About NÆS 02:

Official title: “He Believes in Beauty”

Alternate title: “If my cabin crew colleagues hadn’t been such fucking bores, then I probably never would have ditched them to do photoshoots with random boys around the world, which eventually led me to quit my job at at that fucking airline and make a living from my camera.”

This issue calls back to Liam's origins as a photographer, starting with a teenage dream to be a music video director, moving to a desire to become a fashion photographer and finally solidifying into some sort of career that would express his passion for shooting men whilst travelling all over the world. Liam's ambitions flourished during a brief career as a flight attendant, which enabled his first shoots to take place… There was Diego R and Scotty P who he met during layovers in LAX; there was Danny N, who he met on a trip to Costa Rica; and there were Alan M and Marco R who he found in London. Each of these men allowed Liam to explore his photographic style, capturing a piece of their essences by documenting their bodies and homes.

We also recommend ordering our companion publication, NÆS Ekstra 02, available separately or as part of the ‘bundle’. Inside you'll get to meet an additional twenty-five men photographed during this period of Liam's ‘pre-career’, including hundreds of additional images and behind the scenes notes.
