Stripped & Ripped: Kings by Studio1x


'Once Kings got comfortable, he was a natural just having fun and getting great shots.'

Earlier this year, I featured images from Kings first nude shoot with photographer Jim from Studio1x.  I was amazed how comfortable Kings was in front of the camera, especially given it was his first time shooting.  As a photographer himself, Kings certainly had knowledge and experience with the shooting process.  

As a first time model however, I was struck by his natural ability with movement and pose and especially his ability to sensually exude so intensely in front of the lens.  With Jim's direction, Kings seemed to instinctively know how to best align his incredible lines and sensuous curves.

In the previous piece, (Studio Sessions) I focused on how much I love Jim's studio work.  One of his goals, especially with a first shoot, is to capture as many looks and moods as possible. Jim's camera is always clicking,  capturing hundreds of images in each shoot.  I'm always amazed how almost each and every one is portfolio ready and worthy of spotlighting and sharing.

I always love a slow strip, and one of my favorite sequences from this shoot was Kings ripping off his wet t-shirt.  There were dozens of shots from this series and it was difficult to choose and narrow down the ones to use.

Some of you may have noticed the layer of water drops glazed in front of Kings beautiful body. This series was shot completely behind a plate of clear glass creating the effect.  Once the t-shirt was ripped off, and Kings was unencumbered by the wet cotton clinging to his body, Jim continued capturing even more of Kings lines and curves.  Check more on the NEXT PAGE HERE:
