This image of former pro-bodybuilder Kevin Lawrence was shot on Ektachrome Plus 100, a film that has now been discontinued altogether. I shot with my Zeiss 150 and scanned from the original 2¼ transparency. Cropping and curves were handled in Photoshop.

This series of Kevin was crafted on a rainy day in a small canyon in the Hollywood Hills. I worked with an umbrella tucked into my pants and perched on my shoulders to keep the rain off my camera. It was awkward and every time I squatted down to get the right angle I gave myself a good jab to the jewels. I was sore for several days afterwards, but hey, suffering for one's art is a noble thing, right? Kevin was nude for the duration of the shoot and chilled to the bone by the time we were done. I think his suffering was at least equal to mine.

Kevin was the first pro bodybuilder that I'd worked with and I was intrigued by his muscles, but only when they weren't flexed. He had plenty of other photographers interested in his pumped up bodybuilder poses while I was really only interested in his muscles at rest and the more graceful context of a classical setting.
