uns* is an exclusively LGBTQIA+ model and talent agency that celebrates the vast diversity of the community and advocates for the representation of all genders, sexualities, ethnicities, bodies, abilities, and backgrounds across all areas of fashion and media.

uns* is the first LGBTQIA+ model and talent agency in Germany. It was founded in 2020 by British photographer Cora Hamilton (they/them) and German-Polish model Max Weiland (they/he). uns* represents a collective effort towards a future in fashion and media that is rich in diversity and representation, where every body is seen, celebrated, and included.
Cora Hamilton is the co-founder and Creative Director of uns*. They studied Pop Music at Goldsmiths University of London and moved to Berlin in 2018. Before founding uns*, they worked as a freelance photographer, which they continue to do, especially in the fields of fashion, portraits, and events.
Max Weiland is a model, speaker, and author. With an artistic and performative background, they discovered modeling in their mid-20s, which led to an intensive exploration of their own gender. Having experienced the fashion and media landscape as an unfriendly place for people who don’t conform to the binary and normative beauty ideal, Max aims to create safer and more equitable working conditions for LGBTQIA+ talents with uns*.
