An artist in love with creation, Melvin Moten Jr. continually strives to transcend society’s perception of beauty within art.

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.

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 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 I’ve 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.
