September 6, 201410 yr Author Football to Fashion: Hutchins Becoming Top ModelBy Brad LockeDaily JournalSeptember 3, 2013 Football gave Heath Hutchins a fine career during his high school and college days. Last year it gave him something else, something quite unexpected. “Serendipity” is the word he uses to explain how tutoring a high school kicker led to a career as a fashion model for the likes of Ralph Lauren and Abercrombie & Fitch. It’s a job that’s taken Hutchins around the globe in a few months’ time, places like Amsterdam, England, Germany, Mexico and Spain.Those places are a long way from Saltillo, where Hutchins starred for the high school football team as a punter. He went on to play for Itawamba Community College and then Mississippi State.After failing to catch on in the NFL, Hutchins was trying to find some direction. He did some work as a personal trainer and had just caught on with a car dealership when fate intervened in the form of Hunter Bigham.Bigham’s son, Reed, kicks and punts for Tupelo High’s varsity squad. Wanting to help his son improve as a player, Bigham asked Hutchins to tutor Reed.Bigham has done some modeling for the past eight years or so. When a photographer friend, Cory Steirley, flew in to update his portfolio, he told Bigham to find someone else for him to take pictures of while he was in town.Bigham asked Hutchins, who was more than glad to help.“He came over to the house one afternoon, and Cory shot him, and it was pretty obvious from the very first flash of the strobe light that he had a natural affinity for this,” Bigham said. “When the first photos came through, we were like, dude, you have got to take these to somebody.”Hutchins admitted the most he’d hoped to get from the photo shoot was “a cool Facebook picture and maybe get some chicks to talk to me.” He got that, and more.After holding on to the pictures for a few weeks, Hutchins jumped on Google on a Wednesday last October and typed in “top 10 modeling agencies.” He submitted his photos, and the next day he received contracts. By the next Monday, he was in Mexico for his first shoot, for Fuller Cosmetics.Read the rest of the article HERE.
