Guy I'd Like to Photograph (G.I.L.PH)

If I were a rich man and not a DesperateArtist I'd gladly fork over whatever his overnight modelling fee is for a errr... uhm... posing session. Robert Gonzalez is surely a guy I'd like to F I mean Photograph. More here.

Guy I'd Like to Photograph (G.I.L.PH)

 

I am rarely ever into muscle guys this large, but here's one I wouldn't mind being on the receiving end of a private pose down. I'd even be tempted to offer a little extra $$ for the opportunity to rub the baby oil on him myself. I spotted him here. Does anyone know who he is, or where I can see more pics?

???

I do not know who this model is, or who took this photo. But if you do, please leave a comment and let me know. He is amazing!

Ray of light...

 

Ray Armstrong is the type of guy whom I can’t help but to wonder what it must be like to be him. I’ve got to think it must be incredibly easy walking a day in his shoes - being excessively perfect and all. And if I were to ask him mano y mano I’d dare him to tell me otherwise. Nonetheless he’s on my GILPH list (Guy I’d Like to Photograph). See more here.

 

David Lovelace with the tight body and pretty face!

I really enjoy it when my blog readers send me tips and followups on my posts. About a year ago I posted a "GILPH" (Guy I'd Like to Photograph) feature on a pic of this random hot guy I found on the web. I asked you, the readers, to send me a tip if you had any information on the dude in the pic. Now thanks to one awesome commenter I now know the mystery guy is a bodybuilder who hales from Florida and goes by the name of David Lovelace. Want to see more pics? Check him out here. David, if you're out there and you see this, know that you have an open invitation to step in front of my lens. And if you'd like to do a little more than just take pictures, I'm game! LOL. 

Luscious Luciano

His name is Luciano Acuna Jr., and he is one sexy exotic dude from Brooklyn. I discovered him while perusing one of my favorite eye candy blogs. Infatuated, I performed a quick Google search only to learn that he is a model (needless to say) and professional stunt man. I also came across this brief video via my Google inquiry. I’m not really sure what it’s about but it features Luciano and two other hot olive-skinned dudes running around New York performing summersaults shirtless.  

Luciano recently started his own tumblr blog. Let’s hope it features tons of self-absorbed pics. I’m sure none of us will complain. hhmmm... I think I’ll file this post under GILPH.... that is, Guy I’d Like to Photograph.

Chase

(via Manfoto Fan) His name is Chase and he's a Guy I'd Like to Photograph (GILPH). Check him out on ModelMayhem.

Hump Day Hotness

Dude's name is Jeremy D. Henry and he is this week's "Hump Day Hotness" and GILPH (Guy I'd Like to Photograph). Check out his Model Mayhem Profile to see more.

Oh, say can you see...

Do you think the use of the American flag in homoerotic photo art constitutes blasphemy, or does it make you proud to be an American? I guess that depends on whose torso it's clinging to. Singer/Model/Actor Timorris looks pretty damn patriotic to me. He definitely makes my GILPH list (guy I'd like to photograph). Check him out at everythingtimorris.com.

Watching the Gunn

Not that I’m cyber stocking him or anything (here and here), but it looks as though a couple new images of the uber hot James Gunn (a native Clevelander btw) has hit the interweb via his Model Mayhem page. I’m dying to see the rest of this set lensed by Kurt R Brown. I’m guessing by the lack of leaks from the session that it might be for a book Brown may be working on.

GILPH: Ram Kak

London-based model Ram Kak is a "guy I'd like to photograph" (GILPH) and he's just too stunningly beautiful for words. More of him here.

GILPH: The Sikh male

Today, while on my lunch break, I spotted a young, tall, modelesque Sikh man whom I found magnetically attractive. While I was eyeing him up and down from a distance I couldn't help but to think "Man, I'd love to sneak a peek under that turban." I say that in a more than suggestive way, because I'm fascinated by the fact that Sikh men don't cut their hair. I won't claim to know a lot about Sikhs, but I do know that it is an Indian religion not to be confused with Muslims (which is probably what most ill-informed Midwesterners may think when they see these guys with their festive head wrap). 

Sonny Caberwal (featured in this post) is a business man turned model and may very well be the world's first and only Sikh male supermodel. The exoticism of the Sikh has long been on my GILPH (guy I'd like to photograph) list. 

GILPH: Kevin Newby

I have to add model Kevin Newby to my GILPH (guy I'd like to photograph) list not only because of his gorgeous face, but because he doesn't shave his... err uhhmmm.... well let's just say he's au naturel and that's so hawt!

not safe for work

Here's your NSFW post for the day. Remember him? Well, he's become quite hot tottie over at Guys With iPhones and has finally given his fans what we want to see. Warning NSFW.

Kaoz on The Papi Chulo Show - October 6

I am excited that GILPH Kevin Kaoz Moore will be on the Papi Chulo's Blog Talk Radio show on October 6 (10 p.m. EST). Coincidentally, October 6 is my birthday (see how I somehow find a way to make it about me). As you know, I'm a big fan of Kaoz... Perhaps, I'll call in and ask him if he'll make my birthday wish come true and consider doing a MasculineCurves photo shoot? hhhmmm...

GILPH: under the Gunn...

So, perhaps "under the Gunn" is a euphemism for where I'd like to be... lol. You may recall I added model James Gunn to the GILPH (Guy I'd Like to Photograph) files awhile back. As I stated he was the GILPH who got away. That said, I was pleasantly surprised the other day when I logged into my ModelMayhem account and noticed he accepted my friend request (blushes). I think I am officially obsessed with getting him in front of my camera. More here.

 

GILPH: iPhone Hottie

This dude is a frequent poster over at Guys With iPhones, and I ain't complaining. Perhaps part of the attraction is the fact he reminds me of someone I used to know. That said, he definitely makes my GILPH list (guy I'd like to photograph).

 

GILPH: Kevin "Kaoz" Moore

Coming from a small town in central Ohio I didn’t really know any other black gay folk until I moved to Cleveland about 10 years ago. Kevin “Kaoz” Moore, a native Clevelander, was among one of the first I met through my newfound circle of friends at the time. I have to admit, I had a mad crush on him back in the day, but never acted on it. He was a cool, artsy, poet and lyricist and therefore was way out of my league. Kevin eventually picked up and moved to Minneapolis and since then I’ve been sitting back and watching him blow up as an openly gay rapper/spoken word artist. Recently he’s been featured on Rod 2.0 and Black Gay Gossip. I found the BGG interview particularly interesting and revealing.

In the time I knew Kevin from his Cleveland days I never got to see him shirtless. Now these pics are popping up all over the web, and I’m like “dayum!” Brotha is high on my GILPH (Guy I’d Like to Photograph) list. For more Kaoz check out his website. 

GILPH - Model James Gunn

 

I consider James the GILPH (Guy I'd Like to Photograph) that got away. He's a native Clevelander who packed up his bags and headed to L.A. a few years back. With a body and face like this I can't blame him. I never officially met James when he lived here in C-town, but I'd run into him from time to time at various venues and often thought of asking him to shoot with me. Once, I even had the pleasure of seeing his go-go boy routine at one of the local bars. It was damn hot!  But alas it seems as though California has done him well. Since his move, I've seen him pop up in a few Andrew Christian underwear ads, and I'm beginning to spot him on all the eye-candy blogs too (like here). What's even more of a coinky dink is that I'm pretty sure a saw him on Tap that Guy the other day (here). Yep, he's the GILPH that got away. See more of James at his Model Mayhem page.
