Public Exposure:
If you're a regular FH reader, you most likely noticed my clothed male, nude male, (cmnm) and clothed female, nude male, (cfnm) themed posts over the last year or so. I've always loved the theme and the vulnerably experienced by most, when fully bare and exposed in front of a crowd of people fully dressed.
Most cmnm / cfcm scenarios, occur in expected places. In classrooms, where it's planned for the dressed students to draw, paint or sculp a nude model. Then there's of course strip clubs, where the whole idea is for a room of clothed strangers, to enjoy a dancer stripping naked, slowly and seductively removing each piece of their clothing.
My favorite locations for cmnm/cfnm visuals however, are those taken in unexpected places. Places where you didn't necessarily expect to see a body completely naked. In those case, the element of surprise also adds to the erotic energy in the images. One of my favorite series of shots featuring this theme is this shoot, that I'm guessing almost all of you have seen before. The images are from Australian photographer Petez Imagez, and I believe these shots were taken around 2011.
I seem to remember maybe seeing a video of this in the past, but sadly couldn't find it when I went looking. If I remember quickly, the clothed female in question was interviewing a male swim team, and while flirting of course, tried to get them out of their speedos, an into an aussieBum jockstrap. I'm not sure she worked for aussieBum, but I'm guessing she certainly helped sell a lot of product.
In addition the the cfmn/cmnm elements, I think the images were so popular thanks to everything Petez managed to capture. There's a crow of strangers in the background, most with their phones out taking pictures. Some may have been taking video, but I don't remember video being that widely used in most cell phones in 2011. I could be off on that one, I think I was still using a flip phone in 2011 as my phone was a company one, issued by my employer.
Petez also captured the models friends, and fellow swim team members who seem to be enjoying seeing his buddy put on a show. I'd love to know if he is was the only one who stripped down to try on the jockstrap, or if any of his mates also joined in. Petez also captured the models great smile. Although completely naked in front of friends and strangers, he seems to be enjoying the experience and having fun being the only naked one amongst a clothed crowd.

12 Days: Nathan Witte in My Best Friend's Bouquet
'Josie believes the wedding bouquet finds the one who's next to marry and is shocked to catch it at her friend's reception. When she starts dating a fellow guest, her belief keeps her from realizing the right man's been there all along.'
Although I love a good Hallmark holiday film, I tend to stay away from any of the overtly 'romantic' themed films. I know, I know, they're all romantic, but for some reasons most of the 'spring into love' or 'wedding' themed films don't interest me the same way the Autumn, Christmas and Hannukah films do. They also just don't seem as good. They're like afterthoughts to fill space after the Holiday watchers have turned the channel.
I'm sure it's just me, because I tuned into one last week and really enjoyed it. My Best Friend's Bouquet actually first aired in 2020, but I missed it until I saw a repeat last week. From the title, it's clear it was a 'wedding' theme film, but since I'm still weaning myself off holiday films, I thought I would give this one a try.
I'm glad I watched. The film was sort of a slow burn. There was no real action or any surprises, it wasn't even especially well written or directed. The magic was in the chemistry between the two main actors, Josie played by Chaley Rose and Alex played by Nathan Witte. The characters were close friends, but you could feel they were on verge of transitioning to romance at any moment.
It was just a matter of time, and although the writers didn't throw anything really unexpected our way, it was still rewarding when they finally acknowledged how they felt. I'd seen actor Nathan Witte in a few other Hallmark films, but none that have spotlighted his sex appeal and natural charm as well as this film did.
Witte has been acting since he was a teenager growing up in Alberta. After moving to Vancouver however, he really began a roll, picking up roles in Canadian filmed shows including: Smallville, Supernatural, Hellcats and Arrow. Soon, Witte began getting roles in movies and has been working with Hallmark in movies and television the last eight or nine years.
I was hoping to find Witte had done a little on-screen nudity, but after a quick search, came up empty. Then I headed to ausCaps, as they often have scenes not found anywhere else. Voila, there it was, caps of Witte from the 2020 comedy The Perfect Pickup. In both of his nude scenes, his character Corey certainly seems to appreciate a good ass, especially his own!

Purely Experimental: Oscar by Jack Saul
If you've ever done any recording, you know the phrase, 'Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3' is used to test the audio and sound quality of a microphone before starting to record. Many photographers, especially those shooting the nude form, also utilize a testing system within their work.
I 'm not talking about test shots, most photographer begin a shoot by taking a few test shots, allowing time for the model to warm up and to ensure the lighting and technical equipment is all ready to go. I'm talking about a test shoot, where a complete newcomer to modeling is tested to see how comfortable they are in front of the camera, and how well their features photograph.
For photographer Jack Saul, test shoots have often led to finding great models to shoot. They've also helped weed out certain subjects, therefore saving him both valuable time and money. For Jack, these test shoots don't usually involve models he's connected with on-line, but complete newcomers to modeling, mostly who he's encountered in his everyday life.
'My test shoot usually involve just taking a few unplanned shots in a very short space of time. (literally 10-15 minutes), The reason, is to see how the subject takes to modelling and whether it might be something we'd explore in more depth another time. In most cases, it's purely experimental, in most cases.'
Sometimes the 'test' subject is someone Jack knows well, a friend or co-worker who wants to give modeling a try, other times, it's a complete stranger as was the case with Oscar. The last time Jack was in London, he had book a day with shoots back to back, and had no openings or time to shoot another model. Then.. he had a chance encounter at a supermarket check out.
Jack had stopped to purchase some snacks and water to have on hand for the scheduled models when the adorable Oscar said hello, and gave him a big smile as he rung through his grocery order. Jack was impressed with Oscar's energy, outgoing personality and adorable smile. Although he doesn't do it often, Jack took the opportunity to ask the 19 year old if he'd ever considered modeling.
Oscar was initially surprised, but also a little flattered, and began asking Jack about his work. Jack answered his questions, and suggested Oscar check out his Instagram page. Since it was early in the morning, it was quiet in the store, and Oscar pulled out his phone to check out Jack's page. Jack wasn't sure if Oscar was shocked when he came upon a page of male nudes, but he smiled as he scrolled through Jack's portfolio.
Oscar was obviously interested, and asked Jack a few more questions, including when they could get together. Jack said he was only in London shooting for the day. Oscar seemed a little disappointed, and said he was working, and wasn't off until 3pm. Jack replied that if he was really serious, he could drop by the hotel he was shooting in after work. Jack was sure to let Oscar know he didn't have time for a full shoot, but coadd probably grab 5 or 10 minutes to take a few test shots.
Although Jack wasn't sure Oscar was going to show up, as you can see, he made it. Jack asked the other model he was shooting if he was cool with a 10 minute break, and he was more than happy to take a break, and check out Oscar's test shoot. Jack barely had time to tell Oscar it was go, before Oscar had stripped down and was standing there completely naked, ready to go with a big smile on his face.
As you can see, Oscar seemed to have a lot of fun during his test shoot, even thought was only about 10 minutes long. Before Oscar left, Jack had just enough time to ask if it was ok to post his shots, and have him sign a release. He also encouraged Oscar to shoot him a message on Instagram, and possibly discuss a future shoot. Here's hoping we get to see more of Oscar, and his great energy and smile, in the future.
