I am one of those people who believe everyone has a story. Some just have more chapters than others. But we all endure chapters in our lives that we could either let define us or simply teach us something as well as introduce us to our heroes; every story has a hero. "My kids are my heroes," the point of this story presents itself clearly. "They inspire me to live in the moment and to not be so depressed. Money can't buy you happiness; love can and my kids are living proof. I can't imagine life without my kids."

London based model Jana wants you creepy photographers to know she will be bringing a companion to the shoot. Too many times photographers take advantage of models whom show up to shoot doe-eyed and eager to please. Please don't expect her to pay for anything or alter her look for you. However, with that said, she is offers herself completely to the project as she is totally comfortable in front of the camera. You can catch her here on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4p-QJ8DT2RE and on Instagram: @so_jana.

"Vivo anche Grazie alla mia passione," which loosely translates to "I also live thanks to my passion" is the quote with which I am introduced to the angel now in my sights. The Bologna based model travels throughout Europe for photo-shoots and other modeling opportunities. I am of course hoping to have her cross the pond and create works of art here in the United States. You can see more of her on her Model Mayhem page. Hope you appreciate her beauty as much as I do.

Aurora and I's interactions are always genuine. This isn't our first time. I love what I do. She loves being who she is. So this works effortlessly. These days, she prefers to be called Helena and I am happy to oblige and to have her with us again. As I plan to watch Game of Thrones, I am sliding in her dm as we talk via Instagram. "Right now I just woke up and while I am thinking of my answers I'm applying makeup and brushing my hair for my webcam show today," she tells me, "also in the background I have a Netflix movie... multitasking." It's easy for me to picture the scene she describes, for at this moment she has my full attention.

Easily beauty comes to mind in regards to Canadian model and actress Drew Catherine. Originally from a quaint little town in North Toronto, Drew now travels the world working her curves, including that smile, earning a living doing what she loves. As a young girl struggling with body dysmorphia, modeling eventually showed her just how beautiful she was, teaching her that it's those little differences and insecurities that make a strong model and that there is beauty in everything. This sounds like something from the Angels Playpen bylaws. Welcome angel.

Heroes are sources of inspiration that come in many forms, play many roles and sometimes from an unexpected source. A professional acquaintance can become a hero to a recent graduate looking to enter a similar field, a family member who encouraged you to live out dreams or even a school teacher who motivated you to create the future you want. "I look up to anyone that follows their dreams and does not listen to doubters in life," offers the lovely Alexandria Irizarry. "They inspire me to keep going."

Dreams are important in ways most would not consider and shouldn’t be ignored. Dreams ought to be given more credit for the part that they play in the realization of so many of society’s greatest feats. Dreams rise from the depths of our subconscious, which is responsible for over 95% of our actions, with the knowledge of who we truly are, guiding us towards our ultimate self. Our angel, Houston’s own Shianne Bernae knows a lot about dreams as she lives out hers as a model. “I want to believe that if I dare to dream anything, it will happen,” declares our angel. “I’m going to always work hard and make my dreams come true."

A bit of a mystery surrounds this angel. This Russian beauty is a model of the highest regards, well-experienced and well-traveled. A model, actress, dancer, and makeup artist, Louise is literally a great body of talent. She is at the beginning of her acting career, has been modeling for the past five years and has for over ten.

That smile, though partly covered is warm and inspiring. It's the kind of smile you would expect an angel to have. The curve of her smile continues throughout her shapely frame. There is nothing more precious to me than seeing a happy, beautiful woman. A proud traveling model who enjoys encounters with all the people with varying backgrounds, characters, professions, and appearances. With a history in photography, Shawna found her way into modeling and now does it full time. Have a look at some of her work. You can see more on her website here.

Christina is Cambodian, German, Danish, Irish and Scottish, that all come together to create the beauty we are blessed to hold in our sights. As a model, she has worked the runway of course but also art and trade shows, workshops and various promotions.
