About me
"...for years i have watched from the shadows. watched others engage in their sensuality and desires and fantasies. and i had always wondered with awe how they had the courage to do what they did for you, and in front of a camera, nonetheless. it seemed to me not only impossible to find a place of safety to engage in those desires in the first place, but also impossibly wonderful that those moments could be shared with us.

i have finally engaged in my personal sexual journey. and somehow, despite never believing it possible, i have gone to some of those deep places. i have let go and wantonly given in to pleasure. what an amazing experience!

but what i gained from this was really an increased appreciation for what it is you do. because it takes a large measure of trust to let another witness it. and you give those women and men the security and trust to be able to open up to all of us. to give us the opportunity to play voyeur and yearn to know, yearn to feel. and that is a phenomenal gift."

All shoots TFP/CD with shared copyright.  The content of my model release agreement is available on request.  I require all models I work with to sign my release at the beginning of the shoot.  Due to the current legal climate, I ask all models to provide a scan or photocopy of a current photo ID for 18 U.S.C. §2257 purposes.

I frequently use the terms porn and/or pornography when discussing my work.  I don’t do this to “shock” or “offend,” merely to be as upfront about the sexual nature of my work as possible.

I only approve friend requests if we have worked together recently or are planning a future project.

If you're ever down in the DC area and interested in shooting let me know. I also come up to Philly occasionally, and even NY on occasion.

I'm about 4 hours from the city, but if I had enough notice to schedule a couple of paid shoots and find myself a place to flop, I'm definitely up for it.

Your work is exquisite....I can't believe I just used that word, but seriously. Wow. I'd love to collaborate some day, whenever I'm able to start traveling.

Melvin, I love you. Simple but true. Your brilliance inspires and comforts me. You are absolutely such a prize to me. Being able to work with you so much is one of my greatest experiences, only second to being your friend. Thank you so much, both for your artistry and your friendship. I am truly blessed.

Beautiful portfolio. You show real women. That have gone through real things. The stomach with the 1000 strech marks. That is my belly. It was nice for just one moment in time not feel so alone and ugly.

Thank you so very very very much for the most kind words. I can't express enough how much I enjoyed our shoot. Without doubt it is also one of my most cherished times at FetCon. I only hope you do make it back soon. I'll shoot with you anywhere, anytime, anyhow. Thank you.

You work makes me happy. Its big, its small, its scarred, its raw. Not many photographers do this or are willing to do this now a days. Thank you soo much for being part of the few. Its refreshing!

Your work is... wow!

I've seen so many try to pull this type of work off, but doesn't even come close. But, you... indeed do. Fantastic.

I must tell you that your work drives me. I can only think about working harder and dreaming bigger ever since I laid eyes on your photos.

you really capture something here, when i look at these i don't see erotica or porn or whatever i see sincerely evocative images that i like a lot...

I love your unapologetic "no boundaries" approach to fetish art, especially the way you capture strong dominant women at their erotic best!

Your work is absolutely divine.. stark and magnetic, there's a decadence that intensifies with each shot.. very beautifully lit with a delicious plunge into depth and feeling.. perfect. Your portfolio is a joy to view, seriously.

Your work is raw, visceral, beautiful. Everything sex can and should be. Thank you for providing 'fetish' photography that isn't just pretty pictures of pretty girls in expensive clothes, but rather gorgeous dark photographs of the human experience.

your photography and aesthetic are very authentic. i appreciate and identify with much of what you say in your "special note" and "lowdown". great stuff.

A beautiful philosophy matched by a liberated body of work...
Primordial needs are poignant and humane after all... nothing to be ashamed of... in fact the shame is in the shame.

Melvin is my kind of human being - he takes great photos, he takes them for all the right reasons, and he's great to hang out with in person to boot!

Can it get any better?

It can - he's incredibly well versed in arcane (and wondeful) equipment and comes across very well in his written word...

Melvin is one of the best erotica shooters out there; knows what he wants and gets it, period. NO nonsense, just the image is important. More than once he has pointed out something of great importance I overlooked within myself, I needed to improve my work.

Look at his shots, then talk to him about his work and you will know why he is 'that' damned good.

I can easily credit Melvin with the inspiration and encouragement I needed to pursue my own photography and later modelling. I am forever grateful for his friendship and support, unlike any Ive ever known. I also blame him for my toy camera obsession ;) I would walk over hot coals to get in front of his lens. Pity distance stands between us.
His work proves that sometimes stripping away 'technicalities' only proves to show the deeper heart of the subject matter, and touch our emotions on a more heightened level. He is one of the best photographers of our era, in my opinion.
