You need a model for a lookbook, a photographer for a campaign, a make-up artist for a runway show. You can contact them today, without going through anyone.
Finding the right talent remains the most time-consuming stage of any fashion project. You have to identify profiles, check availability, negotiate and coordinate. Many brands give up for lack of time, or pay a commission on an introduction they could have made themselves.
The Shaare Agency directory addresses exactly that. It brings together models, photographers, influencers, make-up artists and hair stylists, all freely browsable. You contact the profiles you want directly, with no access fee and no commission on the collaboration.
How it works
The principle comes down to three steps, and browsing profiles requires no prior sign-up.
You browse the directory filtering by profession, city. You message the profile you have selected. You agree terms, timing and rates between yourselves. Shaare takes nothing from that collaboration and plays no part in the negotiation.
The talent listed
The directory covers the five professions any fashion or beauty project depends on, from an e-commerce shoot to a full brand campaign.
Around forty new profiles join the directory every month, and more than 250 brands have already found collaborators there. You will find both established talent and emerging profiles, which lets you match the casting to your budget and to your brand's world.
Why access is free for brands
The question deserves a straight answer, because free services often invite suspicion. Our model rests on talent subscriptions: creatives pay to be listed and gain visibility. Brands access the directory freely.
That has one direct consequence: we have no interest in filtering your conversations or taking a cut of your collaborations. Our role stops at the introduction, and our interest is simply that it works, so that talent and brands both come back.
This does not mean the traditional model has lost its purpose. An agency representing talent brings guidance, curation and administrative handling. The directory answers a different need: speed and budget control, when you know what you are looking for and want to move quickly.
Worth remembering: casting is the most decisive stage of any production. Talent suited to your world prevents reshoots, which remain the main source of budget overrun on a shoot.
No time to search? Hand us your casting
Some brands prefer to delegate. You can send us your brief describing the project, your creative direction, your dates and your budget. We come back with a selection of profiles matching your needs.
Beyond casting, Shaare Agency supports brands on content production, creator campaign management and events. If your need goes beyond a simple introduction, we can handle the whole thing, from brief to final delivery. To understand how to structure that production, see our guide to fashion content production.
