Great boots and leggings for sure

It’s been an interesting challenge. Anybody can photograph a guy in heels and bake it look provocative and confronting. I set myself a challenge of shooting an image, or images, in which one doesn’t at first glance notice the heels although they are in no way hidden. I think I’ve got one that fills the bill. it’s odd for me because as a photographer I’m more comfortable behind the lens than in front of it - and this has nothing to do with being in heels. I wouldn’t mind sharing it with people on this forum but I’m less keen on general circulation.

I’m in !

So true and so disappointing. I’ve been experimenting with shooting images of myself in heels - not posing but looking natural, casual, as though it were not staged, and shot in such a way that the fact that I’m wearing heels is not immediately apparent although the heels are fully visible. It is entirely possible to photograph a guy in heels in such a way that it seems completely unremarkable -

I totally agree with HinH. We are indeed fortunate that mlroseplant appears amongst us both in comments and photos demonstrating that appearing in public wearing high heels and occasionally mixing Items of feminine apparel with his outfits is courageous and socially acceptable, much in the same manner as does kneehighs, casting aside any fear of being stigmatized as deviant. Their examples demonstrate the fact that while wearing items of clothing usually associated with male or females, they are really totally normal people who’s taste happens to include selecting color, shapes and functions not usually associated with males. I, for one, do not pay attention to what clothing fashion designers and models present during their shows. Often I have great sympathy for the models who have to wear these hideous designers creations. At times models must be humiliated and embarrassed having to appear on the runway wearing these unappealing creations. As to this forum, it’s appeal to me (or those of us that frequently login) would totally be diminished should either or both kneehigh or mlrosplant disappear or no longer post comments. Should that happen, given the decline in comments being posted, Hhp might as well pack it in.
