Default model fee

Is it okay to say " The model received the the highest modelling fee" or just "model fee". Which is right?

Default Re: model fee

I am just wondering if my grammar was okay. If a fashion model received a large contract deposit, is it okay to say " she received a high model fee or modelling fee".? Which is right?

Normally, 'modelling', LD but I suspect that there could be some situations where 'model' might be used.

However, in this context, you have the word 'model' so 'medelling' seerms unnecessary to me, though in other contexts it is the term I would use.
