April 2023 Update

Hi everyone, sad news today; both my current instagram pages have been deactivated without warning. It's been a constant struggle to keep this project alive amidst constant censorship online, but this is the largest blow I have ever been hit with. With no connection to my community, I will see my patronage drop drastically in the coming months, making this project difficult to fund.

Declan

Meet Declan, a 26-year-old mechanical engineer from Pennsylvania. He's a self-proclaimed geek and introvert, but also a secret OnlyFans star! When I first shot with him as a part of the Jock Quartet last year, I was enamored with his strawberry blonde hair, freckles, and coy infectious grin. I knew right away I needed to shoot with him again.

Over the past year I got to know Declan more a...

Last summer my boyfriend and I took a trip to San Francisco, our first time visiting the west coast. We of course visited the castro district and crossed the Golden Gate Bridge. But I also met up with a a longtime follower of mine for a photoshoot!

Meet Matthew, a sweet freckled boy from Oakland. He's a really talented actor who's appeared in a bunch of movies and tv shows, including Vero...

Snowy Lucas

Last winter Lucas visited my home in Connecticut for a new photoshoot. A stunningly handsome fitness guru and OnlyFans star, it was exciting to see all the progress he had made that year. We trekked through the snowy woods, a beautiful backdrop for Lucas to explore in the nude.

Art Collab with Scott Emmons

Today I share with you a sampling of my collaborative work with artist Scott Emmons. He and I have often worked together to curate/edit work, scout models, and create digital collages of my photography and his drawings. He has even hosted a few of my photoshoots at his Long Island studio, during which he collected inspiration for his drawings.

Matt Draws

Matt is a 22-year-old artist from NYC. When I discovered him on instagram, this concept immediately sprung to my mind: a boy living in a world of his own creation! I followed his daily routine, creating a portrait photo essay of Matt in his every day environments; central park, his favorite restaurant, his bed. Then I invited him to draw on my images with his tablet as we went, to showcase the ...

Mats

Meet Mats, a sweet 21-year-old marketing/business student from a small village in the Netherlands. I'm so honored that he flew to the United States for the first time just to shoot with me! He really wanted to see New York City, so of course we took photos on the Brooklyn Bridge. That night, we dressed him in a dreamy combo of posing pouch and hand-cut, shimmery gold bracelets and explored the ...

Vintage Inspiration Part 12

I love collecting and restoring vintage photos to use as inspiration for my shoots. I wish I could find the photographers of these photos and thank them for having the courage to take photos like these in a time when it was even less acceptable than it is now. There's something about vintage photos that has always inspired me. A raw, naturalistic look that isn't sought after anymore.

Jason

I met Jason in high school, before either of us knew we were gay. We reconnected in our early 20s and developed a new friendship online where we would confide in each other and share our art. Jason's a Jewish writer and filmmaker- notice his beautiful rainbow tatoo, the hebrew symbol for 'life'.  He's very connected with his cultural roots, recently writing and directing a short film about...

Lucas in Nature

Last year my boyfriend and I made a trip down to Pennsylvania to meet a shy, young artist for a new photoshoot. Lucas Angel is a stunningly handsome OnlyFans star with a quiet, secretive way about him. It was a pleasure to see him gain confidence and open up over the course of the shoot. The first location we visited was a massive park, complete with cliffs, waterfalls and rocks along a river. ...

Hugo

Hugo is a cute waiter from Long Island, New York. He grew up in South America, originally from Colombia. You probably recognize him from my first duo shoot, Andy & Hugo. As soon as we met, I knew I wanted to shoot an additional solo set with him. He was hesitant at first; I showed him my work with Santi and Lucas...

Jock Quartet Part 2

In January I was able to organize my first ever group shoot! Inspired by the early men’s physique photography of Bob Mizer, Herbert List, Bruce Bellas and Mel Roberts, I always wanted to see if I could bring my own spin to this vintage aesthetic in the modern day. The playful camaraderie and earnest voyeurism from this era is hard to match. That’s why I love collecting and restoring it so m...

Oil Painting Collaboration Part 2

Spanish Artist Alfonso Del Moral has painted more of my photos, this time of Dio and Ryan. I then used his paintings to edit and collage with my original photos. In my edits, Alfonso's strokes cover the nudity and perceived eroticism of my work, creating more of what I've been calling "censorship art". I love nude art that can push the boundaries of what is considered "acceptable" on public pla...
