'I loved having two elves to work with! No rehearsals were necessary - they both took to it like ducks to water'
It was the Christmas of 2015 when the tradition begun. That was the year the first naked holiday elf stood on the step ladder to help photographer Gordon Nebeker trim his tree. There may have been naked tree decorators before 2015, but that was the first year Gordon the elf was photographed and shared the results with FH.
Long time readers might remember that first holiday helper was Mr. Elf Herzog. (HERE:) Since then, we've had Elf Tim, Elf Ryan and Elf Mark, Both Elf Mark and Elf Herzog pulled decorating duties on two separate years. The tree's have also been trimmed in Massachusetts, Florida, and in a secret forest, on a Southern State, somewhere along the coast during one of Gordon's drives south.
This year, Gordon decided to really deck his halls. The pandemic meant many had quieter Christmas' than usual, and Gordon thought it was time to make up and pull out all the stops. This meant not one, but two elves were required, so after initially writing the North Pole for Elf Zachary to come down to help, a last minute request was sent for Elf Patrick to join him.
As you can clearly see from Gordon's shots, the job of trimming the tree is a lot more fun with an extra set of hands. This way, you can be sure to ensure there are no bare spaces on the tree, and every nook cranny and crevices is given the attention it so sumptuously deserves. Two elves ensured that this year's Christmas tree was most amorously Elvenly enhanced.
It turns out that this wasn't the first time that Zachary and Patrick have jingled their balls together. They previously met and worked together at an Elf convention a few years ago. When Patrick learned Zachary was hired to trim Gordon's tree, wrap his packages and polish his sugar plums, he was sad to be stuck back at the North Pole.
It worked out perfectly then, when Gordon decided an tasty twosome of elves. There is obviously elfin chemistry, and as great as they look together, and as yummy as their mythical bodies are, I especially love the twinkle in their eyes and the excitement on their faces. After a job well done, and the magic of the Christmas season, their eyes all aglow will make it hard to sleep tonight...
'It was such a pleasure being asked to be this year’s Christmas elf! I had a blast being able to shoot with Gordon again, and I was happy to have Patrick tag along for double the fun!'
