation. Read on to find out what she had to say.
