Artists That Inspire:

Tasty Smut

When FH began, I first listed all the contributors on the side of the site. At the time, I never imagined I would still be working on the FH ten plus years later and have collaborated on stories with hundreds of photographers. I changed my link category title to 'recent contributes' and started Artist's Who Inspire to ensure all of the artists who have appeared on the site were credited.

The Male Muse


Below is an update featuring the many artists and photographers who have so generously supported FH over the last decade plus.  Usually I add to the list each year, but it's been close to two years since my update. All of the images featured are all from artists who made their first appearance on FH since I last updated in 2022.

Are You Ready???

Tis The Season....

No, not Thanksgiving and not Christmas. It's now officially Cuffing season.  You know, that time of year when singles are looking for a short-term romantic partner to spend the colder months with.  'Romantic' may be stretching it a bit.... most are looking for snuggle buddies to curl up with, have plenty of sex with, but then abruptly ditch when the first Spring crocus appears.


Cuffing season usually begins in October and can last for some, until just after Valentine's Day. However, people some people may even have started looking earlier in the hopes of maintaining a connection before the more aggressive cuffers are on the prowl.

With Christmas just over a month away, we're approaching peak Cuff Season.  Men are getting a wee anxious, and showing a bit more skin to lure ensure a quick cuffing.  Some are, 'accidentally' opening the front door pantless, hoping the Amazon delivery driver is welcoming of the gesture. 


So, best of luck to all those on the hunt!  To both the cuffer and the cuffee, never give up, you never know who's waiting around the corner to hoist you over their shoulder, and take you home for some pressure filled Netflix nights and office Christmas parties. 


And... to you all of you that are married, engaged or coupled up, don't get too cocky.   Hide your cuffs in a box somewhere, but don't throw them away, you never know if you'll need them one day int he future.  The most aggressive cuffers aren't usually those who haven't had a long term partner, they're usually the ones who have.  Play nice, play fare, but above all, play hard!

Sudden Impact: Alexander & Cooper by Images Male


Given that FH has been up for awhile, I accept that not every image, nor every post can be memorable to everyone.  Not every visual or story, can leave an impact. That doesn't mean though, that it's not my goal, each and every time I choose a subject, or set of images to spotlight.  This story, includes several artists whose work previously made an impact on me. 


Some of you might recognize Alexander and Cooper, the two models who this past Christmas, helped deck the halls, and trim the tree, for photographer Gordon Nebeker. (HERE:)  I featured many duo shoots over the years, but I believe this was the first time I featured a married couple together.  Although I like to tell a story with each post, at Christmas, I usually keep the text light, and focus mostly on the holiday and the specifics of how the shoot came together.   For the Elf piece, I only asked Cooper and Alexander for a brief comment about the shoot.

Within their answers however, there were a few things they shared, that I really wanted to further explore.  My curiosity and interested was magnified after seeing additional images on Cooper's Instagram of the couple taken by photographer David E. (Images Male) David's work always evokes a sudden impact when I see it, and this was certainly the case when I saw his work with Alexander and Cooper.


I was first introduced to David's work back in 2017 by Mark from MW Photo MD.  In addition to creating, David also spends time teaching, sharing his knowledge and experience with new photographers. Mark was a huge fan of David's style, and sought him out when he was first starting to shoot.  That shoot, which remains one of my favorites, also happened to feature two models, one of whom was Alexander. (HERE: & HERE:)


I don't actually often feature couple shoots as so many for me, seem prioritize the sexual elements over the artistic.  There are already fundamental erotic and sensual components in most visuals of two nude men together.  The art comes when the photographer and the models bring them out naturally through pose, lighting and setting a mood. Rare do this as well as David E.  


I remember in the first piece that I did featuring his work, David summed up his artistic goals.  With each shoot, and each image, he strived to maintain the viewers attention for an extended period of time, and to pull them back to view it again and again. Given the 'quick scroll' by world we're in, especially on social media, this can be a difficult task, but David beautifully succeeds.  Ever since being introduced to his work, I often find myself returning to some of my favorite shots, and at the same time, hoping to discover new ones.  That's exactly what happened when I saw David's work with Alexander and Cooper.


The same dynamic visuals I remembered were beautifully evident in his work with Cooper and Alexander.  Images highlighted with unique poses and a focus geometry and architecture. Unique lines and curves with two bodies physically and emotionally connected.  David creates a powerfully erotic mood.  David uses the male form in it's entirety, not relying on just specific body parts to create sensuality and connection.  Some of my favorite shots of Cooper and Alexander include images in in which the electricity is created through pose. body proximity, and a brief moment of touch. 


David was one of the first photographers that Alexander connected with on Model Mayhem. David and Alexander's work together also made on impact on Cooper, who shares some of his favorite images of Alexander stem from his collaborations with David.  So much so, that Cooper reached out to the Virginia based photographer about having one of the shots he took of put on canvas as Christmas gift for Alexander. 


Not long after, Alexander agreed to participate in a shoot that David was doing, once again, the shoot was also going to be part of training a new photographers.  David was excited to work with Alexander again, and was more than fine with Cooper tagging along.  As you can clearly see, Cooper did much more than just tag along, but joined in to create this stunning set of visuals. 


As dynamic as David's shots are of Cooper and Alexander are, the real couple becomes a visual throuple, (at least artistically), when a third model joins them for part of the shoot.  Check out those images, as well as more of Alexander and Cooper's modeling, and personal journey together, on the NEXT PAGE HERE:

Quaternate: MW Photo MD


'I was participating in the National Novel Writing Month. During the writing of the novel, one of my characters developed into someone who had setup his own photo studio in his house, something I would like to do myself. 

I thought I better do a little research to understand the equipment and setup, and to make it interesting and real for my story. I went on the web and did a search for photographers and models and I came across Model Mayhem. I decided right then and there that I wanted to do this myself. ' 


I love the story of how Mark came to photography and the creation of MW Photo MD.  My love of writing and art are so intertwined, I'm not actually sure which came first for me. After seeing his work with Andrew over five years ago, I began following Mark's work, looking forward to seeing who he was shooting next, and how he'd creatively capture them. Mark always strives to capture unique and artistic images of each of the models he shoots, pushing erotic boundaries along the way.
