Four years ago I finally got to work with Max on this shoot after meeting him through a Brisbane friend and photographer Joel Devereux, then photographing him for another community project (above).
Max is a performer in adult videos and a very blessed individual as you can see if you have access to the download linked above. Here is a link to his twitter just in case you're not subscribed at the ALL OUT level (but seriously, why aren't you?).
Since we had known each other for a while and I knew how cheeky he is, I dared him to walk out of his house to the car nude to head off. He very nearly got caught but he definitely did walk out nude which you can see in the gif above.
But with a high profile such as Max's, it means there are lots of shoots already out there and I don't want to photograph him in the same way he'd already been done. So we had a bit of a moody morning down at the nude beach with Max looking amazing. Being in the industry he is, he's not shy, so we did lots of erotic shots mixed in with the moody shots. He got in the water and got a bit sandy before we headed up behind the beach to the bushland for a few more shots.
Sadly he's not living in the same City as me any more so opportunities to work together are limited but I would love to make it happen again.
