    2012 - 05.16

    Being the faster as I can inside the pool

    That´s Bruno´s words to express himself how he atracts someone´s attention. And I def agree with him!. Bruno is one of our brazilian olympic swimmers that will be in the London´s 2012 Olympics and also he has joined the World of Models family, after all, he got THE LOOK!

    Good luck Bruno and send my best regards to all brazilian swimmers that will be in London.

    Brazil is really so proud of you guys!

    Valeu!!!!

    Ed, the brazilian editor

    First of all, thanks for the opportunity. There’s not much to say about myself, my life is basically all around my routine of training and competition, so I try to have the best discipline I can during the training season.

    I was born in Macaé, a city located in the state of Rio de Janeiro in 1989 and I was raised in Natal (north city of Brazil), the place where I enjoy surfing and it has the best  shrimp and fried fish ever!

    Photographer Ronaldo Gutierrez: “Image worth a whole book or a unique word. The quantity of words is not important but its message is”

    2012 - 05.16

    I’m a brazilian photographer and I was born in São Paulo. Since my childhood I have been atracted to some classic painters such as Leonardo da Vince, Rubens, Caravaggio and others. I have always wanted to be a painter and create some pieces of art, however, I don’t  even know how to draw a circle, so I decided to create my own pictures.

     I guess that’s what differs me from the other photographers. I always try to create a story and not necessarily a photo.

    Howdy, World of Models. I am a fairytale girl who believes anything is possible when my mind is put to it. I am a Taurus, which happens to be one of the most memorable zodiac signs of them all. I think of myself as Wendy from the classic Walt Disney movie Peter Pan. I live in Never-never land. My dreams become reality. I think big and imagine even bigger.

     I was born in Los Angeles and partially raised in Houston, Texas by my grandmother.I later returned back to Los Angeles California where I finished my education and began my career as an agency signed Model.

    Upon discovering my talent in the fashion world, I discovered that I liked arts and crafts, going to the gun shooting range, Baking desserts, and collecting Collector Edition Barbie Dolls. I have now collected over 150 but my collect wont stop there.

    Michelle Dantas: “I wanted to be a model since l was child. In that time, I used to wear my mom’s clothes, some of her high heels as well”

    2012 - 04.30

     

    I’m from a small town in the state of São Paulo, named Birigui.I believe the patience, discipline, perseverance , attitude, determination and simplicity are   the keys to success both personally and professionally. I love to travel, to enjoy every moment of my life with my family, boyfriend, friends and in my work  too.

     

    Actually, I “discovered” that I wanted to be a model since l was child. In that time, I used to wear my mom’s clothes,  some of her high heels as well, and  asked my parents to watch me on the “catwalk” in the living room.

    David Tan: “Collaboration. Trust. Friendship. Models have also flown in from other countries just to shoot the Tainted Perfection series with me or to do testshoots at their own expense”

    2012 - 04.22

    I was born in Singapore, but lived in Australia and the USA for almost ten years.

    I started photography when I was at the university in Melbourne, shooting mainly sports for the college yearbook. It is important to already ‘see’ the image of your mind on sports photography as you need to anticipate and capture the moment. There is no second chance!

    I also attended law school at Harvard, and I am now a full-time professor teaching entertainment law. I have contributed to magazines like Harper’s Bazaar, Elle, Marie Claire, FHM, Men’s Folio, Da Man and Men’s Uno.
