There are no statues, or stale unsmiling, motionless young men looking bored to death in Adam Raphael's new book, of young, hunky, and handsome men, aptly titled "Barely Working". It's a great title for a book of images featuring some of the best looking guys in America who are photographed working on various outdoor building projects, and having a great time on the job. The group shots of the guys are unusual as most male photography books of this nature do not bring a group of guys together in one place interacting, but usually show just images of men alone normally. These young hunks are barely working, for all work and no play is certainly NOT the case in these beautifully photographed shots. It so nice to see smiling faces for a change as the models are working, playing and talking. These guys are relaxed in front of the camera, seemingly not even aware of it, and the credit for that belongs to Adam Raphael. I thought Adam Raphael's last book "Room Service" would be hard to top but he has shown again what an innovative and dedicated photographer can do. The coloring, lighting and shadows in these images is pleasure to the eye.There's no full nudity in these images, but in no way does that deter from the sexy, and artistic beauty of these young men captured at the peak of their physical perfection. In fact, it adds to their mystique and allure. Adam Raphael has captured the beauty of these men and to our benefit he allows us to share in his work and world of beauty. This will be one of the books on my top shelf of male photography books, which will be enjoyed and treasured for years to come. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars no variety *by T***. on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 5, 2021* good quality photos, but these well built, hairless, young guys all look alike. even their own mothers would have trouble telling them apart. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars Barely Working *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 12, 2012* My second photography book from this photographer/artist. Again it was so so - I think when photographing the human form it should be surreal or edgey. This book was like his other book, "Room Service," Just boring photos of shirtless Frat boys... --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/18734191-barely-working-hardcover-august-7-2008](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/18734191-barely-working-hardcover-august-7-2008) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-05-11*
