Willem Rylaarsdam

Based in Los Angeles, CA, Willem is a 6'1" athletic male model with a natural, effortless look that moves seamlessly between fashion, lifestyle, and athletic campaigns. With striking brown eyes, freckles, a cleft chin, and full lips, he carries a distinct, camera-ready presence that brands in the outdoor, streetwear, and active lifestyle space are drawn to. A decorated multi-sport athlete, Willem competed at the Junior Olympic level and has excelled in water polo, competitive rowing, swimming, and baseball — giving him an authentic edge in athletic and performance-driven campaigns. His passion for the outdoors extends off the field to hiking, backpacking, and bouldering, making him a natural fit for outdoor and adventure brand storytelling. Willem's personal aesthetic — clean, coastal, and effortlessly cool — translates directly on camera. He embodies the Hollister/Abercrombie generation of style: relaxed, confident, and approachable with a streetwear sensibility that resonates with today's digital and print advertising audiences. Eager to bring his athletic background and natural charisma to fashion editorials, brand campaigns, social media content, and lifestyle shoots, Willem is coachable, professional, and ready to take direction on set. Available for digital and print advertising, brand partnerships, UGC, and social campaign opportunities.
