As a photographer, I am seeking for that good side in the most truthful way, from my own set of aesthetics.I owe so much to the models that have allowed me to work with them, to share in the experience, and to entrust me with physical bodies to be photographed nude. In Hong Kong, and for most of Asia, the unadorned body is seen simply as pornography. And only recently, has there been a more normalized acceptance of male beauty. The cosmetic companies and influx of gymnasiums attest to that. Nevertheless, I thank those first few models who believed in me in allowing me to photograph them.
If you like what you see in this website, I would encourage you to purchase my photography books, namely ‘The Asian Male – 1.AM, 2.AM and 3.AM, to which I published on my own. It will help pay for the costs involved in photographing the models, which includes the film, post production, and website. The publication itself is of high quality and I want to main a level of excellence in all that I do.In the end, I want everyone to share in the spirit of photography and the beauty of asian men from all over.
