Whether you’re on a high fashion shoot, helping to promote a new product or moving from the catwalk to the catalogue, you’re likely to be gaining revenue at different times from different sources. This can bring complexities so why not free up your valuable time and let us help you to make the most of your earnings.

Meeting your needs

Here are a few issues you might face and examples of how we can help you:

  • We’ll help you to maximise your earnings, taking into account any agency fees
  • We appreciate that you may be paid hourly, daily, per campaign or shoot so we can check whether your income is trading income (meaning you could claim more expenses) and ensure that you pay any tax twice a year via Self- Assessment.
  • Our experts will make sure that the correct tax is deducted at source.
  • Regardless of where you’re based or travel to, we’ll advise you regarding tax-deductible expenses.

We’ll help you to avoid the common tax pitfalls facing models

  • Taking account of all expenses that can be claimed, we’ll help you with the expenses associated with marketing and publicity shots and even the clothes you need for them as well as travel here and abroad.
  • We’ll help you navigate any ‘fixed assets’ to ensure that any deductions from your taxable income will be made.
  • If you opt for ‘simplified expenses’ under the new cash basis, you won’t be able to set off any losses against other income and this could limit your expense claims.
