Finally finished editing this shoot with Johnathan from NYC, just in time too, because we are scheduled for another session in just a couple of weeks (June 30.)  I am always excited to work with this incredibly hot man, whom I am  also fortunate to call a wonderful friend.  We’ve never done a shoot that hasn’t ended in sexy, steamy, erotic, and just downright stunning images, like this one of him at my former Harlem apartment and studio.

I’m not sure whether I knew that artist Jeanne-Claude had died in 2009 or not. But I’m glad to see her artist-partner Christo has a new project next June in Venice, Italy that should be spectacular. I was fortunate enough to experience The Gates in NYC in person back in 2005, which I also managed to do a guerilla shoot of nudes with ginger model Rusty McMann.

The beginnings and ends of shadow lie between the light and darkness and may be infinitely diminished and infinitely increased. Shadow is the means by which bodies display their form. The forms of bodies could not be understood in detail but for shadow.
