This guy is only 17 and such a baby but you can just tell that he’s going to grow up to be such a spunk when he gets a few more years under his belt. I do find it disturbing that I find a 17 year old sexy but that is definitely tempered by his age. I want to fast forward him to about 30 and see how he looks then.
You have to admire his discipline and drive. Since filming Twighlight, he’s stacked on 30lb of muscle for the sequel. That’s a massive amount of muscle, especially at that age.
Here’s the behind the scenes footage of yesterday’s shoot with James. Enjoy.
Aussielicious TV – Episode 7 – James the Bodybuilder from Brenton Parry on Vimeo.
The photoshoot today went really well. It was very relaxed, James was great to work with and I have to say, massive muscle aint my thing and damn, he’s got some size on him. The guy is 20 years old! I had a friend come along and video’d the shoot for me so that will be up some time over the next couple of days.
At one point James was posing in his underwear against the graffiti wall when a police wagon stopped in the middle of the intersection (we were on a corner in a fairly busy suburb in Sydney) and one of the cops leaned out the window of the wagon and yelled out “Put your clothes on!” So he did. The guy leaning out his window a few houses down and the family (including young kids) getting into their car all thought it was hilarious fun. The little boy said “Mum, that man is crazy!”
Sounds like a scene from a porno but sadly it didn’t descend quite to that level. We were in a back alley in Darlinghurst, shooting James when these two Mormons came down the alley on their way to harrass enlighten people to the wonderful world of oppression and bigotry in the name of love.
One of them seemed a little too happy to pose with James, while the other one seemed a little scared that he might catch “sinner” if he got too close. The dark haired one even said “we saw you from a distance and I said WOW he’s BUFF”. That was a little unexpected.
Later in the shoot James was in his underwear on a street corner posing when the police asked him to cover up. Oops. The family getting into their car thought it was hilarious.
In two hours time I’ll be wandering alleyways in Sydney photographing a young body builder. He’s in his early twenties and is bigger than I would ever dream of being or want to be, but he’s nowhere near big enough to keep himself happy.
He’s a cheeky shit and it will be a fun shoot. We aren’t doing nudes, a) because he won’t and b) because we are doing them in public streets in the middle of the day on the first day of a long weekend. It’s a very simple setup, sunlight, beefcake, camera. Oh and another friend is coming along to hold the reflector if i need it and to video it for an episode of Aussielicious TV.
Who says muscle boys aren’t very bright? This guy has an incredible body but according to him, one bicep is bigger than the other. His left one is 16.5 inches around but the other one is only 16 and 2 quarters… WHAT???
Hunter is from All American Guys… hot!
Today I finally got around to editing the footage of the other 3 guys having their shots done at last week’s shoot, along with the group shots at the end. Sadly these guys didn’t pose naked, or I would have given strict instructions on underwear. It’s a fairly long episode this one. I’m going to have to learn to be more brutal with the editing.
Update: I’m sorry. I didn’t realise I’d set it to private. It should be public now!

If you’ve seen the post below you’ll know that I was trying my best to appear professional yesterday morning while feeling an overwhelming urge to go to the gym and eat chicken breasts and protein shakes and at the same time just sit and stare at the muscle on the stripper boys I was photographing.
I had been under the impression that the guys were all going to be photographed nude, but apart from Andy, they all kept underwear on. If I’d known that, I might have given them some rules on the underwear but I think the shots all came out really well.
Andy was up first and was a good warm up for me. We are mates and very comfortable together. He’s probably one of my favourites of the guys I’ve ever shot to this day as he’s so relaxed.
Then I shot Marco, the bigger of the two brothers. He is freaking HUGE. After the shoot we all went for breakfast and this monster ate an EIGHT egg omelette!
Jeremy is Marco’s “little” brother. Poor thing could only manage a SIX egg omelette. His body I think is my favourite. It’s big but not huge.
Vince was a sweetie and probably the least relaxed in front of the camera. For a bunch of straight guys posing for the first real shoot, with a gay man behind the camera, they were all really enthusiastic.
Here’s the four of them together. These shots would have been great had they been nude, but I still like them. I’ve told them I’ll shoot them again any time they ask.
I’m making this a bit of a video day. Today’s workout is my least favourite out of the four days and it’s also my training buddies least favourite as well. Him, because it’s legs and he’s had problems with his knees, and for me because it’s also shoulders and I don’t seem to be very strong in the shoulders. Having said that, I’m enjoying workouts at the moment and the lead up to mardi gras and my vanity seem to be combining well to motivate me to get out of bed.
This video could inspire or it could depress people. I’m using it for inspiration. Less than 7 weeks out from the Mardi Gras parade I’m kicking my training into high gear. Higher than what it has been wouldn’t be hard with a month off over the holidays but I’m actually even being quite good with what I’m eating. A girl at the gym is writing me up an eating plan that she’s promised will be easy to maintain (that one I’ll keep you posted on).
My training partner at the gym has agreed to go back to a routine that we did for too long but have had a break from for a few months now. It’s an effective one and more importantly one I enjoy.
I have to say, this video would suggest that men these days don’t have body hair at all. I know it’s all about the definition for the photos etc but as I get older I don’t mind a bit of hair on a man. This video is the top 15 guys featured on All American Guys in 2008.

There’s no other reason to post this video, other than it’s just full of the delicious Leighton Stultz.
Good Monday morning to you all!
I have to admit that I’m usually not that turned on by the mega muscled kinda guys but something about this guy really pops my cookies. He’s Brazilian Carlos Tomaiolo, winner of the 2006 Garato Fitness Contest and new cover boy for A Capa in very nearly all his glory. He appeared to me in a vision this morning, well, on Made In Brazil anyway. I would feel very comfortable curled up in his arms.
Being Brazilian, I can only hope that the next step is for him to pose nude and hard for G Magazine. Fingers crossed, legs open!
Don’t you love it when muscle guys land in your lap? Sadly they just landed virtually, not really. The guys from Mega Muscle have beefy model boys for all occasions. This is just a delicious mixed entree to their full buffet.
