Ezra A.

Ezra A., a young and handsome Hawaiian native, was the star of my trip to Hawaii. This time, I wasn’t planning any shoots; I just wanted to relax and enjoy the island until one of my friends’ weddings. When I checked into my hotel, I saw this incredibly attractive young man working as a valet. He was like a Hawaiian dream come true! I checked in and went upstairs to my room to rest.

The next day, I headed to the beach where I was staying. Guess who I saw again? This time, he was at the surfboard rental. I’m not really a beach person, but I was totally intrigued by him. I walked over and introduced myself. I asked if he was a model, and he smiled and said no, but he’s always dreamed of being one. I told him I’m a photographer from New York and always on the lookout for models. He mentioned that he’s been to New York before and hopes to go back someday. If he does, we could definitely shoot together. But as you know, I never leave my camera behind on vacation. I gave him my room number, and the rest is history. Ezra A.’s book is out now!
