Synopsis

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.
