Here’s something special for all you fitness model lovers – sexy hunk Shane Smith by Rob Kristian in some previously unreleased images. As they both reside in Phoenix, Arizona, photographer Rob Kristian has photographed Shane some five times. The pictorial below shows photos over the years from various shoots.

Rob is a Utah native, who has resided in Arizona for nearly two decades. The “fitness meets fashion” photographer was self-trained, originally shooting still lives in the desert with his Minolta film camera. Over the last four years, Rob has shot digitally. His mentors are Jorge Freire, Luis Rafael and Michael Downs. His work has appeared in over 20 book covers and in blogs like INtense and Vanity Hype, where he shot a spread of Bryant Wood in the Feb, 2014 issue.

Model Shane Smith, 22, is a certified fitness trainer and the middle of three brothers. Older brother, Sean, is also a model. A man of high drive and determination, Shane has shot with Freire, Rafael, Downs, Pat Lee and Alan Spiers. He has been on the cover of Wire Magazine and French publication, Mmensuel. Shane is originally from Texas but calls the Phoenix area home.
