Become a model in Santander
Want to become a model in Santander? ROW ONE accepts applications from Santander 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 Santander
What we look for in Santander: natural photos, honest measurements, time for castings and jobs. What we do not need: a portfolio, a course certificate or a fee. We take care of the first pictures ourselves.
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.

Santander in numbers
Why Santander
If you live in Santander, you will mostly work in the region and travel to Madrid and Barcelona for campaigns and shows. Travel costs are paid by the client.
Models from smaller cities like Santander are on our board too. Jobs come from regional companies and from the larger cities nearby, Barakaldo, Bilbao and Vitoria-Gasteiz among them.
Travel and support
Santander is 1,201 kilometres from Frankfurt, reachable by plane or train. We work with models across Spain; interview and polaroids happen by video, castings in the region or on set.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Santander?
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.
04Do 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.
05Do you also represent men?
Yes. The board has a men's division with the same categories: fashion, commercial, classic.
06Will I hear back?
We read every application in Santander and answer each one, with a clear yes or no.
07Do I have to come to Frankfurt?
Not for the application. The first conversation is a video call; castings happen in the region or in Frankfurt, reachable by plane or train.
08What about my photos and data?
Your data stays with us and is deleted after the process if we do not work together. Nothing is shared without your agreement.
