everyone, meet lucky blue smith! he's like the love child of two of my all time idols - james dean & river phoenix. this gap & levis campaign boy just turned sixteen not too long ago. we flew him from la to san francisco for a shoot that i have been looking forward to for oh so long. i remember seeing his modelling pics back when he was 13 & dropping my jaw & his recent editorial work in popeye magazine just reinforced my wish to do a story with him big time! then it finally happened & this shoot still feels like a dear dear dream to me till this moment ...
