JOHN MCCALLEN

John McCallen practically became the face of CFS for Spring of 2009. His work inside the organization (Truck, Pleasure, Pipelines, Celebrity, Womanizer, Monster, and many more...) as well as his work outside the organization (most notably the Green Hose photo by photography superstar Adam Bouska), have made John a recognized face all over the West Coast. His runway appearances are well-regarded and award-nominated, and his image while walking for aussieBum in CFS 2009 is iconic. Recently graduating from Stanford, and signing with an agency in San Francisco, John's modeling career remains bright.

ELISE BIRKHOFER

Elise is the embodiment of Charity Fashion Show. Her work is stunning. Whether the emotion of "Passion," the sensuality of "Truck," the character of "Celebrity," or the editorial appearance of "Assassins," Elise's print work with CFS is nothing short of astounding. Her runway photos include a finale shot for Edith Palm easily regarded as the best photo from the May 2nd show altogether. She has done extensive work to develop her portfolio outside the organization but remains completely committed to it. A Stanford Dollie, her schedule has proven utterly full, but that never stops Elise from being the definition of CFS: exquisite, dedicated, fierce, fabulous, and completely infatuating.
