Giovanni was the New Yorker at our recent session with six models in the hills above Santa Cruz, California. In or out of his tennis whites, the avid court rat was at home in the rural northern California setting. Find our work with Giovanni here. www.newmanhattanstudios.com/giovanni-california#
The pool’s electric blue became one of our signature backdrops in California. Here, Colby and Alex are caught between takes, waiting for direction. See the full six‑model series: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/cal2026
One of several dancers in the studio's portfolio is Gabriel. From the first time we shot him in California at the age of 23, he's always sported a toned and buff torso, built not with workout regimens, but with his dance routines. Gabriel dances on here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/gabriel-mata
A baker by day, Gabe flew in from Brazil for three sessions, proving you can spend your days elbow‑deep in dough and still look like you stepped off a fitness magazine cover. His diet and workouts trumped temptation— the man stayed carved. Find our work here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/gabe
A band member and singer, we captured Brandon in an estate in the Hollywood Hills. The toned and athletic model took a break from performing to stand still—strikingly—in front of our cameras for an afternoon. Find more of the 24-year-old Californian here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/brandon

We typically let the model choose the studio's background music while shooting. In Stephen's case, we were listening to the actor/singer/model's own voice on Spotify and a song he had recently recorded in tribute to his mother. Find our work with Stephen here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/stephen
Rus encounters the big, round hole in the wall… and immediately treats it like a dramatic stage entrance, strutting in with confidence, sass, and a wink that says he knows exactly what he’s doing. Find our work with the Floridian here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/14011398-rustin
Devon’s gallery is now live on our site. This toned, disciplined Californian has been in front of photographers for half his life, refining an on‑camera presence that’s confident, athletic, and unmistakably his. Check out our work with Devon here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/devon

Tall, 23 and bashful. Mike had only worked with one other photographer in his town upstate. We met him just days after he arrived in NYC, pursuing a modeling career. To our knowledge, he only worked with one other tog before changing career directions to bartending. www.newmanhattanstudios.com/mike

Having young Logan in front of the cameras was like having Pan in the studio—the Greek god of music, nature and the wild edges of the world. Slightly untamed and uninhibited, 21-year-old Logan brought a sharp, mischievous energy to our sessions with him. More: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/loganl
Ricardo is one of the studio’s longest‑running models. We’ve charted the development of his physique from his early 20s into his early 30s, year after year. From a shy 21‑year‑old to one of the most powerful torsos in the portfolio. Follow the full arc here: www.newmanhattanstudios.com/1-ricardo
