About the Artist
"PhotoDaddy's homage to the male forms is as much
artful photography as it is sensuous erotica, or often straight up porn which leaves the viewer to grapple with both a creative appreciation along with more than a degree of titillation and ultimately arousal"
-William Huffman
I just shoot and people seem to like it. We all need to stop questioning it. I love doing it. No deeper meaning other than to be around some hot guys. Sheer titillation. It's actually quite toxic but I sometimes I do it for approval from hot guys. I wish I was them. I do it to get validation using the faces and bodies of others. Thirst trap by proxy.
"Poli, fendu, composé."
- OnlyMatt, French porn star.
I like to be behind the scenes. I'm not the audience. The aesthetic is candid. I work quickly and intuitively. I dont follow patterns but I often find myself repeating things. I've randomly self trained using YouTube videos and IG tips and tricks, but otherwise it's all trial and error like they did before everyone had to get a college degree to be taken seriously. I try not to be a douche about things. I got over myself a long time ago. It's nice when others do the same.
"Professional, reliable and genuinely invested
in helping creators succeed"
-Connor, Load Count Studio
There are artists whose work I like but I dont study them. I don't do research. I haven’t followed their careers. When I see something I like I try to mimic it . I am inspired by nothing but influenced by everything. I’m trying to live between art and content. If you like my work that’s great..If you don't then, oh well, I'm not butt hurt about it.
