The Gentlemen of Marlen Boro: Lyle

The Gentlemen of Marlen Boro
-Lyle-



-Reshaping Perception-

Reshaping oneself can take on many forms. For 20 year old Lyle, keeping in shape is both a passion and a job. 'Modeling is a lot of fun and forces me to keep myself in shape which is a big plus!' The Minneapolis student's favorite activities include weight lifting, running, swimming, yoga, karate, football, and lacrosse. Lyle feels modeling is the perfect way to show off all the hard work he puts into keeping fit.

Reshaping oneself is not only about the body, it is about the mind, how you see yourself and how you are seen by others. Lyle has a great look, blond, blue eyes, cute face and great body. In his modeling work however, Lyle strives to alter initial perceptions by trying new things, working in a varitey of ways to achieve unique and different looks. Creating and Reshaping was a theme in Lyle's work with Marlen Boro.



'Working with Marlen is a blast because he knows what he is doing, but he is not afraid to experiment either. After shooting I would look over at Marlen and he would have a childish grin on his face looking through the pictures and I just knew from his reaction we had some great shots. He is a very respectful and fun guy I really hope to work with him again and I would definitely recommend him as a photographer!'

'Lyle is stunning. The first shoot, he trusted me to incorporate his lacrosse gear in a way that respected his nudity boundaries, but also allowed us to create some truly stunning and sexy images. That day I was really struck by his look. A sort of throwback to the 50s - and told him that he reminded me of the good kid on the football team where the coach would say, "I expected this from everybody else, but you too Lyle..." Which led to a kooky idea about having that All-American boy secretly play in girly panties. I almost didn't mention it - but Lyle was game - and actually excited about the idea. Crazier still, Lyle's girlfriend was too!'

I would definitely say Lyle and Marlen's collaboration certainly altered my initial perception. It is difficult to imagine the model in the first shot in this post is the same model in the last one. Thanks as always to Marlen Boro and to Lyle for sharing the results of their work together.
