Vortex Featured Model: Jerick [90's summer by Heintje and Yoo Kii]

I'm Jerick, 19 years old, studying hotel and restaurant management.

I like the color green.

In my free time, I spend my time like other teenagers do. Sometimes I find jobs in the advertising industry.

I write poems, articles, and about 'what's up', and I kinda sing, too.

"It was my first time to work with Heintje but it went well, it actually went better than what I expected. Basically he used this small vintage camera which I was not familiar with (or any other cameras) for me all of them were just DSLR cameras. His was small and seemed so plain but the photos after each shot came to my surprise. Yookii's work complimented each style, it was a messy look that we were aiming for and I think we got it."

I was trying to bring out the Cole Sprouse in me, tho I'm the cheap version(I know). I still have a long way to go, but with Heintje and Yookii for sure we'll do better."

A TALK WITH THE PHOTOGRAPHER

" Since I go home during the weekends, a couple of friends and I decided to do a shoot during our stay. We initially planned a 90's summer inspired theme and went on to try different styles from there.

Yoo Kii did the grooming and styling at our house and after shooting the first layout at our garage, we decided to hop on my car to look for other good locations for the rest of the outfits.

We found a simple pathway of trees where there were spots with harsh sunlight and diffused ambient light - perfect for our remaining layouts. It was generally a fun and light afternoon and these are the outputs of our quick portrait session. "
