"God is a huge inspiration in my career. I put Him first and foremost in all that I do. My goal of being a model is my main inspiration. Without the desire to be a successful model, it would only end up as being "Just A Dream" and I would never end up doing it. My uncle in Kiev, Ukraine is also a source of inspiration for me, he made me realize the importance of working harder in order to attain a better and successful life."

"I am a new model and this is the beginning of my modeling career. I personally feel photographers have been the first ones to see my full potential as a model and have helped mold my career into what it is today."
Avery Photography
"Working with Del Avery of Avery Photography who was the first photographer to see the potentials in me and who also helped me launch my modeling career. I'll forever be thankful to God and him for pushing me towards my goal of being a successful model."

"On the outside I deal with rejections in a professional manner. But I'm also human and like anyone else it hurts on the inside, but I'm also a big believer in what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I've learned to take rejection and make something positive out of it. I know out of 10 people 9 will like you and there's the one that won't but you have to keep pressing towards your goal, no matter what your goal or dream is."
Avery Photography
"My style is whatever the client or photographer can see within my potentials. I personally am more into the vintage/rocker/urban look that's going on today ala "Ed Hardy"
Avery Photography
"Best thing about being a model? meeting new people, working with photographers, modeling some sweet clothes and being able to see my hard work pay off."
Avery Photography
"Photographers have the " ARTISTIC EYE" for what they want they want from the model...LOL..So I've learned as a model to give the photographers what they're looking for in order to fulfill the themes and goals of the shoot"
Avery Photography
"What I like to do for Fun? Hang out with friends, going out and just have a wonderful good time!"
Avery Photography
His gym inspirations? "One of my ex girlfriends is the reason I started working out a lot. I took all the anger out in the gym...ha ha!!! What you see today is the result of her, hard work and fitness." Five things he can't live without? "God, my family, friends, the gym, bmw and I'll sneak a 6th one, my cell phone." Dmitriy never really planned on venturing into modeling. He's really a very humble guy who at first thought that he doesn't have the potential to become a model, but his friends and other people's opinions changed all of that. "My family and friends encouraged me, some even pushed me to really consider seriously embarking into the field of modeling. To be honest, not long ago, I was that person who's looking at that mirror and asking himself whether modeling is for him. But I took the step. I made the decision, and I'm loving every moments of it! For new models, believe in yourself, pursue your dreams, no matter what the outcome would be, what really counts is that you fulfilled your goals and reached for your dreams."
