So far, I just have a favorite shirt.”
Huston who’s one quarter Italian, is a big fan of the Italian heritage and lifestyle himself: “I love the food, culture and people in Italy. I spent six months filming there last year and my family all fell in love. I’d love to end up in Italy rather soon and call it home. It’s magical.”
Fulfilling his Mediterranean wanderlust desires, thanks to his quarter Italian Heritage, with Rome, Sicily, Palermo, Cala Grande ticked off his bucket list, he travelled to Italy in May to shoot the campaign with British photographer Tom Craig in a series of images that perfectly capture the Italian Lifestyle, reminiscing his experience at campaign photoshoot, Huston replied, ” I love it. Everyone was so great and gracious. Everyone made me feel comfortable and it was a fun experience and collaboration. And nothing felt forced. It felt easy. I’m confident and happy with how the images turned out.
