Advanced Anatomy: Drew by TCorrigan


' Drew caught my attention on MM and I was impressed by his slim, muscular build. His physique is an excellent study for anyone who enjoys the male anatomy.'


For some reason, I was struck with photographer TCorrigan's use of the work anatomy.  Given that anatomy is basically the study of the structure of the human body, it's the perfect word to use.  FH is focused on the male anatomy, yet it's a adjective I rarely used, nor one many artists and models use to describe their work.    


On one hand, anatomy comes across as more sterile and clinical than words such aas 'form' or 'body' that are often more widely used to describe a model..  On the other hand, it's also beautifully specific, especially when described the advanced anatomy of a model like Drew Bacchae.  There's absolutely nothing sterile or clinical about Drew's anatomy, nor the intensely sensual way that he utilizes his structure.


FH readers have previously enjoyed studying Drew's advanced anatomy. I featured the California based model's work several times over the past few years. (HERE:) I'm always struck by his beauty.  It's not just his face and body but his incredible skill with pose and interacting with the camera.  TCorrigan enjoys the challenge of assisting models to look relaxed and sensual in front of his camera, and with Drew's experience, that task was made much easier.


'Our photo shoot was both fun and productive. Drew took direction well and was willing to work with props like the bow & arrow and the motorcycle, each of which emphasized his amazing muscles.' 


I have been hoping to share  more of TCorrigan's work since first featuring his work with JayCee a few years ago. (HERE:)  I loved the photographers series with JayCee, especially the range of looks of emotions that was captured during the shoot.   TCorrigan tries when possible to shoot both in studio and on location when possible to create a variety of looks and capture the model from different perspectives.   As you can see, he was able also to do this with Drew, and I love the contrast between the studio shoots, and the series outside by the pool.


TCorrigan always pays special attention to capture sharp, focused imagery and as you can see from both locations, he captured tantalizing details in both settings.  There are subtle difference in mood in each with Drew looking very focused and series in the studio images.  In the shots by the pool, under the warm California sun, Drew appears more relaxed and care free, just as one would if hanging out in the pool.   Between the pandemic and the wild fires, TCorrigan hasn't had as many opportunities this past year to shoot under that California sun, but here's hoping 2021 brings more anatomy studies both  in the studio and by the pool.
