Meet the Founder

Stephanie Heaney

Stephanie Heaney is the founder of SH Model Agency and brings something particularly valuable to the business: first-hand experience of the modelling industry from the talent’s side of the camera. Glasgow-based with an international profile, Stephanie has built a career spanning modelling, content creation, hosting and brand collaborations, gracing the covers of prestigious magazines and appearing on billboard campaigns at home and abroad.

Since then, Stephanie has continued to develop a significant personal platform, building an audience of more than 100,000 followers and establishing herself across fashion, beauty, lifestyle and entertainment. Her work has taken her beyond Scotland and the wider UK, with projects and connections across Europe, including Monaco and the French Riviera, giving her an international perspective that now feeds directly into the direction of SH Model Agency.

Why SH Model Agency

Founded from experience,built on belief.

SH Model Agency was created from Stephanie’s own understanding of what it actually feels like to build a career in modelling. Having experienced the opportunities, challenges and realities of the industry herself, she wanted to create an agency centred around discovering potential, developing confidence and representing talent professionally across the UK and Europe. Rather than focusing solely on appearance, the vision is to help models develop their portfolios, experience and personal brands while connecting them with genuine opportunities across fashion, commercial, promotional, lifestyle and creative work.

Stephanie’s own career is also proof that there doesn’t have to be one conventional route into modelling. From editorial covers to billboard campaigns, her breakthroughs came from persistence, presence and personality rather than a textbook path. That experience helps shape the ethos behind SH Model Agency: talent shouldn’t be dismissed simply because it doesn’t fit an outdated industry stereotype. The agency aims to champion individuality, confidence and personality, opening doors for emerging and established models throughout the UK and European markets.

Today, Stephanie is using the experience, industry relationships and audience she has developed throughout her own career to build SH Model Agency into a modern international agency with roots in Scotland and ambitions spanning the UK and Europe. For Stephanie, it’s about creating the kind of representation she understands models need — personal, supportive and commercially focused — while giving brands, agencies, photographers and creative partners access to a growing roster of distinctive talent.
