5 - 29 - 18  Hot, hot day today and cool to photograph Eugene in his Brooklyn apartment, he's 28 years of age.  I met him on Fifth Avenue and asked if I could photograph him.  He looked dynamite, wearing a super, bad-ass hat and glad that he obliged.  I emailed him the photos and asked if I could photograph him nude and he said "yes".  He's a musician and plays a gig with his bandmates on the weekends as the houseband on West 52nd Street.  Skilled and accomplished, very creative, open-minded and super fly cool.  He has a sculptured body and not an ounce out of place.  Cool, handsome and smart. 

5 - 5 - 18  Photographed Tyrone in midtown studio today.  He's 25 yrs. of age, lives in Brooklyn and works in NYC, where I met him during his lunchtime and snapped a few pixs of him, since he looked very cool, creative and open-minded.   He immediately impressed me with being soft-spoken and I knew that I would like to photograph him.  Emailing him the street-style photos that I took of him, I inquired if he would be interested in being photographed nude and responded "yes".  Looking forward to doing today and did interesting photos of him.  He's very spiritual, into art and is definitely arty himself, always seeking inspirational experiences.  A super, nice guy, respectful and kind. 

4 - 24 - 18  Went to Brooklyn today to photograph Ray in his apartment, which was remodeled by him.  Very creative and beautiful work that he did.  He's exceptionally spiritual and immediately one can feel his warmth and kindness.  He has a dog that he has a close bond with that is very loving and special.
He went to his neighborhood gym before my arrival, where he works out a few times a week and it definitely shows.  A cut body, good abs and eats healthy, too. He had coconut rice in a slow cooker and in another, had a selection of vegetables, which he offered to me, but I choose the ice-cold water with lemon.  Very refreshing.  Enjoyed our conversation and of course, photographing him.  A very wonderful person.

4 - 17 - 18  Went to Brooklyn to photograph Brandon, whose interest and passion is acting.  He's 25 yrs. of age and is from the midwest.  Has been here for three years to pursue his dream and goals.
Always hearing and reading about NYC, he knew it was the place for him and loves it.  Brandon is creative, disciplined, open-minded and cool.  Very easy to photograph in available light and followed my suggestions.  He's a warm person, with a warm heart.

1 - 27 - 18  Went to Coney Island in Brooklyn to photograph Anthony.  I met him on Fifth Avenue in NYC, outside the Urban Outfitters store, where I did a few snapshots of him and asked, if I can photograph him again and would send him an email.  I did and mentioned that I would like to photograph him nude and he replied back, "yes".  A gentleman of a guy, very cool and comfortable with his body, plus a very sharp dresser, too.  He's in his 40's, but looks much younger, super, great personality and a beautiful smile.

10 - 1 - 17  Photographed, Jermaine today who was cool about being photographed outdoors in midtown.  He's 21 years of age, lives in the Bronx, born in Jamaica, moved to Florida as a child and has spent time living in Germany, when his older brother was in the service.  He's now here to have new experiences, go to college and pursue his love of writing.  Very creative and articulate and is into all the arts.  Open-minded, determined, individualistic and challenges will drive him to reach his goals in life.

9 - 11 -17  Went to Brooklyn to photograph Rachmann, who is 31 years of age and is originally from Uganda.  He is married to a Japanese/American woman, who he met in Uganda when she was there doing volunteer work.  Fascinating, interesting guy and surely an interesting couple.  He is open-minded and cool with nudity and has travelled to other parts in the world.  Nice looking guy, who is fit and can tell that he works out.  I photographed him in available light, which I always prefer and brought along a part of a fern plant that had dried out to use in his photographs, as an added element. Very respectful, super nice guy with a beautiful, perfect smile.
