Become a model in Haarlem
Want to become a model in Haarlem? ROW ONE accepts applications from Haarlem and the surrounding area free of charge: four natural photos, your measurements and contact details are enough. You hear from us either way, and we meet by video call or at a casting nearby. No fees, no courses, jobs in fashion, commercial, e-commerce and shows.
Why Haarlem
You live in Haarlem and want to work as a model? ROW ONE is looking for new faces across Netherlands: for fashion, commercial, e-commerce and shows. You do not need experience, but you do need reliability. The application takes five minutes and costs nothing.
The agency grew out of THE GOOD STAFF, which has staffed events for years. We know what clients book, and we only take models we can actually place. That is why the board is small and the jobs are real.

Why Haarlem
Models from smaller cities like Haarlem are on our board too. Jobs come from regional companies and from the larger cities nearby, Hoofddorp, Zaanstad and Amsterdam among them.
If you live in Haarlem, you will mostly work in the region and travel to Rotterdam and Amsterdam for campaigns and shows. Travel costs are paid by the client.
Travel and support
Applicants from Netherlands are welcome. From Haarlem everything up to the first casting happens online; jobs are in Netherlands and in Germany, with travel paid by the client.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Haarlem?
Experience is not a requirement. What counts: four natural photos, correct measurements and the willingness to travel to castings and productions.
02Does the application cost anything?
No. Application, admission and first polaroids are free. We earn a commission on jobs, never from you.
03How tall do I need to be?
Guide values: women 172 to 181 cm, men 184 to 192 cm for fashion. For commercial and e-commerce we book outside these ranges as well.
04Will I hear back?
We read every application in Haarlem and answer each one, with a clear yes or no.
05What about my photos and data?
Application photos are stored in private storage, not on the website, and deleted if we do not take you on. Board photos are published only with your consent.
06Which photos should I send?
Phone photos are fine. We need to see you, not a production: daylight, neutral background, fitted clothes, no edits.
07Do I have to be exclusive with ROW ONE?
No. Exclusivity is an option we discuss once you have worked with us; it is never a condition for admission.
08From what age can I apply?
From 18 without further ado, from 16 with parental consent. There is no upper limit: classic models over 40 are in demand.
