This week's model was born in Sao Paulo, Brazil on June 13, 1985. In 2002, he won the Ford Brazil Model Search with Liliane Ferrarezi. He was only 17! Rafael has enjoyed a long and successful modeling career from that point.

Rafael Lazzini currently works with Ford Models (NYC & Brazil), Elite (Milan), Louisa Models (Germany), Success (Paris), Traffic Models (Spain), and IMM (Brussels). In addition to his extensive runway experience he is widely sought after for commercial work. His website has tons and tons of great pictures available of the many campaigns he's worked on.

And for those of you who love details, Rafael is 6'2" and weighs in at 176 pounds. He's got brown hair - just like me - and gorgeous green eyes.

As a special treat to all of you I've included a video of one of Rafael's photo shoots... Enjoy!
