Church Light BTS movie

Here you can easily see the challenges with the light shooting this setup.

Church light

A few more images with Carillon doll from the abandoned church in Milan.
The light here was direct sunlight streaming through a window and hitting this small alcove. Or rather, as you can see in...

Posh light BTS

A btw movie with the fantastic Minka Model

Posh light

I finally had an opportunity to shoot with Minka Model last month, and all I can say is WOW. We were a near-perfect fit and created some stunning imagery.

I had just wallpapered my lounge are...

Walled garden

Rebecca Perry and I snuck into the garden of this little finca a couple of years ago while in Mallorca.

All natural light in the shade gives some beautiful light.

I seldom use reflector...

Loulou

This is Loulou on one of the same structures as yesterday’s post.

Can you tell from this image that Loulou does Yoga?

The Fortification BTS

20 min BTS with Gitte

The Fortification

I shot with Gitte (G.Rasmussen_model) a few times 6-7 years ago before she slipped into the corporate world of TV production.
But about a month ago, she left all that behind and started to mode...

Loulou on the Beach

This is Loulou Models shot around my Mallorca workshop this summer.

She brought the necklace to have some images for a friend who makes them, so this is me making necklace promotion images fo...

General rehearsal

Before going to Lanzarote and shooting my Art Nude...

Dovile's Ottoman

This is Dovile and a set on my studio, Ottoman, used in various ways. It’s lit with a 57” Westcott Zeppelin with a soft grid.

Do check out the Discord Bonus material!

And the Behind...

Ashley in Sun

A couple more shots with the fantastic Ashleigh Rae.

It may be her first time shooting nudes, but as you can see, she is no stranger to projecting and posing—sunlight in the abandoned contr...

Krisowitz on gold

I recently had the pleasure of shooting with Krisowitz, another Danish model I’ve never previously shot with. 

We’ve tried to arrange a shoot for some time, but life kept getting in ...

Criss Cross BTS with Wiana

12 min BTS with Wiana

Criss-Cross

These are from my first shoot with Wiana Model, shortly after I acquired a Westcott focusable spotlight with various gobos. 

This was one of my first attempts working with it.
And fr...

Katya Clover in Sweden

A nice little Flashback to a trip with Katya Clover to Sweden.

It’s an open shadow, so the entire sky from one side works like a massive softbox. 

She is an excellent model, by t...

Loulou models is the boss

Louise projecting Summer and Boss Lady on the Watch Tower (Torre Volger on Mallorca).

Straight sun early morning, shot with a 16-24mm.

Slight cheat: I moved and elongated the contrail f...

Sacrificial Lamb?

This is from my Mallorca summer workshop with Wianamodel, and The Endless Sinner and Loulou models. We were working in a derelict church ruin.

One of the models had found a large slab of bric...

Real life Jenga BTS

19 min with the gorgeous DIxie frolicking on a real life size Jenga game 😜

Real life Jenga

Dixie and I tried to play full-size jenga.

Unfortunately, she couldn’t move any of the blocks, and since she was ...

Herodiade in the sun

Another “straight sun” on the fantastic Herodiade.

One thing to take away from this image is how effective shadows can be in creating an environment of what is essentially a white wall. I...

Mini Moria

Belzen model, the Danish model whose rear-end I introduced you to at the beginning of the month, from a small cave in Sweden.
All natural light comes in directly behind the camera.

Hit th...

Unbearable lightness

The fantastic Dulce Mara in my studio Backyard. It’s really full sun, but the walkway in this particular place is shaded by leaves on the trees, so I’m left with the beautiful soft light from t...

Tan Shadows

A walk on the dark side with Wiana Model from shooting 2023-10-10 13:59:00 +0000 UTC View Post

Dark Abstractions

The Gorgeous Nausicaa Yami frolicking in black sand on a beach.

This is all figure work: creating shapes.

I’ve noticed a tendency in many similar images:
You have a model that mak...

Water is life

The Endless Sinner in Mallorca. She has such a stunning fashion model look in these.

It’s a plain sun shot at 1/4000 sec ƒ 3.2 with a 24-70mm zoom. Except for the nipples, these could easi...

Cat People

I published some images of Madam Sophie last month, and like those, especially the sitting image, it is also unconventional and deviates a bit from my regular work.

See, the challenge is when...

Ashleigh Rae

I always love to be the first ever to shoot nudes of a model, and this is one of those rare occasions.
The circumstances were not normal, however:
Ashleigh Rae is a full-time commercial mode...

Exposition

As I’ve explained before, I love to shoot erotic images if and when the model likes to do so. Luckily, Wiana Model is one of the models usually keen when we work together, and this set is no excu...

The Asylum

This is a little “catch-up” series with Carillon Doll shot at an abandoned church in Milan.

It’s all-natural light. 

I loved working with her, but I will never recommend her...
