 Here's Stefan's full interview

Stefan, welcome to Stunning Men and a big thank you for taking the time to do the interview. You are from the UK but currently live in Perth, Western Australia ...

Yes, I was born in North Wales and moved down to Southampton age 3, where I lived for 12 years before moving to Australia when I was 15 where I have been ever since.

First thing first ... how did you get into modelling?

I got asked on social media to give a photo shoot a go, so thought why not? It was a completely new thing for me but after seeing how the photos turned out, became more into it.

What do you think is the most fulfilling thing about modelling?

Showing my hard work.

How comfortable are you in showing off your physique in a shoot?

Pretty comfortable, I never had an issue taking my shirt off.

You are looking amazing. How on earth did you get into such shape?

Being strict with my diet and progressive overloading my training.

When did your passion for fitness start?

It started when I was 18 years old, had been out of high school for a year and wanted to put a little size on since I was a very skinny kid. I became hooked because of the progress and improvement.

What keeps you determined and driven to work out?

I have a goal physique in my head and I want to achieve it so that keeps me focused. But also my friends have similar goals as me so that helps because we don’t go out and drink but would rather go to the gym and make some personal bests.

What is your diet like?

My diet is all based around a consistent calorie intake with most of my calories being consumed around the time I train, I also like to use high GI foods after my workout like white potato.

If you had a cheat day, what would be your favourite food?

Mars Pods, I think I might be addicted to them so I stay far away from them.

Can you share your fitness regimen with us?

Monday: Chest/Biceps

Tuesday: Legs

Wednesday: Vertical Pull/Calves/Abs

Thursday: Rest

Friday: Shoulders/Triceps

Saturday: Horizontal Pull/Rear Delts

Sunday: Rest

And what’s the best form of cardio for you?

Interval training on a spin bike, I like the bike because it creates far less joint pressure than most other forms of cardio.

Now a few quick fun questions if we may? Do you think you are a good date?

As long as she likes Brown Rice, Chicken and broccoli for dinner, sure!

Your favourite song or piece of music to play while training or running?

My favourite song to train to is: Adept – Grow up Peter Pan; but I go between heavy metal, R&B and drum & bass.

Do you have any other passions besides fitness?

Wakeboarding, but only during the summer.

What can’t you live without?

My Car, Nissan Skyline R34.

Could you finish these two sentences for us? You wouldn’t know, but I’m very good at …

… Selling, I work in Retail selling men’s clothes and I think I’m pretty good at it.

Now ... I’m just not very good at …

… Drawing, I cannot draw a stick figure character to save my life.

One last question Stefan, what is your big dream?

The big dream is to have a physique to rival my idols like Steve Cook, Greg Plitt, and Aaron Curtis. All those guys have physiques, which I admire and strive to achieve. I don’t want to be the biggest or strongest but just to be as aesthetically pleasing as their physiques are.   

Stefan, it has been a real pleasure to interview you! Thank you for your time and for being such good sport. All the best for the future

Here's Jorge's full interview

Jorge, welcome to Stunning Men. It is a great pleasure to finally be able to feature you in our blog, as we have been huge fans for some time now.

Could we start off by talking a little bit about where you are from?

I am from Madrid, the capital of Spain, but I have a Russian background.

You have travelled in Europe quite a bit before settling down in Budapest; what did you enjoy the most?

I have not settled down yet. I am a nomad, I am the grandson of a Cossack and, as Russian poet Mayakovsky, who is also of Cossack dissent, said “I might be right or wrong, but I can’t settled down”. Even Budapest is just one stop of what I call the pilgrimage of my life. What I enjoy the most is being able to speak native languages and learn the culture of each place.

Your work has been admired by many for some years now. How did you become a photographer? Is that something you always wanted to do?

A famous old American photographer discovered me and told me I had a gift.

He taught me the rules and poses for male photography and became my Maestro.

What did you do before you worked as a photographer?

I dedicated all my life to Art and Culture. My day job is as an Art and Language teacher.

You have worked with many stunning models over the years. How do you manage to find such stunning guys over and over again?

I have an eye to recognise beauty and to select it from what I think is ugly. However the concept of beauty and aesthetic has changed over history and it is also subjective and relative. You can communicate with it or not. On the other hand I am the only one who has the courage to scout his own models in the street, sport events or recently in social networks and if I get a no as an answer, I keep going to the next one.

What do you look for in a model? What’s important for you?

I look first at the face, then at the body. Through the face and features, more precisely through the eyes I can view the soul. It is said that the eyes are the window to the soul, the light to the body, as the Bible says.
Other photographers are obsessed by hair, muscles, for me eyes are a way to the person’s world and that is why I always focus on the eyes.

What do you enjoy the most in photography?

The communication with the model. Every time a good model comes, it is a gift for the photographer. They present us with their presence and photography must always be an exchange, a brief but intense relationship, a kind of affair with the model. The best portraits as in Velázquez, happened when there was a big dose of empathy between model and painter, because they knew and trusted each other.

What is your favourite location for a shoot?

‘En plein air’ (outdoors), the impressionist way. The study of natural moving light outdoors but also an artistic interior. The most important is light and the artist’s skills to master it. A location with natural beautiful lighting is more important than the props or even the model. When I arrive in a new location I look at the sun or where light comes from. Light is the beauty.

If you weren’t a photographer, what would you be doing?

I am an artistic soul … what could I do? If you put me in an office, you kill me alive.

Do you have any role models?

Roman Dawidoff (Khodorov) marked a new era in my photography. He is the most photogenic model I have ever worked with and he was my first ¨Muse” and my Russian inspiration.

What do you do to have fun and relax? What are your interests and hobbies?

Travelling around the world and visiting many historical sites. For relaxing, my country house in the Sierra in Spain, which I call my “hermitage”.

What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?

Maybe leaving my safe and decent job in Brussels to live the Slavic adventure to “terra incognita¨Pacific, soulin my mountain gh I think I need another life for that ook country house in Spain  which I call my Ermitage.s ,it i

What kind of music do you listen to?

Classical music. The Russians ... but now because I live in Hungary I rediscover Liszt with his Rhapsodies, but also Kodaly.

Where do you see yourselves and what would you like to be doing in let’s say 10 years’ time?

Still visiting Mother Russia and master the language and literature, though I think I need another life for that! But as a counterpart and relaxing in my mountain house.

Finally, what three words describe you best?

Enthusiasm, mysticism and freedom.

Jorge, thank you so much for taking part to this interview and for being such good sports. It was fun and a real pleasure to talk with you. All the best for the future and we are really looking forward to seeing new work from you.
