Cool Breeze: Indio Jones by On Display Men


'Alan is a very talented photographer and a true professional.  He's very easy to work, treated me with respect, and the shoot was an overall great experience.  I can't wait to work with him again. '


There's nothing better than a cool breeze on a hot, sticky summer day.  Sure, that momentary chill may not last for long, but for those few brief seconds, it's like heaven.  Those few seconds are exactly what I loved so much about this series of model Indio Jones by Alan Rust of On Display Men.  

There's something concupiscently cool about Indio, something Alan clearly also saw and incorporated and captured during their time working together.  It's seen in the fashion, in Indio's sharp look and confident poses.  It's seen in his eyes, with or without his sunglasses.  It's also seen and felt in Indio's stance, poses and the featured locations.  Alan seems to have chosen every location to match the style and mood of each of Indio's looks. 


So many models who begin Onyfans pages, often start by primarily taking and posting selfies.  It makes sense, it's easier, and less expensive than working with a professional photographer.  The problem is, we don't all see ourselves the same way, and after awhile many of the images can start to look and feel the same. 

I think part of being a model is more than just having their images seen by others.  It's also important to be viewed and photographed by another set of eyes.  Different views and perspectives are important in both in life, and in art.  Our sense of self is often impacted by our emotions and experiences, and most of us depend on trusted friends and professionals for balance.


I wish more models would return to including shoots with photographers, both professional and amateur, on their social media and fan pages.  I've joined several OnlyFans over the years, and my favorites are the sites that include a combination of sexy selfies as well as shoots and videos captured by another.  It increases the visual variety for viewers cans see and enjoy.  It also gives a different and unique perspective of the model we're following that's not possible if every visual is from only one view and perspective... their own.


Indio recently began his own OnlyFans, and applaud his decision to chose Alan Rust to help build his portfolio.  Alan is an incredibly skilled and assiduous photographer.  Alan's also an artist who ensures the models he works with end up with a 'complete' portfolio. A set of images that include a variety of looks and moods, as well as capturing pieces of their personality and essence.  In this case, it was definitely Indio's cool, sexy vibe that Alan both created and captured during their time shooting together.


Alan and Indio initially connected through Model Mayhem, and planned their shoot around creating images and content for Indio's portfolio, OnlyFans and social media sites.  Indio was already an experienced model, having worked professionally, with several major accounts on his resume.   Indio and Alan shot multiple times over the course of a weekend, giving them many opportunities to work in several locations while capturing many different styles and looks.


'Indio likes to work out and show off his perfect body. We both tried to make the most of the couple of days we had to create. He is very professional and very free about shooting any type of content. It was refreshing for me. '
