Private Commission with Mario and Fernando - Mexico City

I'm always available for bookings to do private commissions.  Here's a sample of the type of work I do with couples.

Viva La Revolucion!

 

Because of my model, Mauricio Rossi, being friends with the owner and manager of La Revolucion Sportsbar in Puerto Vallarta, we ended up doing a subsequent shoot the day after our calendar shoot.  

We shot at the actual restaurant/bar and also enlisted one of the waitresses, Fabiola, who was stunning.  

The shoot was envisioned to be a traditional take on the Mexican way of life -- hot sexy boy/hot sexy girl and booze.  I guess when you think about it, it's actually quite a universal axiom.  Anyhow, it was a quick and fun session which I imagine the owners Luis and Antonio will use the images on Facebook and other social media sites.  

If I was creaitng the ad, it would read:

Viva La Revolucion ... where the drinks are ice cold and the crowd is sizzling hot!

Jon & PJ, Stanley Park, August 2012

Spent part of the day editing photos I shot this past summer.  Jon and PJ are always wonderful to work with, either solo or together, their images are always captivating and incredibly sensual.  Here are a few of the standouts that I worked on today.

Photo shoot with Hugo, Wreck Beach, Vancouver

I've had the pleasure of working with Hugo before -- we did a shoot several years back in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, but as the years go by, this man continues to get hotter, sexier and sweeter.  So of course, I was delighted to schedule another shoot with him, now that we both live in the same city.  We decided to shoot at Wreck Beach, it was my first visit to the infamous location, and the results exceeded my expectations.  I will definitely be back to do more shoots as there are so many possible locations and I also hope Hugo and I will continue to work together.  Here are a couple of the shots of a wonderful model in a wonderful setting.

 

 

Photo shoot with Jay - Stanley Park

The Gay Unicorn!

In honor of Pride here in Vancouver, I give you an absolutely priceless image -- a rare sighting of one of this world's most exotic creatures; the gay unicorn! 

How do I know this unicorn is gay?

Success and Failure at the 2012 Seattle Erotic Arts Festival

I am very happy to report that my "Buck Angel" framed print from the Seattle Erotic Arts Festival has sold. The "(s)he's perfect" is still available. If you are interested in purchasing it or an unframed 8X10, please leave a comment or message and I'll get back to you. 

I'm also disappointed to report that none of my unframed 8X10 prints, which were selected for the Festival Store, managed to reach their final destination. I'm waiting for the organizers to locate them (the prints were received with the framed works).  In the meantime, I am happy to take any orders for those images at the reduced price of $100,  since I have lost out on those sales at the Festival.

Here are the four images that are available:
