Question 1

Do I have to be photographed at the studio?

Accepted Answer

No, not at all. I am a studio and location photographer, therefore I can photograph you where you want.

The studio allows for more artistic images, due to the lighting, however for a more natural homely look, many people like to be photographed in their own home, a friends home or hotel room, thereby utilising some of the rooms for a more varied collection e.g. lounge, bedroom, bathroom, hot tub, home gym etc... even the garden if secluded enough.

Other locations could include outdoors in nature (woodland or the beach), a deserted building or any other place you may know of or have access to.

Question 2

How private is the photoshoot?

Accepted Answer

Privacy is VERY important to us.

On the shoot there is only me and the client(s) in the studio unless you have decided to bring someone along with you.

The same goes for if the photoshoot is held at a hotel room, your own home - Other locations settings are also vetted to ensure privacy.

Question 3

Do I have to be 18 years old and over?

Accepted Answer

No, not at all - you can be any age to have a studio or location photoshoot*

These days teenagers and young adults are looking for a more modern and contemporary style of photography, influenced by male portrait images they see on Instagram, TikTok and X (formally known as Twitter), as well as in male life style and fitness magazines.

*However you must be 18 years or older to pose for some style of images (e.g. full nude). 
Anyone under 18 yo must be accompanied by an adult (18 yo or older) - we may also ask for proof of age.

Question 4

Are you exclusively just for gay people?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not!, our main goal is to embrace, represent and celebrate male-focused beauty and body positivity, including; gay men, transgender men, and non-binary individuals.

As a gay-owned business, our target audience is primarily LGBTQ+ identifying, but everyone is welcome. All we ask is that you are respectful of the community we aim to celebrate.

Question 5

Is nudity allowed or required during the photoshoot?

Accepted Answer

Nudity is allowed but it is absolutely not required.

You decide what you want from your photoshoot and the style of images you are wanting, so you’re always comfortable with what’s being photographed. Some people wish to be photographed either partially or fully naked, where others prefer to stay fully clothed. It’s entirely your choice and whatever you’re comfortable with - though you can decide as the photoshoot proceeds and you relax more...

We want you to enjoy yourself and get the most out of your experience – but there are no expectations or requirements.

Question 6

Do you give direction and help with posing?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I give as much verbal direction as possible from start to finish.

My clients laugh when I drop to the floor to demonstrate a pose, but I don't mind!  Of course, all the normal rules of consent apply – you can change your mind and decide not to do anything at any point. I'll simply say "okay," and move on to something else.

If a piece of clothing or hair needs to be adjusted, I will instruct you verbally and will never touch you without permission. My participation in the session is strictly as photographer and nothing else.

If you have sent me some "idea photos" of poses you would like to replicate, we will refer to these as we proceed, so that we use some of your ideas - I will also refer to some from my own collection.

Top Tip
Some of the best pictures captured, are those that are taken as you act naturally and spontaneously through the photoshoot - Be it by yourself as you become more relaxed and aroused, or you and your partner become more intimate with one another.

Question 7

Can I be photographed aroused?

Accepted Answer

You may wish to be photographed fully nude, including while aroused, providing you’re comfortable with this.

You can expect nothing but professionalism throughout your photoshoot.  As like any job I am very much in “work mode” when photographing my clients, focused on creating great photographs – it’s not a sexual situation.

I aim to create a safe, friendly and welcoming environment  where ever the photoshoot is taking place, so that clients can feel comfortable to be themselves, but this will never cross the line into inappropriate behaviour.

Question 8

How long does the photoshoot last?

Accepted Answer

Each photoshoot has an approximent duration time, to allow for changes in outfits, lighting, backdrop etc.., as well as personal arousal time (if required).

• Solo: 1.5 hours
 • Couples: 2 hours
 • Friends with benefits: 3 hours (1.5 hrs per person)

However, each session can be extended either by 30minutes or an hour, if the client feels they need a longer photoshoot.

Please note: Any extended time must be requested at the time of the booking or before the booking date.  On some occasions, the photoshoot can be extended on the day, if you feel you need the extra time (normal extended time fees applies - payable on the day).

30 minute extension £30
60 minute extension £50

Each session is planned with an overrun time of a maximum 15 minutes.

Question 9

Do you only photograph men?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not, I will of course photograph anyone who is looking for the style of photography that I take.

Question 10

Do you photograph couples?

Accepted Answer

Yes, couples are more than welcome, whether you're married or are just close friends.

With a couples photoshoot, you are not only photographed together, you can also have solo photos taken, thereby making up a more varied collection of images.

