Oliver D

Oliver, 18, lives in a village about an hour southeast of Bratislava. He dropped out of high school at 16 and is currently unemployed while looking for work. He played European football until his early teens and, more recently, has been training regularly in boxing. He has done a bit of traveling, visiting Egypt, Türkiye, Bulgaria, and Croatia, and his dream destinations for the future are Spain and the USA.

We met a year ago in Oliver’s hometown when I was visiting our mutual friend, Ivo. From the start, Oliver was very sweet and friendly, showing a genuine interest in doing one of my photoshoots. I reassured him that I’d be happy to photograph him once he turned 18. Time flies, and here we are nearly a year later, doing the photoshoot on his birthday. Over the past year, Oliver has made great progress slimming down and toning his body thanks to boxing. He now plans to build more muscle mass.

Since we already knew each other, and thanks to Oliver’s lovable personality, we felt exceptionally comfortable and had a great time during the photoshoot. The cake and balloons put a big smile on his face, and he told me I made the best sandwich he’d ever eaten.
