This set with Buck Angel is one of my all-time favorites.  I had the opportunity to meet Buck when Princess Zoe and I did an interview with him for The Fetish Show a couple of years ago.  We stayed in contact with Buck and he ended up coming to town to headline an event that Princess Zoe sponsored.  While he was in town I had a chance to shoot with him at Princess Zoe’s house and you can see the photos here.

When I found out that we were going to be shooting together this was the concept I wanted to shoot the most.  I don’t have to tell you that Buck’s in great shape, and it occurred to me that his build is similar to the marble statues that you see in Greece or Rome.  I wanted to play off of that by bringing a marble column into the set and shooting Buck in a classic black and white series.

I used one very strong directional light to bring out his muscles and create as much drama as possible.  Buck got the concept fully, and really gave me an amazing, evocative and varied set of poses.  Let me tell you, Buck is easily one of the best models I’ve worked with.  He brings his heart and soul to a shoot!

According to his website, Buck Angel was born a biological female and conquered a lifetime of adversity to undergo his transformation and become the healthy, happy, self-confident man he is today.  I encourage you to check out his website and links below to learn more, but I can tell you from personal experience that Buck is an extraordinary man who is an incredibly positive and inspirational.  His energy and message is powerful and universal.

Buck used a photo from this set for the cover of one of his movies recently.  He also teased about making a poster from the set (I hope he does)!
