This issue is probably my favorite one so far. It’s all about creative editorials, badass photography and fearless models. The theme is Wanderlust and Wild at Heart featuring creative editorials with models, photographers and artists from the U.S., Australia, Germany and Sweden.

Choosing a cover for this issue was a no brainer. When model Karli Koffin
/ModelsInk
approached me about submitting images for the magazine, she mentioned she was doing a shoot with Hugo Velazquez from Hugo V

Photography. Before seeing any of the images, I already knew that one of hers would be the cover. She is absolutely stunning!

WORLD TAVELER • ARTIST • TATTOO COLLECTOR • WANDERLUST
Zach Byers joined the USAF over 8 years ago and has been stationed in Japan, Korea, England, Oregon and Germany. Joining the military has been one of the best decisions of his life, he says. It has allowed him to learn multiple skill sets and also travel the world. He has been to over 35 countries and all 50 states. Along the way he has collected quite a few tattoos. He only began painting a little over two years ago, a skill he learned merely to impress a girl and the rest is history. His mix of abstract paint combining a drip style with iconic figures gives hime a unique style that is being sought after by many, including musicians, artists and even a future Princess. He is currently stationed in Germany but plans on continuing his travels, collecting more tattoos along the way, meeting new people and enjoying new experiences. Check out his work on instagram @abstract_paint. Read full interview with Zach on modelsinkmag.com

She paints her face to hide her face. Her eyes are deep water. It is not for Geisha to want. It is not for Geisha to feel. Geisha is an artist of the floating world. She dances, she sings. She entertains you, whatever you want. The rest is shadows, the rest is secret. | 31
