Carnivores + Destructores is a self produced series. My subjects are obsessed with the singer Morrissey and I documented the various dimensions of their obsession.

  • Nice one (Score:1, Interesting)

    This is the singer from the Californian Smiths/Morrissey tribute band.

    I met him on their UK tour in 2001. A thoroughly decent man.

    If all it takes to be a lookalike is a devout obsession and undying love, then I must be humping rocks in death valley.

  • Truly great portraits of truly great men. Some familiar torsos and quiffs here. These are really superb shots. I think this is great. Are they due to be published in book form? And is that "Chaynne is the name" in the blue motor? Looking good kid!
    Yeah, I'm really quite taken with these. Lovely colours, nice. Beautiful even.

  • One thing is to see is middle age Morrissey without a shirt but to see Maldonado without a shirt is really, truly disgusting. Please Jooosé, you are soooo not sexy. Put your shirt back on, you pervert.

  • Great photos Adam! (Score:2, Insightful)

    As Adam explained, he is not trying to find lookalikes if not people influenced by Morrissey. I think they are very good portraits. The artist and models deserve some respect. I found the insults childish and extremely coward. A real Morrissey fan wouldn't be unrespectful to others. You are even scared of writing your names.

  • The headline shouldn't be lookalike. It should say something more the lines of ("For 10 cents a day u can help Jose Maldanado eat a bag of chips or have a t-shirt, for 10 cents a day you can help this child").

    lighten up, morrissey!
  • Why on earth is Jose Maldonado without a shirt on. Seriously Jose, you're not Morrissey and your obsession is becoming disturbing. Go ask your wife if she wants to bang you anymore looking like Morrissey. She's probably more depressed because of you whoring around with the skanks at shows. Whatever!

    As for the other goons in the shots, seriously? One looks like the Mexican Kool-Aid man and the next like a Bizarro version of whatever he's going for. And don't even get me started on the dyke! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhitttttt that's ugly.

  • If I looked half as good as Jose I'd be thrilled. Lay off him. He looks fab as do the rest of the models. It's the old "someone dares to do something different so lets crucify them".
    The ugly comments from most people on here are shameful.
    Jose is a top guy: lifeguard! Singer! DJ! Among other talents.
    Jose runs marathons. The detrators among you run bullying campaigns.
    Most of you won't put your name to the comments - cowardly but expected.

  • Wow, I am really thrilled by the great photos on your website, Adam! Not only the Morrissey-Fan-series, but also your other photos (alligators!). Really outstanding!!!

    So sad the Morrissey-Fans here can't appreciate the quality of your photos, because they think it's about lookalikes...

  • why would he have a Morrissey photoshoot on his site? its full of everything Morrissey hates! like cruelty to animals, there are some dead gators on his site. Honestly anyone who features that as part of their portfolio should never mention Morrissey's sacred name. fuck you and dont mention Morrissey on the same site as one that showcases the killing of animals

  • People are so quick to be critical from the convenience and anonymity of their computers. How can we hate on people who love Morrissey when that's why we're all here? I mean, Moz is always on the side of the underdogs, the hated, the misunderstood, the unloved, the disrespected... Has everyone lost sight of that?

    Jose is a really good guy and I am proud to call him a friend. He is a talented performer, musician, DJ, marathon runner, and life guard. He's doing exactly what he wants with his life. We should all be so lucky!

    I'm thinking:- "Morrissey's not interested
