While I was in Malta this past week I visited the Dingli cliffs, where I ran into this guy, who goes by "John". He sells snacks and soda, as well as fresh fruits and vegetables from his garden to passerby's and anyone stopping to visit St. Magdalen's Chapel. He has supposedly claimed this spot for as long as he can remember, perched at over 750ft on the cliffs outside of Dingli overlooking the Mediterranean. My contact Louise, who I was working on a project with there, made small talk with him and bought some of his oranges, which absolutely ruled.I'll be posting more about the journey and the work I did in Malta over the next few months. Thanks for reading!

I traveled to Istanbul and the far eastern part of Turkey last month with my good friend Nick (my friend Gee from Brussels was with us for part of it as well) and have some incredible stories from it to share. Too bad they're much harder and lengthier to explain over the internet and there are way too many photos than could possibly be shown in one post. To be honest, I ended up choosing about 40 images from the entire trip (a process that was as painful as it was time consuming) to at least introduce the underlying stories, but not sure if I nailed the goal of being "selective".
You be the judge, hopefully this gives at least some notion of how incredible and unique a trip it was.
Yup yup, great way to start off my morning. Some awesome Images. Can't wait to hear the stories behind them!
This looks like an unbelievable trip, I hope i can make a trip like this some day with some friends. Love the picture of the kid on the bike, looks like you captured the lifestyle and culture!

My second test shoot for JOY Models Istanbul was with Anastasia. She was recently in a couple editorials which ran in Harper's BAZAAR Istanbul as well as Vogue, and she's only 16. Her eastern-euro look coupled with some Americana styling was fun to play with, and we had a great time shooting in the evening sun.Check out more from the test in a complete story on my website: http://cargocollective.com/collinhughes#1924816/Anastasia
How do you go about setting up test shoots with agency represented models?
