I mentioned on my tumblr a few weeks ago that I wanted to start doing some more refined self portraits, mixing an editorial, high fashion style with my gratuitously exposed fat, and this is my first set. What do you think? These kind of images really get me going, I think it's something about how out of place an obese chub looks in this type of setting. It makes me think of a whole studio setup, with a photographer and crew, everyone looking at me all exposed, photographing me, granularly focusing on how I look. I fantasize about the stylist calling hold, coming in like they're going to fix a stray hair or uneven collar, but they adjust the draping hang of my belly, stepping back to critique, calling over the art director and problem solving right there in front of me. "That roll's not showing."/"Can his belly hang any more over?"/"You want it lower?"/"Yeah let's try lower."/"I want the light more angled, we were getting some really clear detail on the cellulite." And I just sit there blushing, blushing, blushing.
