Until this point, what's your experience shooting and interviewing these Men Over 50? Alan Reade: The men often reveal things about themselves we don't expect. We have the interviews on audio that would make good narration for the photos. Any plan for the project down the line? Alan Reade: If there's enough demand, we'd like to turn these photos into a book. The Advocate: How long has the project been running? Tommy Wu: The project started informally in 2009 when I took a few photos of older men at the gym who I thought bucked the stereotype of being "inactive and elderly." These men were fit for guys in their 30s, not just for men their mature years! I didn't know the photos would turn into a project, but then I started having models approach me as well as approaching other models. Husbands Tommy Wu and Alan Reade started tommy+alan photography in 2009, and Men Over 50 is their flagship project.
