Melvin Davis

I figured i would start off with one of my favorite shoots to date....i shot this in the Winter of 2007 in December. I always have a habit for spending time in NYC during the cold months, and i was told i could shoot in Central Park without interruption. I met this guy Melvin Davis on Modelmayhem, and loved his facial features, his skintone, and he had amazing bone structure...not to mention an agreeable personality.

Originally from the Virginia area, He told me about his inspirations in becoming a model for Sean John (like i wanted to do)....and i told him he favored Bobby Roache (Model in Beyonce's "Irreplaceable" video, as well as a staple for Sean John as well)....I still talk to him every now and then to this day, and wouldn't mind shooting him again, if the opportunity presented itself (i didn't like the girl who he brought with him though, she COMPLETELY overstepped her boundaries....)

I was his first photoshoot....and frankly he was the most "high fashion" looking guy that I have shot out of any guy...he's gonna be something...
