NFTs, Uncensored Nudes & Prints 🥳
🕑 Added 2022-05-29 14:27:32 +0000 UTCHey there lovelies! (public post)
I've been busy doing many different things, and I realised it's time for a public update, and it's actually been almost a year exactly since the last Patreon public update, so we're gonna be slightly long today (plus there's an extra post with nudes for the £5+ patrons coming straight after this!).
HERE WE GO
1. I'm now (also) an NFT photographer
I entered the NFT space in Sep 2021 with my project 'Dancers on Rooftops'.
Made it into a 1 of 1 collection and since I wanted more pieces than what I had in my existing archives (about 20 photos), I started creating new work, 10 years after I started the project in London in 2012.
38 pieces are 'old', created between 2008 and 2016. All pieces from #39 upwards were created in 2021 and this year.
Currently, there are 49 pieces in the collection. 38 are sold with some available on the secondary market. 10 of the unsold are available for sale now.
There are currently 49 minted pieces and I'm planning to drop 74 NEW ones in the coming weeks!
How special will these 74 be?! They'll be selected out of 34k+ photos taken during 17 sessions with 21 different dancers in Greece, Finland, Mexico and Israel in 2021 and this year! 🥳
You can view / shop the collection on OpenSea.
2. Twitter and Discord
2 more places I've been pushing especially since entering the NFT space are my Twitter account and a new Ben Hopper Discord server.
If you're on either of those, please join me there: Discord / twitter.com/BenHopper
3. Instagram
I'm still active on my IG, especially with daily stories and especially when I travel. This is probably the best place to keep up with what I do; instagram.com/benhopper
4. 'Ben Hopper Uncensored' Telegram channel
In reaction to IG's nudity censorship, I started a free Telegram channel where I share uncensored nudes on a daily basis.
You can join here: Ben Hopper Uncensored
5. More fun on daily nudes + discussion on FetLife
Another fav place I've been sharing a lot of nudes recently is FetLife.
FL is a social media for the BDSM / Fetish / Kinky community.
If you're into kink or into my nudes and don't mind seeing (sometimes challenging rather sexual) nudes that others share, you're welcome to open an account and connect with me there:
6. PRINTS of 'THE BLACK AND WHITES (Some More)'
In the past weeks, I got the urge to share all of the nudes from my 2012 London exhibition 'The Black and White (some more)' on my Telegram. A few people asked me for specific prints and I figured that it might be nice to go a little extra.
I spent 2-3 days fetching all of the RAW files and now, 10 years later, I've re-edited them all (like a fresh Remaster), and for the first time, I'm making them available on my online shop as Open Edition prints in A sizes; A1 £200, A2 £100, A3 £50, A4 £35, with £6 tracked international shipping only! Btw, the reason they're quite expensive is that they're made on archival museum quality C-type prints. The colour lasts for 100 years and they're the best quality prints out there.
I consider these 38 images (2007-2012) some of my favourite early black and white photographs in my founding body of work.
You can find them all waiting to be purchased here: 'THE BLACK AND WHITES (Some More)' Open Edition 🎉
(I'm not sure how long the Open Edition prints will stay on my shop, might discontinue Open Editions in the near future)
On the main shop's page, you can choose to browse all Open Editions or see what's available for London pickup from my 'Previously Exhibited Discounted Prints'
All Open Edition prints are automatically sent to my London printers and shipped within a day or two using a worldwide tracked courier service for £6 only! :) 🙌
PS if you have a fav photo of my work and you want a print of it but it's not on my shop - pls DM me here / on Instagram, or email me (info@therealbenhopper.com) with the photo you want, and I'll make it available for you.
7. Website and more links

I will share more future plans and updates very soon but for now, that's it. I hope you're well ...and thank you for being around 🤩
Much much love,
Ben 💞
