Billy is an Australian dancer based in Japan. We had spoken on and off about doing a photo shoot but because of the geography it didn't happen for a long while. Then when Billy came back to Australia to visit his family we made it happen. It was a chilly morning when I picked him up for the drive in to the National Park but it was totally worth it.

Billy has an incredibly intriguing blend of a baby face with a man's body. His porcelain skin really caught the early morning light and gave him an ethereal look. That's why I decided to call this download "Lost Boy". He certainly doesn't look like he spends a long time roughing it in the Australian bush but at the same time he looked comfortable. There is a beautiful vulnerability about Billy which was probably emphasised by the fact that was one of, if not his very first nude photo shoots.

I'd love to get to photograph him in an edgy studio shoot some time as I have seen him do that kind of thing spectacularly.
