Vintage Inspiration Part 9
Added 2021-06-16 21:01:16 +0000 UTCI love collecting and restoring vintage photos to use as inspiration for my shoots. I wish I could find the photographers of these photos and thank them for having the courage to take photos like these in a time when it was even less acceptable than it is now. There's something about vintage photos that has always inspired me. A raw, naturalistic look that isn't sought after anymore.

I think there is a Greek statue aesthetic which isn't popular any more. I suspect that maybe due to that type of statuary being one the only acceptable forms of male nudity for the longest of times. I prefer the images that the have humour in them. I think that also the men in those images represent what was considered beautiful at the time. I think now a broader range of body types are considered beautiful on a societal level. Plus I can imagine film being quite expensive even if you weren't selling the images on. Whereas we are sort of spoilt with our smart camera phones.

I find I enjoy them even more than the final product because, as you say, the models are being captured candidly, in the moment and off-script. Picture 17 from this collection is the sort that wouldn't look out of place as a production still from one of those. Your analysis is spot on, and thanks for continuing to post these vintage finds!
