a few things are taken into consideration before assigning models to bookings:

1. clients select their top 3 models in a model selection process.
   
   in model selection, clients can see the entire model directory for one location. models are surfaced by most available to least available. clients also can filter models based on traits.
   
   

2. our scheduling team assesses if the model's availability lines up with our studio, photographer, and (sometimes) other provider availability.
   
   this is also where allergies, skills, or limitations communicated to us may be taken into consideration. they will assign the providers that meet the clients needs and can get the shoot on the calendar the quickest. (please still review shoot goals to ensure you are comfortable before accepting.)
   
   

if you have not received an assignment, it can just be a matter of time since assignments are given based on client demand.
