There have been a lot of androgynous and gender-bending photo shoots done over the last few years, but I don’t think I have ever come across one as erotic as this His + Hers photo spread. An entirely sapphic shoot, it focuses on the lustful seduction of a young ‘man’ by a alluring woman.
Photographed by Michael Donovan, the His + Hers editorial was shot for Creem Magazine. The boyishly thin Jana Wirth takes on the male role with a haircut that will remind anyone of a younger Leonardo DiCaprio (circa ‘Romeo and Juliet’). Natalia Piro plays his equally good-looking seductress. The ballsy editorial features the two models taking their roles quite seriously, giving it their all and holding nothing back in the very sensual scenes that ensue.
