M8E is looking for adult men interested in participating in an editorial photography project exploring the penis, masturbation, and solo pleasure.
M8E is a documentary media project. Sessions are designed to capture authentic moments rather than staged performances. You don’t need to be a professional model. You don’t need previous experience. What matters is that you’re comfortable participating and interested in being part of the project.
M8E works with adult men 18 and older who are comfortable participating in intimate, adult photography. You don’t need a specific body type, look, or modeling background. M8E is interested in real men and individual experiences-not a single idea of what a model should look like. All participation is voluntary, and boundaries are discussed before photography begins.
Every session begins with a conversation about the project, what you’re comfortable with, and what you can expect. We’ll talk through boundaries and the types of images being created before photography begins. During the session, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, pause, change direction, or stop at any time. The photography may include the body, nudity, the penis, masturbation, and solo pleasure depending on what you agree to participate in. There is no requirement to perform beyond what you have explicitly agreed to.
Your comfort comes first. Before a session, we’ll discuss what you’re comfortable photographing and what is off limits. You can say no to any image, pose, activity, or direction.
Consent is ongoing throughout the session. You can change your mind, take a break, or end the session at any point.M8E does not pressure participants to do anything they are uncomfortable with.
Before participating, you’ll review and sign the appropriate model release and consent documentation. The release explains how photographs may be used, including editorial, promotional, website, social media, and other M8E-related purposes. You’ll have an opportunity to read the documentation and ask questions before signing anything.
Do I need modeling experience?
No. M8E is not looking exclusively for professional models. The project is about authentic people, individual experiences, and documenting real moments.
How old do I have to be?
All participants must be at least 18 years old.
Do I have to be completely nude?
Not necessarily. What you participate in is discussed beforehand and is based on your individual boundaries and the scope of the session.
Can I set boundaries?
Absolutely. Your boundaries are discussed before the session and remain important throughout the shoot. You decide what you are and are not comfortable participating in.
Can I stop during a session?
Yes. Participation is voluntary. You can pause, change direction, take a break, or stop the session at any time.
What happens during a session?
Each session begins with a conversation about the project, expectations, and boundaries. Photography is then guided by the agreed-upon scope of the session. There is no requirement to perform beyond what you have explicitly agreed to.
How will my photographs be used?
Your model release will explain the permitted uses of your photographs, which may include editorial, promotional, website, social media, and other M8E-related uses. You will have an opportunity to review the release before participating.
Can I ask questions before applying?
Yes. If you have questions about M8E, the photography process, boundaries, consent, or how your images may be used, you can contact M8E before submitting an application.
Do I have to participate if I apply?
No. An application is simply an expression of interest. Participation is discussed and agreed upon separately, and you are never obligated to participate.
What happens after I apply?
M8E will review your application and contact you if the project appears to be a good fit. Additional information, scheduling, boundaries, and consent documentation will be discussed before any photography takes place.
