“It’s been six years since the publication of Mark Henderson’s first collection of striking, sensual male photography.
And what a prolific sexennial it has been. What began with Household Idols in 2008 has ripened into a breathtaking series of tomes that includes one extraordinary book nearly every year. The erotic image-maker, by now well known for his skillful use of natural light and dramatic color manipulation, has created a body of work that magnificently showcases pure masculine sexuality in an intimate and highly personal fashion. And he’s done it in a style all his own”
That’s the preface of photographer Mark Henderson’s “best of” collection, Poolside Pleasures. Which all sounds well and good – very arty and sophisticated. But let’s be real here, this book is FULL OF CRUMPET. They’re not all lounging by the pool either, although there is a lot of delicious wet t-shirt shots, as well full nudes taking a sexy dip in the water. There’s beautifully muscled Adonis-types just relaxing around the house, soft, thick cocks resting temptingly on meaty thighs. How would anyone get any housework done with that laying around?
There’s also suited and booted hunks that seemingly can’t wait to strip off their work attire. In fact, most of them are bursting out of them unaided. Enormous biceps, high bubble butts and rippling abs peek out between the smooth lines of sharp suits. It definitely got us loosening our ties, we can tell you that!
This stunning collection brings together 160 glossy pages of highlights from Mark Henderson’s coffee table tomes, including Suburban Pleasures, Poolside and Luminosity, creating one striking and sensual collection you can leaf through on those long, hot summer days, as you lazily dangle your feet into turquoise waters. Or it’s just as good curled up in bed on a chilly night. This sizzling collection will heat you up, whatever the weather. Poolside Pleasures unites the outstanding qualities of Mark Henderson’s best-sellers in a way never before seen: the sculptural grace of Luminosity combined with the sparkle of Poolside and the gleaming light of Suburban Pleasures. Mark Henderson brings last century’s style of nude photography into the present.
