'Not only charming and funny, Nicholas is also an awesome model. If he didn't live across the country, and about to move abroad, I'm sure I would have a new muse! He is truly a wonder in front of the camera'.
Full credit for today's cooling off theme goes to StudioMGphotography. After Mark sent on a few shots of Nicholas (@Nickwithmuscles) in the watermelon kiddie pool, I knew everyone would want to cool down a little with ultra-hot Nicholas. Prior to the shoot, Mark was trying to think of themes and concepts that would create images new and unique to Nicholas' portfolio.
The watermelon pool and toys were ordered and on the way when Mark found out that another photographer had already but Nicolas's hot body, in pool of cool water. Instead of scraping his plan, Mark focused on shooting him from above and creating shots different from the other shoot. Mark could have put him in the regular pool, but not only is Nicholas not that great a swimmer, it wouldn't have been nearly as much fun!
'The whole Kiddy Pool theme was the smallest part of our 2 days of shooting and 5 locations. It was a bit of a throw away concept since our goal was just fun and goofy. We had spent most of the day hiking and shooting, and were just back at the house for 90 minutes so he could pack, then we'd stop at the gym on the way to dropping him at the airport. We squeezed the kiddy pool in though!! And he looked darn hot while cooling off! '
Nicholas's hot look reminded Mark a bit of actor Henry Cavill. Nicholas' charm and enthusiasm for the work also evoked memories of Bond, another model Mark had really enjoyed working with (
HERE:) Bond is also a
FH favorite, thanks to the many shoots I was fortunate to have featured from Wes from
New Manhattan Studios. It was Wes who first introduced me to Bond, and who also first connected Bond with Mark. Given that Nicholas was on his was to NYC to visit friends, Mark returned the favor, and connected Nicholas with Wes for a shoot while in New York.
With a full day of shooting, Mark captured many different themes and in so many different locations. I'm hoping a book might coming in the near future so we can all enjoy more of Mark's work with Nick and his muscles!

Sigh. It's a tough job, but someone has to photograph these gorgeous guys.