As a couple, you can be as tactile and sexually active as you like.

Question 11

How many images will I receive?

Accepted Answer

It is difficult to say how many professionally edited photos you will receive in your final gallery, as each clients photoshoot is different in requirements.

However, on average for a standard photoshoot, you can expect to receive no less than 100 high-resolution images to view and choose from.

Question 12

How do I prepare for the photoshoot  and what  should I bring...?

Accepted Answer

If you wish, we can exchange emails or arrange a video call - where we can discuss the type of photos you are wanting, answer any questions you may have about the photoshoot, and explore what clothes to bring etc...

Otherwise come nice and clean and fresh and relaxed as you possibly can be. I don’t recommend shaving body hair immediately before a shoot as it tends to create pimples/shavers rash. Best to do this at least three days before the shoot.

If you have found some images online of type of images you would like to create, then it is a good idea to email them over to me.

(It is always helpful if you can email me example images a few days before your appointment, so that I get a visual idea of the images you wish to replicate).

What to bring
There is no right or wrong answer to this question because it depends the kind of photos you are having - in general most clients are taking clothes off than putting them on...

Consider the style and mood you want for your photos. Are you going for something glam and sexy? Or do you prefer comfortable and intimate?

Here are some outfit suggestions.

• Jeans and t-shirt or jeans 
 • Full frontal casual buttoned shirt
 • Blazer or casual jacket
 • T-shirt/Sports Vest 
 • Underwear (boxers, briefs, jockstrap etc...)
 • Bathrobe
 • Sports clothing (lycra/spandex all in one or shorts)
 • Fetish wear (leather, rubber, pup mask etc...)

You can wear something you already own and love, or you can go shopping especially for the occasion. You don’t have to follow your usual preferences. Maybe you use this opportunity to try something new and exciting.

Question 13

Can I bring someone with me?

Accepted Answer

Yes of course, you are very welcome to bring somebody with you. Please note however due to space and safety, we’d prefer this to be one person than an entourage of family and friends.

Question 14

How do I receive the images?

Accepted Answer

You receive an email from myself with a link to a secure gallery, where you can log in using a unique password and then view, order and download your chosen images.

The gallery is then deleted after 30days.

Question 15

Do you use or share any of the images taken?

Accepted Answer

No, the photos we take are for you and only you. BadRabbit will not use your pictures in any way without your written consent.

All images featured on my website and social media are done so with the client’s knowledge and full permission. I take your privacy very seriously.

If you wish to let BadRabbit use some, then that would be very welcoming. Just message me after you have received the photos and let me know which ones I can use - thanks.

Question 16

Do you only photograph adults?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely Not!

I recognise that there’s a vibrant demographic of individuals under 18 who are heavily influenced by the contemporary, creative, and modern photography they encounter on social media platforms.
Teenagers are constantly seeking innovative avenues for self-expression, whether it’s capturing pivotal moments of personal growth, and stepping outside their comfort zones to embrace new life experiences.

I've witnessed a remarkable shift in the perception of male photography. This evolution towards stylish, artistic, edgy, and contemporary imagery, has certainly caught the attention of the younger generation. They are inspired by young male celebrities, as well as the dynamic content on platforms like TikTok and Instagram, alongside male lifestyle and fitness magazines.

Today’s youth are acutely aware of the power of social media and how a striking photo can shape their self-image, boost their confidence, and elevate their self-esteem.

Enter the PhotoPunk photoshoot—a fun and empowering experience designed to help them see themselves in a whole new light, fostering a greater sense of self-worth. This is especially crucial during those tumultuous teenage years, when many young men grapple with self-identity, self-doubt, body image, and the ever-looming pressure of social expectations.

In a world dominated by selfies and social media, teenagers are increasingly conscious of how they wish to be portrayed in photographs. They crave images that are bold, fun, modern, and a true reflection of their unique personalities.

A professional male photoshoot offers young individuals a safe and supportive environment to express themselves, while capturing intimate moments that will be cherished for a lifetime.
This experience can be incredibly empowering, boosting self-confidence and enhancing self-esteem. It provides a platform for young men to showcase their personality, sensitivity, and vulnerability—free from judgment.

So, let’s celebrate this journey of self-discovery and creativity, one captivating photo at a time!

Question 17

Are you also naked, when taking the photos?

Accepted Answer

In the past I have been asked this by clients, with the main reason being, that they would feel more comfortable and relaxed being naked, if I also was.

I've been a naturist or a number of years, therefore, though it may appear unconventional, I am comfortable working naked, if the client requests it.
