Photographer Marlena Elise’s new adventure called “Sexy Boudoir for Men” is definitely off to a good start. Shooting with models Pipo and Fabian against this Jungle Green Backdrop was a blast!
“I wanted to highlight my new adventure capturing Sexy Boudoir for Men. As it is apparent how over saturated it is to photograph female nudes, sexy portraits of women – and with all the recent balancing of the sexes stories and happening catch phrases like #GirlBoss and #GirlGaze why not women photograph sexy guys? For an industry that is still heavily male dominated in paying roles, why not have more women photograph, why are so many women are still heavily photographing domesticated roles like endless imagery of babies, children, fashion for women and weddings? Its so safe, it’s so boring. Regardless what is socially acceptable or not – I actually really enjoy photographing sexy men, and the location we shot in at FD Studios provided an incredibly elegant and stress-free space as all of my photo studio needs were provided for! I had a blast photographing Pipo and Fabian in red against this Jungle Green Backdrop. I used the large umbrella – Alien Bee’s Lights to help me capture the standing images of Pipo as he is a very tall model and dancer. We also got some great shots and tasteful nudes against the industrial window scene. In addition I had another model there (Fabian with the Tattoo’s). I was trading off about every 20 minutes, they both were great. I had Fabian work with my assistant for some slow moving videos as well. I seriously would not be able to pull this amazing shoot off in 2 hours with any other team or studio rental. I’d be more than happy to work with FD Studios anytime!”
