Eduardo

It's not what you know - it's who you know.

The older I get, the more truth I find in that particular observation.

And that's especially the case in my line of work.

Photography.

OK, I'm technically pretty proficient.

I know about color balance, depth of field and how to use a filter to help turn a spotty kid into a young Tom Cruise.

But to an HMBoys-type photographer, that's all far less important in being successful than getting a regular supply of ready, willing and able boys in front of your lenses.

And the best way of doing that is by using your mouth.

(Oops! Word of mouth is what I meant to say there.)

Let me give you an example.

Eduardo.

Now he's the sort of boy who'd never have responded to an ad in a paper.

And he'd have run a mile if you'd approached him in the street.

But get one of his friends to give him an idea of how to make some spare-time cash and, well, it all becomes a very different story…

The friend in question was Josiah. You remember him - the oyster-boy, as I liked to call him, from a few weeks back.

And, for an odd bonus or two, Josiah was more than willing to sound out some of his friends, though, of course, he didn't at that stage go into - how shall I put it? - the full details of what might be required of them.

That's how Eduardo turned up at my place for the first time.

Now some boys, when they first visit me, are so psyched up that they're almost out of their clothes before I've even shut the door behind them.

But Eduardo definitely fell into the opposite category - at least to start with.

Hell, for a few minutes he wouldn't even look in my direction while I was setting up the shoot.

He just kept looking outa the window as if that's where he'd much rather be…

But suddenly - and I was still fiddling with the camera tripod and hadn't said anything to him - it seemed he made up his mind.

He looked back over at me and quietly said "OK, sir, I'm ready now."

And after that he was fine.

In fact, he was better than fine.

He was positively enthusiastic.

He slipped outa those jeans as easy as pie.

And it was pretty obvious, by that stage, that he'd become not only enthusiastic but also pretty excited by what was going on.

At least, that's the impression I quickly got.

The rest of our afternoon together was fantastic.

Sometimes a first shoot with a novice model can be a disaster and you end up with nothing at all you can use.

But Eduardo was like a pro from the beginning.

Want a stiff dick?

You got it.

Want an ass shot?

No problem.

Want insertion?

Anything you say…

A cum shot?

Well, I might decide to make you wait for that...

Unless, that is, you're a cute 18 year old who wants to become one of my special friends…

'Cos, just like I say, it's not what you know, it's who you know…
