While scouting for models, there are times you strike gold. Enter Marwin, a 19-year-old track athlete with the elegance and strength of a Greek god, embodying the spirit of the 400 meter dash. When he responded to my ad, his simple “very interested” turned into an exciting rendezvous.
A casual coffee meet, ahead of our photo session, revealed layers of his persona. As the steam from our cups danced in the air, so did Marwin’s stories. Beyond the athletic façade, he’s an avid reader, particularly entranced by classics and art history. He paints in his spare time and is learning the cello – an unexpected delight!
What struck me most was the raw authenticity he carried. He’s comfortable in his skin, making him a photographer’s dream. Every angle highlighted the sculpted muscles, the result of countless hours of training, yet it’s his piercing gaze and infectious smile that steal the show. We captured more than just a model; we captured a story.
