We were overjoyed when we heard we were partnering up with Naomi Campbell and Glamour Magazine for two of the most talked about Creative Invites we’ve hosted to date.  We received more than 8,000 submissions from models and photographers for the unprecedented opportunity to work alongside Naomi Campbell and Glamour Magazine. Following the first round of online voting from Talenthouse’s global community, Campbell and Elvin were presented with the top entries to make the final selection.

“The entries for the Talenthouse creative invite have been incredible. I had so much fun looking at the entries and it was really difficult to choose the winner from so many excellent entries,” said Campbell. “Miro Arva and Sabrina Rocha are both incredibly talented individuals. I’m very much looking forward to working with both of them.”

Jo Elvin, editor of Glamour Magazine, added, “The competition has been fun and we have been overwhelmed with the talent. We are delighted to be in partnership with both Naomi and Talenthouse and we are thrilled with the winners.”

After a two-month-long search, Talenthouse, Naomi Campbell and Glamour Magazine UK editor Jo Elvin are thrilled to announce the aspiring model and photographer selected for Talenthouse’s latest creative invite. Hailing from Slovakia, Miro Arva has been selected from thousands of entries as the winning photographer and Sabrina Rocha, 22 of Miami Beach, Florida as the top model.  As the winners, both Arva and Rocha will participate in a shoot with Naomi Campbell to be featured in Glamour Magazine’s August issue!!

Sabrina decided to embark on her modeling career after a summer abroad in Milan and has done everything in her power to make it happen.  She dropped her entire life to pursue her new passion and after being rejected a countless number of times, she is excited to have earned this opportunity with Naomi and Glamour — “I’m ecstatic! This opportunity with Naomi Campbell and Glamour is so unbelievably thrilling and wondrous! I feel super blessed and can’t wait to shoot the photos of my life!”

Miro is a self-taught photographer who was interested in fashion magazine spreads from an early age.  He studied business and tourism before deciding to pursue a career in photography, which he has been doing professionally for the last four years.  He specializes in beauty and fashion photography and completes all of the post production to his photographs as photography is his primary focus.  He dreams to work with top fashion brands and this may be his first-class ticket — “I am so grateful to be part of this and with such a positive result. I did not really expect that I could win and I am still shocked. I am sending a big thank you to all at Talenthouse. I am really looking forward to collaborating with all people involved.”

Congratulations to both of the winners, we feel honored to be a part of this life-changing opportunity you both have received!  We are also very grateful for all of the models and photographers who submitted for this Invite!! The passion you have for your creative outlets is a crucial reason why Talenthouse began in the first place and we hope to bring many more opportunities like this one to the table.
