The photographer (my current agent) saw me, and his eyes followed me all the way till I was out of sight; I occasionally looked towards them, pondering whether the photographer was part of the team at Chadwick Models (the agency across the road from where they were). Once I arrived home, I decided to finally pull the trigger and apply to be a model. I called the agency and was told I would have to send some photos via email, which is the standard procedure. I sent through the photos, and a few hours later, I was sitting in the agency with a contract in my hands.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Hall<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-73522 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Hall Hermawan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan03.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-73534\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-73534'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Hall Hermawan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan04.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Hall Hermawan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan04.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-73533\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-73533'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Hall Hermawan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan05.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Hall Hermawan\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2025\/01\/mdcselects_hallhermawan05.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-73532\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-73532'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Hall Hermawan\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/models\/hall-hermawan\">Hall Hermawan<\/a> (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/hall_hermawan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@hall_hermawan<\/a>) \u2014 187 cm \/ 6&#8217;1.5&#8243; \u2014 American\/Indonesian from Portland, Oregon, USA \u2014 born February 25th \u2014 he\/him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/q6-model--artist\">Q6 Model &#038; Artist (Portland &#8211; mother agency)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 One thing people may be surprised to find out about you:<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of my favorite hobbies is lockpicking and learning about locks in general.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What&#8217;s the scariest thing you&#8217;ve ever done?<\/strong><br \/>\nMy dad and I took a private, three-day-long adventure on a wooden boat upriver in the Indonesian rainforest of Kalimantan, searching for the endangered orangutans living in the treetops.
