It is not by now that nudity on the internet is something quite common: just a few clicks and thousands of images appear on the screen of a computer or mobile phone. The point is that many of them are not necessarily professional or tasteful. Noting this gap in the market that Santa Catarina photographer Eberson Theodoro, 36, launched the website fotodehomem.com, two years ago, when the pandemic was still well in the beginning.

The proposal is to publish one frontal nudity essay a week, every Thursday at 7 PM. In addition to the photos, readers of the site can watch videos and erotic GIFs, which give more wings to the imagination. The site already has more than 130 essays, with men considered “standard“, in addition to fat men, thin, with large and also small members, effeminate and with disability. For the photographer, the beauty of photography goes beyond fashion catalogues. “Commercial beauty, which we are used to consuming, remains something beautiful. But we need to open ourselves up to other bodies as well, and between one rehearsal and another I like to show this to my readers”, he points out.

The essays are all photographed and edited by Eberson, who chooses the photos and evaluates with each model if he is also in agreement with the posting. “I have a lot of respect for the image of my models. I never publish a photo that has not been approved by them before”, he points out. The photos take place in Joinville, Balneário Camboriú, Florianópolis, Curitiba, São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. In July he will be in Porto Seguro and in August, Fernando de Noronha. “I want to show the beauty of the male body in other regions of the country”.

Naturalness is the mark of the photographer

Since when the model arrives at the location there is a very simple preparation for the photos to take place in a quieter way. Eberson usually takes a few minutes to talk to his portrayed, in order to create a bond that gives him more confidence to pose in a more natural way. “I direct my models in a very firm way, but they are the ones who bring me the poses, without realizing it. My mission at the time of rehearsal is to be mindful of that. An untimely smile is often far more genuine than a forced pose. Even if for that I need to tell some jokes, even if they are not funny (laughs)”.

Pay to see if there’s that much free stuff?

Essays on the Foto de Homem website are partially released to non-subscribers, but frontal nudity photos are exclusive to the more than 600 subscribers registered on the platform. Anyone of legal age can sign. Just choose one of the plans: the annual, up to 12x of R$15,00 or the lifetime, which gives access to the site forever for only 12x of R$32,50.

Many may think that subscribing to a website to see naked men may not make sense, as there is so much of this stuff available on the internet. But according to the photographer, the great differential of his website is the variety of models and the quality of his work. “What site offers a different male essay, with frontal nudity, every week? In addition, the entire experience of more than ten years photographing naked men is printed in the photos, which are carried out on beaches, rural areas and mainly hotel and motel suites. It’s the angles, the concern with the light and the editing that make all the difference. And of course, the beauty of the hundreds of models that are waiting for you on the site.
