Photography Daan Dam
Almost four years ago the Japanese native Yosuke Kaneshiro made his move to the big B, Berlin that is. The somewhat androgynous 27 year old model started his modeling career at the non conventional age of 24 and now has made it his full time occupation with no surprise as his look oozes with cool. Since setting eyes on Kaneshiro as we spotted his face while shopping at Berlin’s Voo Store, we’ve been yearning to get to know the guy better…
