Matthew was a local student and bodybuilder in rural Virginia. His presence was so commanding that when showed up early for his shoot, we cut short our session with the day's other model to focus the cameras on him.

Last summer we spent a couple of hours in the studio with the Mexico City-based photographer, Eddie Garcia, and the French model, Thomas. The model charmed the photographers and the cameras loved his perfectly honed torso.

We set another winter record; it dropped to -2° in New York last night. My head is definitely staying on Fire Island where it's warm and sunny and full of even hotter men.

Javier first appeared before our cameras as a local student, curious and open to the experience. His strong features and athletic build made an immediate impression, and the session sparked a creative rapport that brought him back to the studio 2 more times.

Gabe popped into the studio on 2 of his trips from Brazil, each session revealing more of his disciplined, sculpted build. Off set, he honed a very different (almost contradictory) craft—working as a baker and chef.

Looks like Daniel on a bank of snow. . .appropriate for the frigid white January world outside. (Instead, we were in a drafty studio in a 150-year-old townhouse off the Bowery.)
