Gigi Hadid Photographs Boyfriend Zayn Malik for Versace
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Zayn Malik is starring in an ad campaign photographed by his girlfriend, Gigi Hadid.
The former One Direction singer is in the spring summer campaign for Versace's Versus line. The photoshoot took place at the Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles. Model Adwoa Aboah also appears in the campaign.
Malik says being photographed by Hadid for the shoot made it "extra special."
Malik's representative says the campaign images will be used both on social media and in print.
Hadid explained to WWD that her love for photography came from her mother.
Well, my mom photographed us our whole life — I guess that’s why we’re so comfortable in front of the camera. We loved cameras, we could always play with her cameras and she was very welcoming to teach us, and let us play with them. So that was amazing, and then as we got older, photography’s always been something that I can kind of do to take my mind off it and get to a creative place, which is why it’s so nice to be able to do this during fashion month — because if I can have a day in between two crazy days of shows to just be creative, I feel like I kind of have a mini vacation from it. And I guess that’s kind of what it was like when I was a kid. We were really competitive horseback riders, and so in between our classes or competition, I would just take my camera and shoot my friends and their horses. Then I started selling 8-by-10 prints, I had HadidPhotography.com that I built on this web site-building web site. And I, like, sold my photos of my friends’ horses.
