Nude Portraits in Which the Photographer Himself Is Unclothed

For Nude Portraits, Utah-based photographer Trevor Christensen subverts the conventional understanding of the genre by stripping himself—and not his subject—naked before capturing his or her countenance. Making each person is well aware of the artist’s nudity before the fact, Christensen transfers the power back onto his sitters, placing himself in the precarious situation of being exposed, watched, and judged.
