The Unknown: Matt by Unlimited Male

'It’s the unknown that draws people.'

E.A. Bucchianeri

When Playgirl Magazine was published on a monthly basis, one of the most popular regular features was the 'Playgirl'Discovery'.  An undiscovered model, never seen before, with little to no experience posing nude for the camera.   Although the models were often young, it really wasn't about age as much as it was about their experience, or lack thereof.  Readers loved seeing ,and reading about, a 'new find'.  An inexperienced amateur model the magazine discovered and uncovered for the very first time.

I love featuring unknown models, regardless of their age.  Whether 19, 20 or 60, I love hearing their stories.  Given their undiscovered, most tend, like Matt, to be younger, but I've featured many models who decided to take it all off much later in life.   North Americans are for the most part obsessed with the young.  Maybe more specifically though, we're obsessed with the new. 

All of our senses, but maybe especially our eyes, react more intensely to things we haven't seen before.  There's nothing more powerful than experiencing something new and exhilarating for the very first time. There's an anticipation and excitement connected to a first shoot, especially if it's a nude one.  The experience of discovery, for both the model and the viewer, are for a brief moment, insync.



I don't know about you, but when I see images of a model's first nude shoot, I always look for signs.  Signs of nerves or fear, hints about their comfort level, and signs of confidence and courage. Although I now there is an audience for it, I'm always uncomfortable seeing a model whose poses and facial expressions are like a deer in the headlights.

That certainly wasn't the case in this series featuring Matt by Jay from Unlimited Male,  Jay has a talent finding and working with new models, and I've been fortunate to have been able to spotlight many of his breathtaking discoveries.

This was not only Matt's first nude shoot, but his professional shoot and Jay says he was a pleasure to work with.  Matt has a great body and face, highlighted by his beautiful eyes and great smile.One of the things Jay most loves about working with new models is seeing how they react to being in front of the camera for the fist time. For this first shoot, Jay reportsMatt was a natural.
