OUR PHOTOS
The beauty of the human
form is especially provocative when grouped together in threes.
Our nude images, complementing the sensuality and intrigue
of the stories, were created during four separate studio shoots
and two independent casual shoots, through the distinctive
eyes of our eight photographers. Our series of landscape and
object-based trinities by Sandra C. Davis
and Christine Ott provide a sentinelled
contrast with the sexuality of the nudes.
Each of our sessions was a unique collaboration with its own
approach and momentum. Yet, for every one of us involved,
though the nudity quickly felt natural, there was both a reverant
innocence and inspiring awe.

Models for five of the shoots reside in Philadelphia,
New York City and South Jersey. The Katz
sessions featured modern
dancers, gymnasts and photography students themselves, who
demonstrated as amazing a skill in choreography as they did
in their physicality and presence.
For the Laub, DeGeorge
and Mongroo shoots we went to
the air waves for additional models. Thanks to Angelo and
his team on WIP's Sports Talk (Philly), DC on WJSE (Atlantic
City) and Kirk, Mark and Lopez on WIYY (Baltimore), we lured
7 radio listeners to expose their bodies and fantasies for
our lens. They proved that talent and gutsiness coincide.
It's not everyday that you get to pose naked with 9 other
bodies on top of a 6-story building in downtown Philadelphia.
Our very first shoot was a test-run in April
2000 in Los Angeles, two years before our last shoot in October
2002 in Philly. Scott Miller
worked the camera and LA friends graciously posed thanks to
the use of Julio's house in Mar Vista, the enticement of John's
cooking and quite a few good bottles of wine. After about
15 minutes in front of the lens, nude bodies entwined under
umbrella-lit ambiance in the transformed art-deco living room
set, someone proclaimed what the rest of us thought, "Wow,
this is like Hollywood." Well, we were just 10 miles
away.
