There are many ways men are viewed as attractive. Whether they're playful, thoughtful, intimate, personal, carnal or epic, there's always something for you to connect with. This volume provides shared moments that transfer across the page and touches the viewer.

 

Description:

 

Built for Pleasure Vol.2 was a project I began a number of years ago. My friends and I affectionately refer to it as "The time before."  I had just finished the kick-off shoot and suddenly the world stopped. It was quite some time before I could resume shooting again and the world around us had changed so much because of it. 

 

 As always, my focus during the photo sessions was capturing each model being them self.  When it came to clothing, I asked them to choose the things they liked or felt sexy wearing.  Many times this would involve a change into something more adventurous or playful.  My intention was to capture specific moments which would establish a connection between the model and the viewer. Sometimes it would be an everyday activity or personal interest. Other times it would be a personal fetish or fantasy. The book is broken into five unique chapters which represent some of the most desirable moments we view men.   I started with a diverse group of men and realized that I wanted even more diversity as the project progressed. I guess that's what keeps me driving onward. Having the opportunity to give a person their day in the sun and see them shine.  After all. pleasure comes in many forms and the men in this volume express it with ease.  I hope you enjoy them and the moments they have shared.
