Dominika had her hair and make-up done at the studio
Karen Diamond says such companies "suck in these youngsters who desperately want to be models"

Dominika: "I begged my mum for model fee"
Young, aspiring models are being lured into parting with cash by the increasingly sophisticated methods of companies which falsely promise them the chance to work with top brands.
"I just felt like it was my fault," says 16-year-old Dominika Sadurek, from Chiswick, west London.
"Having this happen to you leaves you in a really vulnerable position and makes you wonder how you were so stupid."
Dominika was finishing her GCSEs when she decided to submit her picture to a company offering a gateway to the modelling world.
Friends had been telling her to go for it, and while she did not expect it to lead to anything, the thought of being able to make her own way in life appealed to her.
"It had exactly the same criteria on its website as some of the big agencies," she says, explaining why she thought it was legitimate.
A week later, the company called her mother, Wioletta - as Dominika was under 16 at the time - inviting her daughter to a photoshoot at a small studio in Mayfair, an opportunity she could not wait to embrace.
"I took five outfit changes because they wanted to see me in different looks," she says.
"The staff were really welcoming - I had my hair done, my make-up done. They did soft looks, hard looks."
So far, so good - a professional operation with a knowledgeable team, it seemed.
Wioletta felt uncomfortable, having been asked to invest in one of their package deals, which range from £500 to £6,000 - some of which included having her daughter's photos displayed on the company's website.
"I could see almost straight away that this was a kind of manipulation game going on," she says.
But her daughter did not want to lose what she thought could be her big chance in the industry.
"She got tears in her eyes - 'Please, please, I beg you, I really want to do this. This is my lifetime opportunity'."
Wioletta eventually agreed to hand over £400, which Dominika was to pay back.
They were led to believe this would lead to modelling work, but Dominika never received any approach and the pair's calls were never returned. After a month they gave up.
There are dozens of such companies preying on teenagers who are desperate to get into the industry.
The Victoria Derbyshire programme has spoken to families who have handed over thousands of pounds for photographs in the belief their child could be a model.
Karen Diamond, director at Models1, who has 30 years' experience in the industry, says such companies' behaviour is becoming more sophisticated.
"When I first started it was all about the lone photographer who would charge for a portfolio," she says.
"Now you have someone scouting them on the street or social media, who then lures them into a studio environment that can look very professional.
"There is a flashy website, and all of these things will encourage people to think they have a good reputation, and will suck in these youngsters who desperately want to be models.
"It absolutely destroys these young people's confidence."
Mirela, from Hertfordshire, wanted to help her stepdaughter become a model.
They uploaded a picture to the same company website used by Dominika and received a call offering a photoshoot.
At the studio, the staff laid on the compliments.
"He said, 'She looks beautiful. She will get a job in no time, no problem'," says Mirela, who asked us to withhold her stepdaughter's name.
"And then he started to list names [of brands who would want to work with her].
"Because of the marketing speech he gave us we were feeling like we were doing something great for my stepdaughter.
"He said we could pay £2,500, and I said we couldn't afford it - so finally we said we could pay £1,000."
But when they returned home they knew there was a problem.
"We couldn't read the DVD [which was supposed to contain the portfolio of images]. There were no pictures," she says.
"And then I tried to call them three times, and I knew it was bad. There was no customer service."
Mirela was not given back the money she spent.
The company used by Dominika and Mirela's stepdaughter was London Fashion Models.
The Victoria Derbyshire programme has spoken to other people who have had similar experiences with the business.
The programme tried to contact it by email and letter, but has had no response.
Another company, The Studio Works, is registered at the same address as London Fashion Models.
The phone numbers for London Fashion Models and The Studio Works now lead to a call centre for a different model "platform".
In a phone call last week they said they no longer dealt with aftercare enquiries for London Fashion Models.
There are other companies operating with names similar to London Fashion Models and The Studio Works which are not connected to them and have not formed part of our investigation.
For Dominika, it was not just about the money, but also the dip in her confidence, at a time when she was already struggling under the pressure of imminent exams.
"All of it was a bunch of lies and she was really frustrated," her mother says.
"I could see her being lied to and cheated."

