Drawing inspiration from Richard Gere’s 1980 movie American Gigolo, Ryan Mertz stars as a man who plays for pay in the editorial ‘Gigolo’ by Nicky Emmerson. The story is one of three Ryan/Nicky editorials in the first issue of Emmerson Hodge, a new magazine created by photographer Nicky Emmerson and art director Ashley Hodge. The issue is dubbed ‘The Mertz Issue’ and it’s ALL about Ryan.
