in this more classical and romantic shot the simple use
of light, a plant, and the model’s position creates the
sensual mood. i placed the model next to the window so
that the light would bathe about three-quarters of his
body, leaving the rest in shadow.

 Untitled nude dread, 2005
Here i used one strobe with a spot attachment pointed at
the background and another on a softbox above the
model. the black leather cuffs represent the bondage of
slavery—a strong topic, but the model’s position and soft
lighting add a level of sensuality.
