Well, what do I say... I have been mad keen on photography since I was a kid. I really got into it after spending a week playing with pin hole cameras one summer holidays. It was a local museum of art programme where they helped you make a camera, taught you how to use it, then sent you off with half a dozen sheets of photo paper in a black plastic bag and you got creative.

Some time I will have to hunt down those first truly creative photos I took and scan em...

Anyway, I set myself up a darkroom when I was 19 and then was able to start experimenting with nude photography - self timers are an interesting tool! Thankfully I decided to destroy most of those very poor BW attempts!

Segue forward a bunch of years to the early 2000s and I got into digital SLR photography in a big way. In 2004 I decided to take the plunge and make a real go of my hobby of photographing hot young guys. I incorporated a company, rented a large space and turned it into a studio of sorts. This was the beginning of my erotic photography life.

It's always been a hobby really - I sort of made enough money to cover rent for a while (selling photo sets to web sites). But the market for photo sets has really dried up - it's video all the way in the web porn industry now...

However, the artistic shots (which are the only ones you will see on DA) are the ones that truly make me proud of what I have done.

Over the next few weeks I'll continue trolling through the good stuff and picking out the really nice shots. Often this will be their first place to be published - let's face it, you can only sneak one or two artistic poses into a salable porn set!

Cheers
Pete
