Ty’mel W.

Me and Ty’mel met a few months ago at a college basketball game. I didn’t think about doing a new shoot with him then, but I saw him a couple of months ago at our local community day. When I saw him, I immediately went up to him and started a conversation. At that point, he mentioned that he would be working at the local summer camp, training. He also expressed that he was looking for another way to make good money this summer. I started brainstorming ideas, and then it hit me. Maybe he could model for K.KB, lol. But I didn’t know how to introduce the idea of nude modeling to him. So, I asked him if he would be interested in modeling. He said, “Okay, I would love to,” but what kind of modeling? I explained that it was nude modeling, and his facial expressions really threw me off at first. But then he gave me a slight smile and laughed. He said, “I’ve never done it before, but sure.” From there, we made magic happen.
