Hi everyone! I'm Russell. I was born in Stratford, NJ April 10th 1981, and raised in Atlanta GA. I'm a web designer full time right now, as well as an aspiring model.

I am 6'3 185 lbs, blonde hair, green or blue eyes (depending on light). I have one brother who is 19 right now and in the army stationed in Texas as well as one sister who is 15 and currently attending Merritt Island High School (touch her and die).

During the first few years in highschool I was pretty much a dork who wasn't impressed with being one of the popular guys. I hit 6'2 at an early age of 15 but the weight was at in the 130ish range. I took up weight lifting my freshman year in highschool and kept with it till my senior year in which I gained most of my bulk.

After Highschool I got in to framing houses up in North Georgia with a great framing crew and built houses for 2 years while attending tech school and getting my macromedia certifications. I worked with that specific crew for 2 years and enjoyed every bit of it. That was actually the first job I ever really enjoyed doing, and the co-workers I worked with.

Afterward, I started my own business working at home and then 9-11 hit.....*uhg*. I packed my bags a month later and moved to Florida where a few photographers noticed, and wanted to shoot me. I didn't take it seriously until this one photographer kept asking me for a week to do a shoot.

Posting a couple of my photos on the internet, I got a lot of positive feedback. So much in fact, I receieved more offers from photographers, agencies and jobs. I'm not at all conceited, I guess because I grew up as a dork. I dislike being looked at as an image, but more personality than anything else. Shame the world works on looks.
