5 - 3 - 19  Photographed Andre, he's 24 yrs. of age, today in his Bronx apartment.  Took the subway to Burnside Avenue, then walked a few blocks to his place.  He's into music and his community, helps a lot of people in the neighborhood.  A hip, creative guy. cool dude.

5 - 1 - 19  Photographed Jay today in his Bronx apartment, who is 41 yrs. of age. Took the subway to 149th St. & Third Avenue, then a bus, a long ways away, but well worth the trip to photograph him, since he is heavier than other guys I have been photographing.  I like to see the difference in body types and show that we are all beautiful and special, the inside is more important that our other shells.  He is very comfortable in his skin and has done nude hot yoga with lots of other people around.  He has been heavier and now is a vegan, has completely cut out meat and lost lots of weight.
Saw workout equipment in his place that shows he is on the road to losing more.  Positive outlook in life and looked forward to having this as an experience that he wanted to check off.  Wonderful guy, enjoyed meeting him, talking to him on the phone and of course, photographing him.
