Fashion Photographer Steven Klein's Pictures

About time these male models call this shit out for what it really is. Overpriced pornish, fetish books taking advantage of not only the male models but people who love to think 'everything is art' and have way too much money to spend for their own boner good. Hope he doesn't get kicked out from his agency or 'blacklisted' or get called anti-lgbt.
 
I dunno. I mean, Klein's work isn't really my style, but there's nothing that shocking about these images. I've seen high-fashion female models in very sexualised shoots that are broadcast to a much larger audience than these photos will be. A lot of fashion and art is based on fetish and fantasy. Nobody seems to really care when it's just women.

i have to admit there is one model involved in the spread who i would really like to see more of (henry watkins), but from an objective point of you, especially with the way the casting photos were published (censored frontals), i can't help but think the entire shoot is 99% for klein's own enjoyment. something about taking frontal pictures of models during a casting does not sit well - especially when i think there may have been some models who didn't get hired, so essentially have nudes they weren't compensated for held on to by the creative team. conflicting feelings!

Same! I want to see more Henry to be honest.

I don't know... part of the allure is the wrong doing. Hence I actually find the casting photos way hotter than the actual shoot, but maybe that's just me?

honestly, maybe it's just because i am getting older but henry is the only one in the shoot that appeals - everyone else is a bit too boyish!

and yeah, i definitely revisited his casting photo too because imagining henry show up at my door and get naked for some candid keepsakes is hardly a unappealing scenario... but overall i have to concede that me too, unequal power dynamics, and exploitative behaviours shouldn't be given a free pass when it interferes with me getting off. basically, henry, just go set up a good quality OF with tasteful nudes and get the dollar you deserve!

Saw Chad White in this shoot as well! Curious if there's more of him...
 

Harry Sellers had modelled nude, frontal and fully erect in a shoot before, with his hand stroking his erection, one of the hottest "fashion shoot" LOL. The uncensored ones have not yet surfaced still. And by no means I'm against these overly sexualized photoshoots, there's a place for that too.

Who is the model and is that Chad White touching him?
Matt Van De Sande

Didn’t even realise that was Chad?
