'I've never had the opportunity to do a CFNM shoot, although it's long been on my bucket list. The problem has always been finding the right female.'
This series of images was actually first conceived late last summer, beginning in an September e-mail from Wes from New Manhattan Studios. We were working on the piece I posted spotlighting the studio's work with Fischer. (HERE:) In the e-mail, Wes mentioned a conversation he'd had with Marc French. Starting out as a venue host shooting behind-the-scenes shots on his cellphone, Marc has quickly worked his way up the studio’s path from production assistant and reflector holder to now working as a second cameraman.
Marc shared with Wes that he had a friend coming to visit from Europe. This particular friend was also really wanting to attend a photo shoot, and perhaps even model as well. Marc asked Wes if he knew of another model who might be available to shoot with his friend. The catch, if you haven't guessed already, is that the friend was female. Now Wes had certainly shot women before, but it had been years. The last time was years during his time learning studio lighting in Dwight Schneider's workshops.
Never one to let an artistic opportunity pass me by, when I heard Wes was looking for a male model to shoot with Marc's friend Jenny, I replied sharing how much I loved CFNM shoots. FH readers know that CFNM/CMNM shoots have been a theme I've been exploring the last few years. Wes picked up on my less than subtle clue, and shared that he's long wanted to shoot the theme. Now excited as Wes and I were, Wes still had to run it by Marc, not to mention checking with Jenny.
As you can see, both were clearly on board! Wes also took things further by inviting not one, but two hot hunks to model nude alongside Jenny. I'm sure many of you already spotted the strappingly sexy Ricardo, who I featured earlier this month. (HERE:) taking on the third role of this erotically elegant triad is Mason Boudrye a Brooklyn based model, actor and singe. Mason makes the perfect third for the tantalizing triangle, although his incredible ass produces such captivating curves, the poses are as artistically circular as they are triangular.
'The CMNM shoot turned out to be one of the more memorable shoots the studio has done. There's a story (of course) and the end result was not what I was expecting. Jenny, who stole the show in every photo. This is a very atypical collection. First, there's the subject matter. Then we have three models and three cameras. . .and the three styles and perspectives of each photographer. '
So with Ricardo and Mason, two of the studio's most popular models on board, New Manhattan Studios was set for it's first Clothed Female/Nude Male shoot. Shooting along side Wes were Marc French and Tay Keiper, a long-time studio associate and also a model as well. As Wes stated, this series displays the work of three models, three different photographers, and three clearly distinguishable shooting styles.
Jenny is an accomplished and remarkable individual. A distinguished Eurasian model and successful international businesswoman, she had an impressive record of achievements and diverse interests (including pole dancing). That evening, she was charming and a wicked good model. She was also was stunning on camera and the focal point of every photo in which she appeared. In person, I had been overwhelmed by her charm and beauty. I was delighted that she was equally radiant on camera.
We were shooting with retired incandescent lamps that I hadn’t used in over ten years and I forgot to change the camera settings to correct for the color of light we were using. The first photo I chose to edit was Jenny framed by the backs of the two male models. When it opened on my screen, I was struck by the mood created by the golden tones of the incandescent lights.
I was enchanted by Jenny’s beauty in warm candlelight and dark shadows. I found myself staring at Dulcinea through the eyes of Don Quixote, a vision spun from stardust and sonnets. In the golden light, I could hear the music of the Cantina in the background.
