Bramley Apple

High up.

The Da Vinci Hotel in Milan has balconies looking out on both sides, this was looking towards north and out of Milan, that's why you can see some green.
The balconies are just on 7th and 8th flo...

Unbreakable bond.

We are never truly free, because we need to work to survive, we have families, and so we can afford to maintain only a very little amount of time for ourselves, to do what we really want!
And ev...

Rooted.

Of late, my pictures are becoming too god, I mean too refined, less spontaneous.
I don't feel it as a treason of my principles, just an evolution of my style.
But I also feel the need to conn...

Friday is dedicated to Hilary.

The new Mac broke the spell on Hilary's shooting and I finally managed to select 3 photos for my various necessities.
This is the one I chose for my Patreon Community, but check out also the one...

Full disclosure.

Another spectacular photo from my last shooting with Martina, less than a Month ago, and here you can see her ultimate body evolution in all of its glory!

I will post 2 more photos from this ...

Light bender.

This is the third and last photo of the new model, at least for the moment.
I reckon you have made the acquaintance with Dottir in a proper way by now, so leave a comment to sum up your opinion ...

Hotel room studio.

Here is the second picture of Dottir, from our first ever shooting on Sunday the 21st.
She is another great addition to the Bramley Apple project, with a perfectly tuned body and a nordic comple...

NEW #BRAMLEYAPPLE BLOSSOMING ON THE 🍏 TREE…

No teaser this time, we're going to start directly with a romantic portrait of this young lady, shot with the Leica Summicron-M 90mm on the Leica SL2-S.

Dottir reminds me about an Australian ...

Walking on leather.

I love how Stella is managing the sofa, like if she is walking normally.
This confidence in every situation is peculiar to great models, and she surely is one.

If you want to learn more ab...

Keep it natural.

Modern society has declared war to hair of any kind, nowadays women have also creams that can get rid of any kind of hair everywhere on the body.
I hope Martina never gets in contact with such r...

Humidity levels.

I have one more photo ready from this last shooting with Sugar, this was shot inside the kitchen, and she had to move slightly to her left, because of the sheer condensation trickling down the cook...

Simple ladies.

I'm lucky most of my models are pretty straightforward and easygoing modern girls, some have lots of tattoos, or piercings, but they tend to reflect how the younger generations of girls look like.<...

200 mm away from her.

I love to show you unusual aspects of my models, like the funny aspect of Professor Ania from yesterday, but today we get back to serious photography with a cheap, portable, but monumental lens for...

Larger than life.

Meet professor Ania, that is going to explain the main functions of a female body.
We liked playing with this huge graffito because it is very rude, but well executed, so Ania used it to explain...

Ania number 5.

I did manage to get my shooting with Ania also in 2024, at least one!
Trains were problematic, so I went near Milano to get her, but everything else went well.
My wife was watching over our s...

Live trying.

I love to experiment, especially when I am shooting in desolate places with plenty of inspirations.
With £lisandra we tried a horror movie take upon the concept of nudity, and it didn't have mu...

Take care.

Poses don't always need to be spectacular and majestic, sometimes the most humble poses are the most effective, the girls are looking vulnerable, but more enchanting for this reason.
Who would n...

Back to the Lumix S1.

My main concern is for the safety of the models, as I was saying yesterday, but another concern is for the equipment.
In risky situations I tend to prefer less expensive lenses, the ones easily ...

Great news!!!

Yesterday I was contacted by Ania about our shooting on July, I admit I was resigned by now, but we scheduled one for next Sunday, the 14th.
We are going to use the abandoned factory I used with...

On the balcony.

Strangely enough, I booked a 70€ upgraded room in the Dayuse hotel (from 10:00 to 18:00), but they gave me the basic 60€ room instead, because I had express the preference for having a balcony....

Second try with Elfa and first with Lightroom Classic.

Well, last night I had more problems with the new version of Lightroom, and I wasted plenty of time...
At least I managed to extract my first 2 images with the updated software and on the new Ma...

NEW #BRAMLEYAPPLE BLOSSOMING ON THE 🍏 TREE…

Meet Elfa, the brand new model from yesterday's shooting in Milano.
Can an eye and a nipple make you fall in love for her?
Maybe not, but it was all I was able to do last night, after an exha...

Out of the ordinary.

Normal things are usually the most boring.
Maybe cheap, functional, even reliable, but boring nevertheless.
Whilst unusual things are always challenging and frequently extreme.

The Cat...

Flexible.

As all of you in comments, I'm lost for positive words to describe Martina, so I have to state the obvious, that she is flexible, harmonious and elegant in every juncture.
And while she flexes h...

Waiting for her.

Friday is dedicated to Sophy.
I will post the second photo on my regular social media feed, and the third photo on my DA Subscription section.

All photos are from our second shooting toget...

Sunny skin landscape.

How the skin of Sugar plays with the sun light is something to behold, but she can still get burned and peal like any other human being, check the tip of her shoulder in this photo.
I love the d...

Mac transition.

In this period I'm updating my 2018 Mac Book Pro, because has developed some serious issues, with the battery (already the second installed), and the general state of fatigue...
But the upgrade ...

Safe walkways.

This mansion was crumbling down, but it had some walkways that were made viable.
I was sad not being able to go also last Saturday with Sugar, but these abandoned places are living a delicate ba...

Pitchfork.

Usually the pitchfork is associated with the devil, albeit the one he has is with 3 point and not 4, but it is difficult to think about such a nice young lady as Anneth as a demon...

Unusual ...

The missing cat.

Hope you can see enough of it in this portrait of Martina, but the special homeware I was referring to on yesterday post, was a cat climbing frame, a complex furry vertical playground for feline, ...
