River is a half British, half Irish, 15 year old boy who joined our studio after being scouted at a soccer match. His energy and thirst for attention comes from being the second youngest child of a large family. River hasn't had any trouble pursuing both his passions in sports and modelling, and he says waiting to come into the studio after school is one of the things he looks forward to the most. "'I remember I was kind of shy when I first started, but I like what I get to do now. It's fun!"
Kei Nomura
Kei's modelling career started when his parents encouraged him to try it as a part of his after-school activities. Despite being only 15 years old, he is probably on the path to perfecting more talents than any grown adult would in their lifetime. There are times when the pressures of doing so much takes a toll on Kei, but fortunately he has close friends that support him through difficult situations. "I do a lot of extra activities outside of school, but I genuinely enjoy getting to come to the studio."
Miguel José Florentino
Miguel may only be 16, but the kindness and warmth of his culture is deeply ingrained into his soul. His parents' workstyle has caused him to move homes and schools several times. However, it is owing to their connections to the studio that Miguel had found an opportunity to model. Miguel's younger brother has always been the most important person to him, but he has also started to develop some life-long friendships at the studio. "I get to experience so many different things that I would never get to anywhere else."
Scott Vassiliev
Scott spends the most time in our studio, even when he isn't participating in photoshoots. He doesn't like investing time in school, so he finds himself a little alienated from his classmates, and since his mother's death 5 years ago, when he was only 9, he has also had many difficult times at home. Fortunately, he has found a home at the studio and a team who he can call his family. "The studio is where I feel the safest. It's also where I've made my closest friends."
Conrad Luka Schwarz
Conrad's family has deep roots in the fashion industry, with his mother and older sister being regular collaborators with our studio. At the young age of 16, Conrad has already decided to continue the family legacy. His striking appearance can be attributed in part to his mixed German heritage, while his mischievous nature is likely thanks to his somewhat spoilt upbringing. "I feel like I'm able to freely express my creativity in the studio."
Yun ShiCháng
Yun is an 11-year-old monk in training who resides in a mountain monastery. His friendship with Kei was what introduced him to this studio for the first time, while his debut at the studio occurred during a city visit with his mentor. While Yun's religious duties limit his appearance at the studio, he often reminisces about his time at the studio and enjoys the idea of trying on different outfits that aren't his usual monk robes. "Even though I can't be at the studio all the time, the memories always make me smile."
Griffin Dylan Hill
Griffin, our intern photographer, draws upon a diverse range of experiences to showcase his talents. With a background in butchery and having traveled from overseas to join our studio, Griffin's journey has taken an exciting turn. After receiving an award for his photography, he is now contemplating a future career as a photographer and the possibility of securing a permanent position within our studio. "Winning the award for photography was one of my greatest achievements."
Clian de la Cruz
Clian is our young and talented designer and stylist. He spends much of his spare time with his nose in fashion magazines and adding them to his collection. He does not let being hard of hearing stop the growth of his online presence as he shows off his incredible abilities. Clian's talents are highly regarded amongst his peers from the same field and his talents are in high demand, especially for someone as young as himself. "It's like seeing my fashion designs come to life in a way I could have never imagined."
