'Flesh Love All' is actually a commentary on love, says the photographer.
Each shoot takes about two weeks to plan.
The actual shoot lasts about 10 seconds, so as to prevent suffocation.
A total of 13 couples and families are featured in the current 'Flesh Love All series', with plans to add more.

The series has travelled to 14 exhibitions around the world, including Taiwan, Switzerland, Italy and Slovakia.
Photographer Hal started his 'Flesh Love All' series in 2016, shooting subjects across Japan.
The artist says he can only do a few shoots a year as weather and wind have to also be factored in.
Plastic used in the wraps are reused and then recycled.
The artist, who prefers to be known just as Photographer Hal, says his name is inspired by the sentient computer from Stanley Kubrick's seminal film '2001: A Space Odyssey'.
Photographer Hal says he started his series by asking the question 'Why do human beings love each other?'.
