Eros

 88 duotone photographs

This lush volume presents a collection of startlingly erotic, black and white photographs by a man who is sure to emerge as a master of the medium. A model himself during the last several years, Jeff Marano has brought his own experience in front of the camera to bear to tease out the energy, vitality, and sensuality of these beautiful men. Shot using only natural light in a variety of settings-on the beach and poolside, in hotel rooms and on rooftops, on terraces and in the woods-Marano's pictures evoke old time Hollywood glamour while still allowing his subjects to retain an individuality and spontaneity rarely seen in contemporary erotic photography.

Jeff Marano's photography was inspired by his storied modeling career. He began shooting his collection in 1996 while still working as a model in Milan, Paris, and New York. In 2000 he left modeling to devote all his energies to photography. This is his first book.
