Ram Boneh and Ryan Bertroche of Re:Quest Model are lensed by photographer Samuel Zakuto in the American heartland of Iowa for Hercules Universal, a newly launched site by Spanish magazine, Hercules.
The editorial shoot basically depicts the models going about their daily activities in what appears to be an Iowa farmhouse. While some captures from the Ram Boneh & Ryan Bertroche for Hercules Universal pictorial feature the rifle-equipped and shirtless duo hunting under the scorching hot sun, others see them in a pair of Wrangler leather jackets and outdoor hooded shirts. Some shots feature the hunky duo inspecting a horse, loading the bike onto a pickup truck, and after a long hard day of work deciding to take a walk around the neighborhood.
