Whether she’s advocating for animal rights or representing brands such as stella mccartney and calvin klein jeans, this rising model has a message.
Bruce Weber has shot some of the most iconic images of legends like Yoko Ono, David Bowie, and Naomi Campbell, but few can say that the renowned photographer helped launch their careers. This is an honor reserved for the likes of Kenya Kinski-Jones.
When she was a teenager, her mom, actress Nastassja Kinski, organized a mother-daughter shoot with Weber in Santa Monica. In between setups, he turned the camera on Kenya and the two began shooting “just for fun.” A couple of months later, he recruited her for an editorial in Vogue Espana. “At that age, you’re kind of awkward and shy,” the now-23-year-old explains as we take a seat at a tiny cafe in SoHo, Manhattan.
“But that experience sparked a real interest. I’m so grateful; it changed everything for me.”
