'Stretched & Unstressed'
In the case of the incredibly sexy and flexible Zackary, you can also thankfully add 'stretched and undressed.' FH might remember my September' story featuring photographer Hal Cook's imagery of the equally sexy, and equally bendy Alec. (Window of Time) Some of you may recall I mentioned that Hal had sent on shoots from several different models and Zackary, well at least Zackary's photo was mentioned in Alex's piece.
'During the shoot, Alec not only shared his graceful flexibility, but also showed Hal a few images of his boyfriend Zackary. Hal later shot Zackary , and you can look for those images coming up soon!'
Ok, I admit, two months may not necessarily be considered soon, but I'm sure you'll agree that Hal's shots of Zackary were more than worth the wait. I'd be curious to see what pictures Alec had on his phone to show Hal. Back in the day, one pulled a photo of their boyfriend from their wallets to show others, but with everyone always having their phones on them, and Zackary being Alec's boyfriend, I'm doubting that Hal was shown just a smiling head shot...
I can see instantly why Hal wanted to connect and shoot with Zackary, his body is incredibly beautiful and I love the visual beauty and sensual intensity Zackary creates with the long lines and exquisite poses and positions with his elegant elongation.
Hal shares that he and Zackary I hit it off immediately. Zackary's now posed for Hal three times, including once with another male model. Hal describes both Zackary and Alec as amazing models, and I agree. I also couldn't help but wonder (well ok.. fantasize) how they best take advantage of their mutual flexibility when alone together...
Not all photographers utilize the architectural beauty the lines and curves the male form are capable of creating, but it's something I have been especially loving in so much of Hal's work. Many focus on specific body parts, ignoring the dynamic visuals possible when focused on the overall systemic beauty of the human body.
It would have been a crime to shoot Zackary and not creatively utilize his long lean form and his incredibly beautiful long legs. Zackary skillfully uses both pose, in addition to his neck, head and eye and facial expressions to created some dramatically beautiful looks that Hal so magnificently captured.
