Some people want to model, other people get asked to model, Adam David should model. The 5-10 (1.8m) 165lb (75kg) 20-year-old Puerto Rican personal trainer is a natural who is as open minded as he is blessed.

"The moment I saw Adam I knew I wanted to create a fresh and stoic look with him for a head shot. Adam has this great look that is very masculine, yet youthful, so hinting at something classically Roman was perfect. He is one of the best male faces I've worked with yet - not to mention his body isn''t too shabby either." - Make-Up Artist Randall Jenson

Stylist Richard Paden finishes Model Adam David's look on an Ice covered beach. "it was THE COLDEST day ever! There was snow up to my waist. I felt bad for Adam but he didn't complain once," Paden explained. Every winter ice forms on Lake Michgan and is driven ashore by swells. Add a few layers of snow, and crashing waves and you get mounds if ice that resemeble sand dunes. For this shot I really wanted to capture model Adam David in an open shirt so I planned the shoot for the first day the air temp was above 32 °F (0 °C). The only problem though was that the wind was blowing so hard, Adam never looked comfortable and his eyes kept watering.


Adam fools around in the kitchen with friend and model Leo Franco.







It didn't take long for my friends and I to start calling this photo 'Ice, ice baby.'
