Ivan Salas by Pablo Solano
As stated in my post above, many of the photographers I was researching when profiling Model Pablo Solano were women. Another theme that jumped out was how many models, both male and female, from the region were also photographers. Although many models have turned to photography, in Costa Rica it appears to be the norm.
Pablo's work as a photographer is much like his work as a model. His taste leans toward vintage, pin-up and retro. Some of my favorite shots were of model Ivan Salas. 22 year old Ivan, who is with Selley models in Costa Rica is new to modeling and is hoping to work with different photographers to build his portfolio.
