INTIMACY IN MALE PORTRAITURE WITH NEIL MEL | NASHVILLE, TN

HEYYYY MEN! GUESS WHAT?

INTIMATE SESSIONS AREN’T JUST FOR THE LADIES! YOU DESERVE TO FEEL LIKE A KING TOO! WHETHER YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A SOLO SESSION OR TO COME IN WITH YOUR PARTNER - I AM READY TO HELP BOOST YOUR CONFIDENCE!

LAST NOVEMBER I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE SOME BOUDOIR CLASSES IN NASHVILLE WITH THE BOUDOIR CLASS. ONE OF THE CLASSES I SIGNED UP FOR WAS INTIMACY IN MALE PORTRAITURE WITH NEIL MEL. NEIL IS AMAZING AT PHOTOGRAPHING THE MALE FORM IN A BEAUTIFUL AND NATURAL WAY. I HAVE FOLLOWED HIS WORK FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW AND FELL IN LOVE WITH THE WAY HE CAPTURES EMOTION IN HIS IMAGES, SO AS SOON AS I SAW HIS NAME ON THE EDUCATOR ROSTER I JUMPED AT THE CHANCE TO LEARN FROM HIM.

I LOVED THE MAXIMALIST SETTING AT THE HOUSE OF ADORA WHERE THE CLASSES WERE HOSTED. I LOVED THAT NEIL BROUGHT IN SAMUEL FOR US TO PRACTICE THE TECHNIQUES WE LEARNED DURING THE DEMO AND DISCUSSION, WHO MUCH TO MY SURPRISE IS NOT A PROFESSIONAL MODEL - ALTHOUGH I TOLD HIM SEVERAL TIMES THAT HE SHOULD PROBABLY GO AHEAD AND PURSUE THAT PATH! HE WAS A NATURAL IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA, EVEN WITH OVER 10 PHOTOGRAPHERS CLICKING AWAY AT HIM.

NEIL’S DIRECTING STYLE IS VASTLY DIFFERENT FROM HOW I PHOTOGRAPH AND COACH CLIENTS INTO POSES. WE USED A LOT OF FREE MOVEMENT AND MUSIC TO MOVE US THROUGH THE SESSION. WHILE THIS IS VERY DIFFERENT FROM MY MANAGERIAL METHODS - AND PUSHED ME OUTSIDE OF MY COMFORT ZONE - I LEARNED SO MANY TIPS TO BRING MORE LIFE AND EMOTION TO MY BOUDOIR WORK.

I LEFT FEELING CONFIDENT AND EXCITED TO EXPAND MY OWN OFFERINGS IN THE STUDIO TO INCLUDE MORE MEN IN MY PORTFOLIO.

SO FELLA’S…I’M READY FOR YOU!!! HIT THAT INQUIRE BUTTON AND LET’S CHAT ABOUT HOW YOU ENVISION A SESSION WITH ME.
