Adam Raphael
Adam Raphael’s ROOM SERVICE is a luxurious collection of 150 photographs of racially diverse male models lounging, bathing, and dining amid the sumptuous interiors and elegant finishes of the finest hotels of East Coast America. The young men of ROOM SERVICE are models of the highest caliber whose flawless physiques are revealed in Raphael’s photographs. Because the models are photographed individually, the viewer is invited to get to know each model intimately. Aged 18 to 26, all of the models, who are both clothed and unclothed, are photographed in repose, playful, and carefree in the privacy of their hotel suites. This stylish presentation of handsome young men in equally attractive hotel settings is designed by J. C. Suarés, and includes spot illustrations by Nina Duran.

This book..just one name's a sell--Evan Wadle! When you see him in this book, all 7 pages of him, you'll never want to give this book up! All of the men in this book--even from the first page--are very attractive, have style and personality..that "swagger" you need to make these types of books actually become real, they know what they're doing and how to do it right. The ritzy, 5-star hotels the men are in make you, the reader, feel as if you're being pampered by these men. There's little if any frontal nudity in "Room Service", but, Adam Raphael's imagination, vision, and just "getting it right" with every photo, I promise you, you won't pay it any mind!

Move over Bruce Weber, there's a new shooter in town! Adam Raphael's work is in what I would call the Bruce Weber school, but the student surpases the master in many pictures. This beautifully bound book (that will actually stay open when you lay it flat) is equally suitable for the living room or the bedroom. Adam's work has a quality and depth that will take your breath away, he has included a variety of body types with a concentration on fitness. Included are some of today's most sought after male models including Joseph Sayers, Paul Tornabene, and Evan Wade. If you pine for the Abercrombie & Fitch Quarterlys of yesterday, you'll be more than satisfied with Room Service.

Boring. I was expecting stories, but it's a very expensive book with just photos of very feminine looking boys.

I've seen lots of photographic art books of the male body, but this one is truly amazing. The lighting is perfect. The color and clarity of the images are crisp and natural. Special praise must be given to the publisher/printer for recreating them in book form.
To say the men are beautiful is an understatement. They make the guys from the old A&F catalog look frumpy in comparison. Two particular models come to mind. One has green eyes that I could lose myself in and never find my way out. Another has the squarest jaw I've ever seen on a human being. The epitome of Scandinavian perfection.
They were all photographed in hotel rooms. The captions for each photo has the model's name along with what room number they were in at the time. I've done only a little traveling in my time, but these hotel rooms represent an order of magnitude of elegance I've never experienced myself.

Yes, the pictures in this book are beautiful... beautiful men, beautiful lighting. But unfortunately there's no frontal nudity in the book -- it's all artfully concealed. So I'd say it's definitely high-quality photography, but unfortunately it leaves me disappointed.
