David Mecey - Book Of Legs

David Meceys Book of Legs

Photography by David Mecey

As I hope youre already aware, Ive published a number of books over the past several

years of my work. All are an assortment of the types of photography Im best known, that

being photographs of women.

I was a staff and contributing photographer for Playboy magazine for well over two

decades, with me still to this day continuing to pursue photography of women for editorial

and commercial clients worldwide.

I began with my first book, Passion, which was a book of black & white images

photographed with little more than natural light with nudity as its theme. It was a departure

from my years working for Playboy where I would need to light the entire scene from model

to background using a number of strobes. That book was my way to move away from that

style to a more raw or edgy one, which for me was taking me back to my roots in

photography. A time when I first began to teach myself lighting all those years ago.

Next I did my Book of Butts, which is fairly obvious as to its theme, followed by my Book of

Boobs. Yeah, those two glorious items all women possess and on what the Playboy empire

was basically founded.

While I did those titles though, there was always something else rattling around in the back

of my mind which needed attention. That being a womans beautiful face, so I did a book on

faces titled Beauty, which to this day Im still quite partial.

Now, with those other books out of the way, theres still one more portion of a womans

anatomy that needs to be shared. Which, by the way, the editors at Playboy always felt was

my favorite, that being legs.

Yes, I was always known as a leg man at the magazine, though I felt I was capable of

photographing every part of a woman well, the consensus was, Davids a leg man.

So be it, I do love a great set of legs. In fact, I will admit, when I spot a woman and shes

wearing shorts or mini-dress or whatever thats revealing those gorgeous stems, they are

what catch my eye first, no doubt. Next though, its her face, yes, then all the rest. But if I

spot a set of sleek legs, even from a distance, they are the magnet that draws me in to want

to see more.

Here is another loving look at my work, this time devoted to legs, which granted, will reveal

often times those other attributes listed above, stars of my previous books. For a woman is a

combination of all those wonderful items that make them what we men love so much; a

beautiful face, gorgeous boobs, a firm, cute butt and a glorious pair of legs.

So I beg you to savor the work Ive been able to do over the years and ask you to please look

into my other books, as I feel they all contain parts that make women who they are, beauties

all.
