I thought I would post a few images that are in my archives. Here are 3 photographs of Wei, which were taken back in 2006. With hardly a body to speak of but the willingness and spirit to let me photograph him during his budding youth, I was pleased to have him in front of the camera. The photograph of him that made it into the Asian Male – 1.AM book was the one below.
Cover to The Asian Male 3.AM – Photography by Norm Yip
Hardcover edition with Jacket 112 pages on 200gsm Art Matte Paper
The Asian Male – 3.AM. The 3rd edition will showcase the best photographs of guys in the past 7 years. The majority of the images are in black and white and shot mostly in my Hong Kong studio. The ethnic range includes Thai, Filipino, Vietnamese, Malay, Japanese, Cambodian and Chinese.
Bodies range from the super masculine and hard bodied men such as Vietnamese Jeremy Tang, to the softer and lyrical body of Nono, a young and exceptionally photogenic Filipino. Then there is Malaysian-Chinese Derek Chong, who I photographed several times both nude and with fashion accessories. The images celebrate and bring to the forefront the beauty of Asian men in a erotic and sensuous way.
There are semi-nudes to nudes in this book, but it is all photographed in a sensitive and sensual way. The men that appear come from all areas of life, including financial advisors, dancers and performers, professional models and more.

It’s not every day that I have the opportunity to photograph a professional Asian male model for my collection of images, but here he is — Wilfred Wong. He’s got a superb beautiful smile and a personality that is sweet and sincere. The shoot went on for about 3 hours before we got the best shots, but here is a sampler of an image taken earlier during the session.
