Thomas Hassler by David Urbanke
Teen photographer David Urbanke was born and raised in New Jersey, currently living in the small town of Berkeley Heights. In mid 2007, he picked up his first digital camera and started taking photos of a Blythe doll. After experimenting for awhile, when he got to high school, he realized what he was interested in was taking photos of human subjects. Taking photos of girls he was friends with, he slowly turned these girls into his regular models and began taking pictures every week. Posting his work on the popular photo website Flickr, David Urbanke picked up an interest of followers, and soon enough, found himself in the middle of the fashion industry shooting professional models. Now at the age of sixteen years old, he has been shooting for top agencies such as Ford, Next, Elite, Wilhelmina, Trump, Major, and more.
