Reception
[edit]I Heart Boy, ranked #5 on The Advocate's "Top 10", “celebrates the androgynous beauty of slim, mostly nude dudes shot with minimalist moxie in New York apartments.[4] New York Press called I Heart Boy "sensual and soft—a weirdly incongruous beauty that isn't masculine in the traditional sense, but unquestionably male."[5] ELLE Magazine also remarked that Yatrofsky’s “photos are a provocative—and, in a world full of Terry Richardson types, much-needed—portrayal of male sexuality."[6]
