Photographer Ames Bex Returns as Transgender Erotica Awards Sponsor

LOS ANGELES—Photographer Ames Bex is returning as a sponsor of the upcoming Transgender Erotica Awards to be held in Hollywood, CA. Bex is currently nominated for Best Photographer and is a two-time sponsor of the event.

"Working so close and intimately with many different people in the trans community has helped me feel comfortable in my own skin and eased my own gender transition during the past year," stated Bex.

Ames Bex is a photographer, videographer and creative director based in New York City. His specialty is erotica and fetish, but he has a strong interest in working with members of his fellow trans community.

He directed Michelle Austin’s Trans Man Adventures 2 as well as parts of 50 Shades of a Tranny.

In June 2015, Bex had his first solo exhibition at the Chelsea Eye Gallery in Manhattan curated by Tracy Von- Becker Legge called "Gorge." The series is a photo journey about food and obsession. In photographing a diverse group of people and food, Bex challenges what we consider "gorgeous." Those interested can find out more about the series at gorgebyamesbexxx.com, and can visit his official website at amesbex.com or follow him on Twitter at @amesbexxx.

The Transgender Erotica Awards, now in its eighth year, celebrates the accomplishments of the trans adult industry and its performers. Due to its growing popularity, the TEAs have been expanded into a three day event kicking off with a daytime TEA Con for fans on Saturday, the Awards on Sunday, and the official After Party on Monday.

The 2016 Transgender Erotica Awards will be held on Sunday, March 6, 2016 at the Avalon in Hollywood, CA. The official After Party will be held on Monday, March 7, 2016 at the Avalon’s connecting property, the Bardot.
