The story behind Early Riser

There are times when I turn up on a shoot with the vibe that the model is going to be fairly modest and then I get totally surprised by the complete lack of modesty.

Trent turned up was visiting Sydney and wanted to do a shoot and of course I was happy to photograph him. Look at him! He's a very sexy guy but I didn't realise how comfortable he would be showing off for the camera. There are shots from the series that were just for him where he went further but those aren't for me to share.

I think my favourite shoots at this beach are on the days when the sun isn't quite making a full appearance. We were around the corner in an area that usually gets full sunlight, even fairly early but this morning the light was soft and beautiful.

Trent had no qualms at all about getting hard on camera and of course he looked good doing it. We took a bunch of photos at the end of the shoot that were quite intimate for him to give his partner. He seemed very comfortable out there in nature enjoying himself.

As professional as I am, it can be a struggle to stay focused and concentrate, but I did and the shoot looks great.
