Real Men Real Life (RMRL)

Real Men Real Life (RMRL), a project by photographer John Edward Fink, launched in June 2018, offers a unique perspective on male portraiture. Fink elevates his subjects beyond simple photography, presenting them as living works of art. His approach focuses on capturing the authentic humanity and inherent beauty of his models, resulting in a collection that is both aesthetically pleasing and emotionally resonant. The RMRL community, currently comprised of 72 members (18 paid subscribers), reflects the dedicated following attracted to Fink's distinct artistic vision. Though the project's financial success is modest, generating approximately $79 in estimated monthly revenue, RMRL demonstrates a consistent presence and passion for artistic male photography. Fink's dedication to portraying men in a nuanced and respectful manner distinguishes his work within the adult photography category, offering a thoughtful counterpoint to more commercially driven approaches.
