►WHAT MADE YOU WANT TO DO THIS SHOOT?
Being closeted and overweight as a kid really had an impact on my selfconfidence. I learnt how to hide myself in the crowd so I would never put my gayness or fatness on display. This worked for a long time but I became introverted and quiet. It has only been in the past few years that I have regained my confidence. I used to hate doing PE at school and found excuses to skip it. Now I get up early up on Saturdays to go rowing.
