# Create a Custom Model

Creating a Custom Model allows you to generate photoshoots using a model that matches your brand's preferred look and identity. Instead of relying only on pre-built models, you can create your own model for more consistent results across campaigns, collections, and product drops. This helps you maintain a cohesive visual style while saving time on repeated model selection.

Follow these steps to create your own custom model in just a few clicks.

## Step 1: Go to Assets and Create Model

Go to the **Assets** section on the left pane and click on **Create Model** to start generating a custom model for your photoshoot.

## Step 2: Select Model Identity

Choose the model's **identity attributes**, including gender, age, ethnicity, body type, and skin tone. These details help define the overall look of your model.
