Wiana in Gold

As you may know, I recently conducted two very successful workshops in Lanzarote. I had booked a fantastic house with nice architectural features for the models and myself. But on the last day ther...

Sunlit Studio - BTS

9 min BTS video from when shooting Wiana

Sunlit Studio

These are from my first shoot with Wiana, which I have never edited.

It was at my friend's advertising photo studio with huge windows and a high ceiling, so we used the space and windows to f...

Sunlit studio BTS teaser

I don't usually post BTS movies for all tiers, but with this short clip, I thought I'd make an exception. Enjoy.

A study in white - BTS

BTS shooting Krisowitz on and in the bales.

A study in White

Sometimes I like to play with conventions, and here I wanted to do the opposite of my normal go-to editing:

Instead of darkening the background to draw attention to the model, I decided to g...

Double Poppy

I have a lot of lovely images with Poppyseed, and here are two of them, from different occasions:

The first was shot near a mansion with a 24-70mm (at 70mm) ƒ. 2.8 to get a low depth of fiel...

Posteria Study

The gorgeous Celia Cassiel, no less gorgeous posteria, deserved a study, so I made one.

In the booty chair, obviously.

Which of the five images is your favorite, and why that one...

The matching shoes

And before you ask; No, we did not color coordinate this set, but it was fun that the shoes and sofa matched.

Light is identical to what I used for Stella (Published on Nov 23rd...

Playstation

Here is a nice set from my last shoot at Arsenic with Fatima attempting to get the PlayStation to work. Or whatever that thing is, I didn't look that closely as something distracted me 😅.

...

Black and white

These two images were created in precisely the same spot in a large daylight studio:

In the first image, Caroline has a black background, and I’m shooting from the opposite side of the seco...

Lounging with Stella Di Plastica

A super easy setup in my studio corner:
I placed a layer of diffuser foil in front of the window to give me a very directional yet soft light.

Believe it or not, but whether you diffuse o...

Naomi NSH

Here is an old set with Naomi with dome direct sunlight shining through a window - and on one with a fringe curtain in front of the model.

The light triangle and the “woodcarving” ...

Lumo Meetup

I went to this TFP model/photographer meetup near the end of summer and shot two sets with two models I know there and a group shoot.

The meetup is not conducive for shooting nudes if the mod...

Acro Yoga (and variants) - BTS

BTS from shooting the AcroYoga image, and a lot of other variants (44 minutes)

Couch Surfers - BTS

BTS from the couch surfers image.

Couch surfers

This is a gorgeous set from my first big Danish group shoot with some fabulous ladies.
It was a “How many people can we fit into a sofa?"

This was lit with a 7’ Westcott Umbrella fro...

AcroYoga failure

I was in doubt about whether or not to show you this, as I’m not happy with it:

It’s one of those things that bite you when you don’t do it right initially, and I've decided to tel...

Jitka and Chester

Jitka V is a Checz model who came to Denmark to shoot with me about a month ago.

It is also one of the first sets published in my revamped “boudoir corner” of the studio.

I used to ...

Ivalu’s windows

Sweet Ivalu, a Greenlandic model dropped by the studio for our second shoot.

She was also kind enough to help me figure out some settings for shooting video on my Sony cameras, which c...

On the Rocks

Zsan of Sweden is doing her thing “on the rocks.”

I had the pleasure of shooting with her for over four days this summer, and there are loads more images to come.

The first two here...

On the Rocks - BTS

Zsan of Sweden is doing her thing (for 19 minutes).

Dune walker (Fremen?)

Roarie Yum on some petrified dunes in the middle of nowhere (White pocket in Arizona to be specific).

The very blue rocks are due to the very low light and, at the same time, very blue sky at...

Turning up the heat

A couple of shots from a previous workshop with Wiana and The Endless Sinner at the old heating central near my studio compound.

The first image was shot at ISO 400 using flash; the ot...

Heart of gold, booty of flesh

CB modeling and a booty-study (that's my new favorite word btw.) in natural light in nature.

Nothing much else to say:

When I shoot on location, I do, of course, look at potential backg...

A Couch in Vegas

Roari Yum lounging on a couch in the Airbnb I rented for the last night's stay after spending 10 days in the desert with her, while shooting the first half of my 2024-11-13 15:00:17 +0000 UTC View Post

Night and day

Nat Damsgaard is working on her handstand abilities in the low evening sun.
And the poses do justice to her posterior.

The light is direct sunlight streaming in through the window ...

Night and day - BTS

13,30 min of the gorgeous Nat

Cobra Arch

I'm unsure if this stunning formation is officially known as Cobra Arch, but the moniker fits.
 In this shot, my friend Zulema strikes a pose just beyond the shadow cast by the arch, adding...

Valentina.Art at The Kiln

I had the pleasure of hooting Valentina at The Kiln.

While I do like the studio, it requires a lot of post-processing in some areas.

You'll see below what I mean.

When I retouch,...
