Niko

Niko, a 20-year-old from a small town in western Slovakia, now works as a courier in Bratislava, zipping through the city with big plans to temporarily relocate to Holland to work and save up some cash. He’s an incredibly friendly and open guy, and over the few weeks we spent getting to know each other more personally, he shared some heavy stories from his past. Niko opened up about a tough childhood and even a terrifying run-in with some shady people he suspected were involved in body trafficking—an incident that left him fearing for his life. Despite it all, he remains a bright and optimistic young man, brimming with enthusiasm and a genuinely kind heart.

We first crossed paths at a food court in a Bratislava mall, hitting it off right away. Niko was eager to try a photoshoot, and to my surprise, he even agreed to an “underwear off” audition at my place—something I don’t often get to do with most guys. He was completely at ease, both with me and with being nude, and he loved the camera so much that I occasionally had to ask him to dial back the posing. After the shoot, our bond grew stronger, and he warmly invited me to meet his family and friends. We’re already planning another session soon, hoping for good weather so we can take it outdoors.
