KJ Apa, Men’s Health Magazine

Back in February of this year we went to Lighthouse Park in West Vancouver with rock musician and actor KJ Apas. I was wearing two coats, gloves and a toque. The rest of the crew was in similar attire. Not so much for KJ. The biting wind picked up and it started snowing. In between takes KJ was shivering and turning a bit blue. But as soon as we were a go and the camera raised he shut everything out and was truly a professional. Thanks to everyone who worked hard to pull this all together. @jwintsphoto for the incredible assist and helping pull it all together, @win_liu Grooming and Hair, @Nicolesjostedt styling, both with @lizbellagency, assigning editor and all around cool person @scott.hendo and beautiful work by creative director @jasonminilee.
