'This shoot wasn't for a modeling portfolio or an OnlyFans. Fletcher really wanted to experience modeling nude, and the images were mainly for himself, to share as he saw fit.'
Sometimes the best shoots are ones with any specific goals except to push one's boundaries, and feel and experience what it's like to shoot nudes. Fletcher really made the most out of his time with Jim, exploring his sensuality without any boundaries or inhibitions. They say you should 'dance like nobody's was watching', and Fletcher really seemed to express himself like there wasn't a camera, or a photographer in the room.
When you first saw Fletcher, what struck you about his appearance?
Fletcher is a very striking young man, nice toned slender body and strong facial features. He was a swimmer in his school days.
Were there any goals on his part of the shoot?
He had not done any modeling or a photoshoot before so we just wanted to get him some great photos for his personal use.
Was the nudity any issue at all for him?
He had no issues with getting nude for the shoot. He was familiar with my type of work and had seen a few of the photos I had taken of his friend. He wanted nudes so was ready for the full experience.
As you know my work doesn't start off with nudes, we work into it for a few reasons. My photos are taken to tell a story, not just a photo so I take them through the build up of getting used to the camera while dressed. Then moving to the undressing set and by the time they are nude, they are usually quite excited and comfortable for the rest of the shoot
What was your favorite part of working with Fletcher?
I always love working with new clients who are open and wanting to have the experience of a shoot. It is a very liberating experience to have them see themselves the way others see them. He was open minded, took direction well. So to pick a favorite part is hard to do. I think it was just the overall shoot, his looks, his body, the way we connected.
Did you participate with any direction or encouragement...
lol In my initial talk I always do mention that I am a hands on guy but will always ask before touching them. As I mentioned before him being a new client not doing this before, he did require some hands on attention in helping him pose and get into the right position and ready for the shot.
I could have worked with Fletcher all afternoon but he needed to pick up his friend from the bar. it was a couple of days after our shoot, I received a call from him asking if he could come back for another shoot that he enjoyed himself so much and wanted to explore more. We then did the second shoot a few days after the first. He came prepared and ready and was much more at ease this time.
All of these images are from Fletcher's first shoot with Jim. In those thousands of images Jim sent on, there were images and themes from both their first and second time working together. I'd say that given this was Fletcher's first nude shoot, he took to it quickly and quickly relaxed, and got fully into the experience. There is one more theme from the first shoot I want to share, but don't worry, shots from the second shoot will be shared in the near future.
