New ‘Hero’ 2 is out

Hey homos, the new issue of ‘Hero’ is out now and available everywhere from Collette Paris to B&N Union Square. The gents at Hero were kind enough to share these two photo stories with us. The first shoot is by Bruno Staub. It’s a black and white sporty-type of story featuring Alexander from Major Model Mgmt Paris and Clement from Bananas Paris—all styled by Jean-Michel Clerc—as the boys carouse Parisian playgrounds on a lazy afternoon (we’ll post those pics later this week). The second shoot (see below) is via photog Matthew Kristall and features Ryan B (B for Bertroche) from Re:Quest and rising star, Joan Pedrola, from Major Model Mgmt New York (he was in BlackBook last month) styled by James Worthington Demolet. Kristall is fascinated by texture and contrasting colorful backgrounds—he did the cover of Issue 1—we especially love the painting of the two older blokes over Ryan’s shoulder in shot 4. Daddy much?
