In this interview Peter tells us more about his magazine, which he creates all by himself.

1. Can you tell us something about yourself? ‘’My name is Peter van Poucke and I live in Belgium. I went to cooking school and I worked in the hospitality industry for 25 years. 15 years ago, I started photography as a hobby and I still love doing it.’’

2. When and why did you start Modellenland Magazine? ‘’I actually started the magazine 4 years ago as a joke. My photographs were published in many online magazines at the time and that is how I came up with the idea to create one myself. I invited some friends to be in the magazine and that is how the first issue arose. I didn’t expect it, but I received many submissions after the first issue. That is why I continued creating the Modellenland Magazine. Before I knew it, the magazine became international and now I already published 318 issues. Bear in mind that the magazine is a one-man operation :).’’

3. What is Modellenland Magazine about? ‘’Modellenland is something unique, it’s a stage for photographers and models and all artists that have something to do with fashion and music. It is a platform where I let artists speak by interviewing them. At the moment, people from 170 different countries read the magazine. People can download and read the magazine for free online.’’
