amazing interview as always.
i always love your blog and the model features. most of them make me really inspired, since i'm an aspiring one myself :)
and it's amazing how they took 15 hours for a perfect shot. fashion modeling and photography are really tougher than i think.
he's really someone with such unique face, i agree. it's good to have more models with unique faces, since nowadays the industry mostly 'plays safe' , which starting to get boring :)
Great interview...I really like his look...and 15 hours wow..tough
