hello,
I am wondering if you can help me out.
I am a professional photographer currently working on a project looking at the changes in relationships and romance within the 21st century. One of the aspects Im interested in is that of the male escort and the lifestyles led by yourself and others in your profession. What interests me most are the ideas of emotional connection and the creation of identity in your relationships. The building of emotional connections is something we all do in our everyday social experience but it plays a vital role when it comes to more intimate relationships. Identity is also a very fluid experience between one partner to the next and is important as a way of self protection and in developing our relationships.
 Now i will be completely honest with you, I am looking for male escorts who would be willing to let me photograph their lives in an effort to describe these ideas. I have no wish to intrude and make your life difficult as I understand that discretion is extremely important within your line of work. The body of work I am looking to create is going to be sympathetic in its nature, I have no wish to be judgmental or cynical, I am just interested in photographing another aspect of life and love in the 21st century.
 This body of work would be a document of your life, that would mean me visiting you on a number of occasions over the next 2 months to document the varying aspects of your life. The one thing I am not asking is to photograph you with your clients, that is your work and i have no desire to interrupt that side of your life. I would like to be able to photograph around your meetings with clients, as in I would like to be able to photograph you getting ready, going to meet your clients and afterwards. This project would also mean me being able to spend time with you at your home.
 I can understand that this may sound very strange and I also realize that I am asking a lot of you, if you are interested then I hope you understand that this purely voluntary on your behalf as i cannot afford to pay you for your time and even if I did it would go against the ethics of my project.
 What I will offer are copies of the images that i take and also due to the discretionary nature of your profession I am willing to let you have a say in the final editing of the images, as in what i can use and what I cannot use for the project.
This project is not intended to be published as yet, as it is part of a larger ongoing project, but if at anytime in the future it would gain the chance to be seen by a wider audience then again I am willing to let you have your say on what if any of your images are shown, but this would be a long way off.
 I hope that you are as curious about this as myself and are willing to take part, even if your not any information you would be willing to pass onto me would always be useful.
If there is anything more you would like to know then please ask me as I am happy to answer any questions you may have.
Thank you.

Indeed.

If you are determined to try, and don't mind getting some rude comments, try asking in the relevant bit of gaydar.

hello

I would be interested. 
One thing that would help decide is seeing some of your work, and as well having more informations about who it will be shown to / how ... what is the final aim of the project?
thanks
