Interview With Didio

 

 

You must be living under a virtual rock if you haven’t seen the work of Brazilian photographer Antonio Cesar Bezerra, who is commonly known as Didio. From the pages of Junior magazine & Terra’s The Boy to top blogs such as Made in Brazil, Charmants and OhLaLa Mag; his sensual images are everywhere.

 

Didio was very kind in granting Homotography an interview that sheds light about his photography, his life, and his hopes and ambitions. We start with an introduction about Didio and then present the interview with samples of his fantastic photography work. It was extremely hard to pick and choose which images to use from his vast archive.

Backstage Photos of Paris Men Shows

 

If you enjoyed the Dolce & Gabbana Milan show backstage photos, then you will love those backstage photos from a number of the Paris Fall/Winter 2009 fashion shows. Models.com hired Eric Sposito to capture those images from all the different Paris shows (Dior Homme, Kenzo, John Galliano, Dunhill, Paul Smith, Ungaro, Thierry Mugler & more). I give you a sample of those cool images, but you have to visit Models.com for the awesome complete archive.

Head out to Homotrophy for a review of the second issue of a new London-based online magazine entitled Drama Magazine. I am liking this trend of free online magazines. [see more at Homotrophy]

 

Beach-House Chilling with Pepe Jeans London SS09

 

Here is the new  Spring / Summer 2009 ad campaign for Pepe Jeans London by Steven Meisel with a theme of a group of friends lounging and relaxing in a beach house.

 

 

The campaign features models Danny Schwarz, Jamie Strachan, Daria Werbowy, Anna Jagodzinska, and Boyd Holbrook.

 

 

Danny Schwarz has been coming up a lot on my radar. When it comes to S/S 09, he’s already been featured here in the new D&G and the controversial CK Jeans campaigns. I will be keeping an eye on this stud! Danny boy is signed with Premier Model Management London and VNY Model Management New York.

 

 

While I loved Julien Quévenne in the Pepe Jeans S/S 09 ads, I prefer this one because it has more of a story and frankly seeing only Julien in either all denim or black pieces against a white background got a bit boring after the 10th image...

Battle of The Eyes: Travis vs. Patrick by Joe Lally

 

Who wore it better? We have two hunks (Patrick Rukai & Travis Hanson) from Major Models shot by the same photographer, Joe Lally, with a similar bold smoky eye makeup. The Hanson spread is for West East magazine, and Patrick is in an editorial called ‘Male Beauty’. I think they both look great and we win by having them both :)

Best of 2008: Hangin’ Tough with Joe Lally

 

I will be wrapping up the Best of 2008 feature soon (maybe after a couple of weeks, so if I missed any noteworthy 2008 photoshoot, send me a tip and I will try to post it). In the mean time, I have to feature this fun editorial by homotographer Joe Lally which was shot for Contributing Editor. Sometimes fun & vibrant colors can be all you need when you have models & a photographer like these.

 

 

The models are Doug Porter, Steve Gold, Cory Bond, Simon Tham, Tyler Lough, Manuel Taxeria, Tyler Kenyon, and Brian Shimansky. They are all with Major Models.

 

Promiscuous Post #1

 

Each now and then I will feature a promiscuous post, which is essentially an “around the web” post that features links to cool stuff on other fabulous sites and blogs. There is so much hotness in the blogosphere, so it’s OK to be a bit promiscuous and flirt around, just make sure you wear protection ;)

The Photography of Mark Seliger

 

I got curious about the photography of Mark Seliger after I featured the new Frankie Morello campaign he shot. Upon visiting his online portfolio, I found many images that I liked, from backstage shots of Milan fashion shows to portraits of musicians and movie stars such as Kurt Cobain, Paul McCartney, Casey Affleck & Lenny Kravitz. I share some of them with you here.

 

A Visual Overload of Hunks
