Some women have a charisma the camera captures like a ghost, something we talk about but never quite see.

IT IS there. A presence. A feeling, perhaps even an attitude. Whatever that certain something is, Lezhan has it: it envelops her like an aura and you know from the faint curve of her cupid lips to the seductive look in her bright eyes that she is destined for great things.

Born in a small community close to Cape Town in South Africa, constant traveling and success in the modeling business has forced her to quit school and study in her spare time at home, not that she has a lot of spare time with her regular work out sessions and growing number of modeling engagements.

South Africa is ultra-conservative, but like the new young models from the Ukraine, Lezhan has a modern, liberated attitude to nudity and sees a career in nude and fashion modeling as running opportunely side by side.