Some of the Hollywood films like “Misery,” “Room,” etc. have the most exciting plot of kidnapping with the suspense ending. But Chloe Ayling’s abduction story is not any less than a Hollywood twist.
British Glamour model Chloe Ayling was the big sensation in the news headlines in August 2017, when she was held in captivity for 6 days after being offered a fake photoshoot in Milan, Italy.
Chloe Ayling, a former contestant of the British reality show “Celebrity Big Brother,” got a modeling project by a Polish man named Łukasz Herba in July 2017. Hebra worked for a group of Romanian traffickers called Black Death.
In her statements, Chloe said that the tranquilizer ketamine had been injected into her body. Her kidnapper tied her hands with handcuffs, put her in a large black suitcase, and she was taken by car to a remote farmhouse near Turin.
She (then 20) was held in captivity for 6 days by Herba and could have been sold on the dark web as a sex slave for $300,000.
But the story does not end here. According to the reports, Ayling had spent around 3 weeks in Italy while the police were investigating her case before she returned home in south London.
Ayling gave her first interview in a low-cut top and hotpants while playing with a dog in her mother’s garden. She was happily smiling when the reporters reached her.
Many people believed that it was just a publicity stunt for grabbing attention and gaining followers on social media.
Reporters started asking her difficult questions like why she had been spotted with her kidnapper by a CCTV, holding his hand, and shopping in an Italian village?
On October 4, 2017, Chloe appeared on the talk show “ Good Morning Britain ,” where the host of the show interrogated her. She was asked why she would hang out with her kidnapper and buy new shoes. Her answers were not convincing but she stood her ground and said: “It will all come out in the end.”
Let’s hear what Lukasz Herba had to say.
During his hearings, Herba (then 30) claimed that Chloe was facing financial difficulties, so they agreed to this modeling project to help her with money after her son was born. He also claimed he was in love with her and the kidnapping was staged and inspired by the film “By Any Means.”
Later in 2018, he was found guilty by the court in Milan for drugging Ayling with ketamine and was sent to 16 years of jail on the charges of abduction and auctioning her on the dark web for $300K.
Chloe said that Herba had tried to brainwash her, saying that he was a member of Black Death to whom he had to pay a debt of $300K if they want to be free.
He also told Ayling that if she was sold as a slave, she would be fed to tigers by her buyer if he got bored. He also told her that she was kidnapped by two Black Death men from Milan but when he found out that they made a mistake, he came to rescue her from Rome. Because it is unethical for the group to kidnap pregnant women and mothers as they are not worthy in the market.
Later, in the court, it was proved that Herba had been lying, and he admitted that he had created the fake group and planned the kidnapping with his brother Michael.
Here, the story becomes more intense when Ayling said that she had spent the first day in the farmhouse handcuffed to the furniture. She even did not resist saying “no” when Herba asked her to share a bed with him the next day. She was terrified and had a feeling that if she could make him feel better then maybe he would help her escape.
Ayling was totally brainwashed when Herba told her another lie that they had already met earlier in April 2017 during a fake photoshoot in Paris.
Herba changed his story several times. While Ayling was in captivity, he told her that Black Death paid him to kidnap her but when he found that she was a mother, he refused.
In court, he had a different one. He indeed had a plan to kidnap Ayling but panicked when he heard about the terrorist attack on the Champs Élysées.
Nevertheless, now we know that Herba is a serious offender here, Ayling had no clue that he was the mastermind behind her abduction. Until the court gave its judgment, she was still thinking that she was helping him to pay back his debt to Black Death.
Herba asked her that after his release from the jail, she should transfer $58,000 in bitcoin and help him expose Black Death to the public.
Herba knew his plan had failed and due to some empathy left in him for Ayling, he drove her to the UK consulate in Milan. They had breakfast together before the consulate opened and were laughing together. Herba said to Ayling to tell everybody that he was her friend and helped her escape from kidnapping.
When Chloe Ayling’s story hit the media, she was accused of faking her own kidnapping. She even got a chance to feature in “ Celebrity Big Brother ,” where she admitted to having shared a bed with former English footballer, Jermaine Pennant.
Ayling, 24, is also an Instagram model , where she was more than 200K following .
Last year, Herba’s brother, Michael, was given the same sentence as his brother. He was arrested by the cops in Midlands, England.

No, she wasn’t ‘abducted’ (on a simple Leben, the judge’s already cut 10yrs off one of the supposed kidnappers.
The actual story here, is how a lying amoral young woman – with knew thing on her mind – fame – is, frighteningly the ‘new normal’.
I can think of different cases – one of a horrific abduction of two young men, in the States (Rochester, NY), who were violently tortured for days, and once of the young women involved in this is seen in the interview room with police, acting as if it’s nothing, that it’s ‘nothing serious’, and ‘isn’t a crime’ (is IS, and again, it IS).
These are just the tip of the iceberg of how this so-called ‘millennial’ generation is only interested in themselves – and a very large part of the problem is the fault of those who raised then.
I was on a bus, yesterday, listing to my music at the loudest it would go (I STILL heard it!) – to stolen out the screams and telling of a child. Not only that, I was nowhere near this kid, but the mother did nothing. Everyone best, simply made faces of disgust. This kid would run up and down the aisle if a very crowded bus, still, this woman said nothing. When I was getting off, I had to walk up next to it, and I said, I’m not that kids parent, you don’t own this bus – is public transportation, which means we ALL have to get along, and have mutual respect for each other. You want your kids to do that at home? Your problem. You want to not do anything to teach your kid that it’s not alone in this (very overcrowded) planet? Then in a few years, you’re going to have a teenager, who’s going to walk all over you, and more than likely, end up killing itself. Good job’.
The woman’s mouth just hung open, as people all around said, ‘thanks’, to me, but I was angry. ‘Don’t thank be – you could’ve woken up yourselves and said something, but it’s as if all of society’s sleeping, and things are getting worse -rapidly’.
