Joe Oppedisano Signs On For Steve Cruz / Mustang Project
I was psyched to see that Joe Oppedisano will be shooting all the still photography on Steve Cruz’s upcoming Mustang film Blue Movie, which begins shooting this weekend.
Like Greg Thompson, Joe’s fashion background (he shot Erik Rhodes for Loehmann’s ) comes through in his work. As a result, his photos don’t end up looking like the typical overly lit, super-glossy porno pics.
Check out what I’m talking about in following image gallery of pics from the three Mustang movies he did (Afterhours, Forced Entry, and Limits) including some of my favorite Andrew Justice and Jake Dakota pics of all time.

Those are wonderful photos. Their subjects aren’t bad either.

Joe is one of the few photographers who captures the RAW SEXUALITY of the subject. His photos of Steve Cruz are the best I’ve seen of Steve. Can’t wait to see the stills for “Blue Movie.”

I own Joe’s book Testosterone (even got it autographed) didn’t know he had a new one and with Steve Cruz on cover I gotta have it!

Joe has used an alternate photo of the guy with the broom, the cigarette he’s smoking is being held by his foreskin, one of the hottest photos I’ve ever seen. I can’t remember where I saw it.

Bo, I know the picture you’re talking about and am trying to track it down; it’s amazing.

Check out the camera angles. It looks like Joe spends a lot of time on his knees in front of smoking hot naked dudes with big dicks. Not a bad way to make a liveing; I’m jealous.

All attractive except the ones smoking…I don’t like smokerst in particular kissing them…

He’s all right but the disgusting cigar is a real deal-breaaker.
Daniel September 17th, 2008 at 10:25 AM
Cigars in porn can be HOT, twinks in porn can be HOT, fisting in porn can be HOT, smooth guys or hairy guys can be HOT. To each his own. Thank god we are able to make choices.

Has andrew justice retired? I hope not!
JT September 17th, 2008 at 12:14 PM
Rather repetitive pics posted – does he simply shoot the models (I use that term with caution) from below all the time?
Yawn.

Isn’t Steve a RS exclusive or something?
TJ September 17th, 2008 at 4:29 PM
JT sounds like a frustrated photographer. Yawn indeed. I LOVE that shot of Rod Barry!

cigarettes are nasty and porn stars smoking them is just gross.
You have to wonder why gay people seem to smoke more than straight people. Especially white collar gay people. I think its lots of self hate.

Mustang needs better directors If I see one more porn with hot performers and all you see is close ups I’m gonna stop watching their stuff.
Tom September 18th, 2008 at 4:20 AM
Anyone who “yawns” about Joe’s work is probably not interested in the emotional impact that a photo can make.

Cranky is a good name you chose.
i bet you havent been near a cock you havent paid for in decades.
speaking of self hate, i guess you know yourself enough to know how miserable you are, hence your screen name.
alexi September 18th, 2008 at 6:48 AM
I believe that, as a performer, steve is still exclusive with RS, but as a director, he has a separate deal w/ falcon. He’s also on a sabbatical from performing, so it may be a moot point.

Who really fucking cares this much??? Watch porn and beat off you idiots.

Steve Cruz is the most overrated person in the business.
Anonymous September 20th, 2008 at 12:21 PM
is it just me? the guy at the very top looks like american idol david cook!
Cranky September 20th, 2008 at 9:13 PM
Hungpig – defensive much? You must be a smoker. Your clothes, skin, breath all stink. Your teeth are yellow. I don’t care what you think.
