Simone

Short Story behind this photo:
This is one of my dearest friends when he was living in Costa Rica. Full Italian, he spoke Spanish with a slight unidentifiable accent. He was scouted by a model agency in Costa Rica and was pushed internationally. We did this shoot because he was short listed for an Abercrombie & Fitch campaign and not having a vast portfolio, we did this quick shoot in the beach with his black surf shorts. My 5Dmk2 got sprayed with sea water thanks to a sneaky wave, but the thing still keeps going. This photo went on to appear in his portfolio in Wilhelmina Los Angeles and Place Models Hamburg.
