Amean J.: Hottie of the week

Who is he?

Dreamy eyes, click! Super sexy tousled hair, Click! Heartbreaking smile, Click! Make way for our desi version of McDreamy, Pakistan’s renowned fashion photographer, Amean J. A graduate of the Academy of Art, San Fransisco, Amean’s deep visualisation and stark images leave a lasting impact on the viewer — we reckon Amean himself makes an even longer-lasting impact! His work on projects like Karachiites and the anti-war video, Khuahish, has left us impressed, and his fashionable beard, urbane demeanour and mysteriously sexy looks make him one silver fox women of all ages are lusting after.


Why he is droolworthy

If you think he will melt your hearts with his charm and make you giggle endlessly with random jokes, you’re mistaken. As far as his personality goes, Amean is more Darcy than Bingley — courteous but reticent with this cool exterior complemented by crisp, business-like attire and those uber-cool glasses. Imagine falling under the spell of his swagger!

His responses to all our numerous attempts to draw him out were short, cryptic and maddeningly intriguing! While good images “turn him on”, music is what evokes Amean’s emotions  — so much so that he would have taken music up as a career choice if photography hadn’t superseded this passion. A real patriot, Amean draws his inspiration from news, politics and the culture of Pakistan. What brings out the energy in our Mr. Picture Perfect? Espresso shots  — we’d love to do coffee (and more) with him!

Amean says he likes simple things and has a minimalist approach to life and art. His definition of love? “It is something you can’t get tired of.” He’s making us feel a whole lot of it right now, because we can’t seem to get enough of him!

What you didn’t know about him

Asked about his ideal woman, the photographer responded: “I don’t believe in having someone ideal because I am not an ideal person myself.” We beg to differ, Amean!

His celebrity crush: Scarlett Johansson. He seems to be crushing hard on the smouldering hot and sensationally curvy star, but then isn’t everybody?
