Lee has been under the curated development of our Future Faces board whilst completing his schooling, so we have watched him grow up in front of our eyes.  It has been incredible to see him grow from boyhood to a young man with the world at his feet, etching out his journey.

With parents who both hail from industry and own established businesses (Flash Photo and Location Gallery), Lee has ingrained in him an impressive business ethic and deep love for the fashion and commercial industries.  Lee knows that nothing worth having doesn't come without hard work, sacrifices and dedication.

As very proud agents, it has been exhilarating to facilitate Lee's coming-of-age first trip to Milan as a travelling, full-time model.
Travelling to one of the world's fashion capitals may sound glamorous, but there are always highs and lows that come with the adventure; so we asked Lee to share his experience with young and aspiring models by imparting 6 of his best tips for finding ones feet in Milan and travelling abroad in general.


1. Find a group of close friends asap!

They'll motivate you to explore different parts of the city, you'll find places you've never seen before through them and they know the best, most affordable spots regarding going out or eating out.



2. Be careful about what you spend your money on.

Yes, do your shopping. But, once that's out of the way make sure you budget and don't spend all your money on unnecessary things like fancy dinners, expensive and exclusive events, etc. Our South African Rands disappear quicker than you may think. Looking at your bank account weekly will certainly frighten you!



3. Have a routine.

Have a purpose to get up on the quieter days and make sure you are productive and active every day.



4. Don't wait for shoots to come. 

Find photographers or friends who know about certain castings or shoots that you can also join in on. Don't be scared to reach out to local or international photographers by starting with good conversation and ending it with a test shoot. If you are truly passionate about your work, then you will find good photographers who will love your test shoot ideas and will want to shoot them with you too.



5. Do all the touristy things!

The city's have so much to offer and some of the scenery, locations and events are just spectacular. You never know when you'll be back in the same city so make sure you get to see al the beauty of it before you leave. 



6. Lastly, make sure you know how to do all the necessary house work and chores. 

Familiarise yourself with cleaning, doing the dishes, ironing, vacuuming, etc. It's so easy to let go of yourself and turn your apartment in to a mess if you don't actively put in the work and clean daily. 


Keep shining Lee, the world is your oyster!

How does one capture love?

Cape Town based photographer Robin Jones captures the warmth and intimacy between Elli and Edwin’s love in this beautiful collection of photos.

Elli and Edwin met in Barcelona by chance whilst both on vacation. It was love at first sight for these two, as they became a couple the day they met.

“I never understood the saying… ‘when you know, you know’, until that day.” Elli says as she fondly recalls the memory.

“For this shoot, I can remember the day pretty well because we were freshly in love, and we couldn’t take our hands off one another. Having a long-distance relationship is not always fun, but when we saw each other after that long break, we were just so happy to be in each other’s arms again.”

As these two kindred spirits relish in one another’s presence, another question is posed to them: What do you love about each other?

“What I love about Edwin - he is honest, grown, loyal, loving, caring, protective, sensitive, and patient with me. He has such a beautiful soul and such a positive energy around him and the moment he smiles at me I´m gone. He makes me feel safe and I found home within him. Life feels so easy with him, and everything finally makes sense.

Edwin smiles, “Elli is a remarkable human being. Her smile is contagious and takes me to places I can’t explain. She is so selfless, kind and her love for family is unbelievable. She is my number one supporter and always motivates me to strive for greatness. I feel loved at any given moment and that is a priceless feeling.”

Introducing Future Face, Jack Mcleod.


Behind those brooding eyes and floppy curls, is a talented young man with a keen interest in graphic design, music and the pursuit of something more meaningful than a big Tik Tok following.

Get to know a bit more about him in our Q&A.



Q: How did you get scouted by ICE Models?



A: I submitted photos via the website along with my sister in 2020. We then received emails from ICE showing interest. I visited ICE Models Cape Town in 2021 for the first time to discuss possibly working with them one day, but while I completed my schooling in the Eastern Cape I had to be patient. I moved to Cape Town in early 2023 and signed with ICE. So far I have had some really great shoots and am learning so much about the industry and myself.



Q: Other than modelling, what other interests do you have?



A: My other interests include practicing mindfulness, I enjoy meditation, as well as gym and graphic design.  I study at the Red and Yellow Creative School of business.



Q: Favourite musician / band?



A: If I had to pick one favourite musician, it would probably be Fred Again, but I love so many different types of artists and music.



Q: Tell us something quirky about yourself?



A: I have quite an odd sense of humour and I find random things funny. There is definitely more to me than meets the eye.



Q: What is a dream campaign you would love to book one day?



A: My dream campaign would probably be to work with Nike, because I love their clothing, shoes and gear.
