"With male nudity being one of the last taboos of our society, men don't get a chance to show their beauty and be appreciated for it. It is uncomfortable to fit masculinity and beauty together. My photography depicts men without focusing on sexual orientation. This kind of intimate portrait photography draws viewer into the game of a voyeur and an exhibitionist. Filled with erotic charge and sexual tension, these images are guaranteed to arouse. With a more natural relationship to nudity, we might also be freed up to find each other a lot more fascinating. " -Drasko Bogdanovic

"Last year in the United States, the entire adult industry, which included sex toy production, grossed $8 to 12 million dollars. It’s funny how this multi million-dollar industry is considered taboo. I have been working at an adult retail store now for about 4 years. Over time I have become desensitized with the whole subject matter and wanted to look at it with a different approach. How is it that an industry that makes so much money and gets so much attention is barely talked about? Maybe it’s because for the most part, most are afraid of this unknown territory. But why are we so afraid or ashamed about educating ourselves about what comes naturally to us as human beings?" - Sarah Schorlemer
