What really makes the imagery pop, however, is the juxtaposition of the vibrant rainbow blend Crawford rocks with his icy, stoic glare and bloody tears. With a perfect blending of color, emotion, and flowers, how could you go wrong?

It was in this spirit that we photographed models Agusta, Sam, Tash, Cait, Alva, Kinjhi, and Danielle (pictured above), and gave them a small set of questions to answer by hand—questions not only every model certainly must consider while under the cold gaze of the camera lens, but what every modern woman, man, and non-binary internally asks herself, himself, and themself.
