Rugby star turned model Thom Evans is marvelously captured by photographer Daniel Jaems in this superb shoot for FTAPE.COM’s ‘Obsession’ series which celebrates masculinity.

Evans is also training as a sprinter and hopes to compete in the next Olympics. FTAPE shot him because of his amazing story, his tragic departure from professional rugby (due to hisaccident on the field that nearly left him paralyzed). His desire to compete professionally again and the conditioning, he has put his body though (for racing) has given him the perfect body for Modeling.
