photographer&nbsp;<strong>Mario Sorrenti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think today was probably the shoot where I felt like as a person in front of the camera, I just let go the most, and I really think that was because of how much trust I had in Mario,&#8221; Mendes said in a behind-the-scenes video released by Calvin Klein. &#8220;I just trusted him so much that he had this beautiful eye for capturing me in ways that I never felt I&#8217;ve been captured before.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The amazing thing about this campaign is that it&#8217;s just you and the wall, or you and like, a carpet, and it&#8217;s just you and your body and it&#8217;s the most raw and the most vulnerable you can get,&#8221; he said. &#8220;And that&#8217;s, to me, the most beautiful photos and the most beautiful videos come out of that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Other stars who appear in Calvin Klein&#8217;s &#8220;I SPEAK MY TRUTH IN #MYCALVINS&#8221; campaign include&nbsp;<strong>Noah
