The chimney.

Martina back in February 2018.
I'm sure this moment was one of the highlights of the shooting for her, because it was a cold day and she had a slight fever at the time.
The fireplace was actu...

Sit properly.

Usual positions are boring so, when you find an athletic model like Slim it is worth experimenting with the chair-kamasutra technique to come up with singular results.
You have to try and keep i...

Playing with Sadie.

Particularly when the model is and does not want to show too much, a good idea is to ask her to do something specific, so she get's out from the mindset of a model and starts to behave like an actr...

Martina or ravioli?

Don't ask me why the old style spotlight used with Martina gave less banding/flickering issues compared to the LED unit used with Cristiana, but it clearly did, particularly on videos!
So I susp...

Please come back Mania!

Manya and I had very little time together, but I'm very happy about the pictures we managed to create.
I hope she will consider coming back to Italy sometimes and shoot again with me.
She mig...

Puffa on a flashing mission.

Now that I think about it, I've never made a backstage video on these "outdoor" shootings yet.
The logistics would be a nightmare, but the occasion never presented from when I started the backst...

Martina and the tree.

If you ever desired to be a tree, this would have been a good reason, pity the branches couldn't embrace this body.

When there is plenty of light, the Leica M240 really shines, even for today...

Smile, please.

You can ask any model to look into the camera, and she is going to do it (for the better or worse...)
But it is harder to ask her to smile or, even worse, to laugh.
For that you need an actre...

How I casted a spell on Puffa.

Puffa confessed to me that this was the first time she ever tried wearing a pair of handcuffs, she felt uncomfortable at the time (2016), but something clicked in her head after this experience. 2021-03-07 08:31:00 +0000 UTC View Post

This is a door you don't want to close.

The web underground community about Martina is very active, and last time I checked they managed to get their dirty hands on some of my contents from various social media.
Fortunately not from P...

Smiling Demi.

Nothing better than a smiling nude girl to make your day better.
And Demi is a great candidate for this role.

Chiara and her red lipstick.

You could look Chiara from any angle and she would still look fabulous.

I usually don't like red lipstick on my models but, if I remember rightly, I forgot to tell her before our shooting. 2021-03-04 08:30:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Martina is growing her hair even longer.

This corner of the room was the kitchen, and If Martina likes to think about what to cook in this position, who am I to complain!
It is a very inspiring position, for me anyway...

During t...

Just kidding.

The shooting with Cristiana went very well and she was gorgeous, notwithstanding the mild hay-fever she was suffering from.

I only had some issues with the new led spotlight that was giving s...

Katya on the bed.

Katya seems to be waiting, for her lover or just for a phone call...
In this shooting, the model managed to simulate a sense of expectation in many frames, and this is a typical example.
I al...

It is always a pleasure to wait for Martina.

I rarely use the bathroom in my shootings, but this is the second photo of Martina in this room in four days.
Of course It's not a great risk to dare with a talented model.
Possibly this bath...

Sadie on the bed powered by Leica.

I'm seriously thinking of using also the Leica M240 for the shooting with Cristiana (scheduled for the 1st of March, just 4 days before last year's date).
I was looking some old photos in the pa...

I'm kind only with pretty models.

From the shooting with Stelladiplastica on last November.

I've started posting on a new social called 100ASA, an interesting formula where you have to curate other people pic...

Martina in the shower.

I stay well away from wide angle lenses for nudes and portraits, but in this cramped bathroom I had to use the Nikon zoom at the widest setting of 28mm.
Maybe I should not fear wide angle lenses...

Cristiana will be back.

Cristiana is coming back to Milano for a few days, and we are scheduling a shooting.
Now I know the girl and I know she is restless and constantly moving, so I will have to adjust my style to th...

N. on the bed.

Got back to this shooting after some time.
I edited some of the pictures, but the skin of this model needs some serious retouching, and this requires time.
I would like to trace back all the ...

Do you like closed eyes?

I usually ask my models to look straight into the lens, sometime I ask them to look away, but I also allow for a few closed eyes poses.
Closed eyes are very popular amongst models, but sometimes...

Menacing Sophia.

We all fantasise about these wild and beautiful creatures, but are we sure life with them would be so perfect?
Sophia for example has a strong and easily flammable character, I suspect she would...

Stefani posing for a solitary group shot.

In school, sport, or any picture of large groups, you ask the shorter people to stay in front and kneel down.
I suspect Stefani was never asked to do that as she is over 180 cm tall, she would p...

Martina near the hot tub.

The swinger club I have visited with Martina had plenty of interesting corners, albeit badly lit.
Ideally people using these places are not interested in powerful lights, but they prefer sensati...

Example 3 - Interesting side artificial lightning.

This third bottom is a guarantee, and we know it pretty well, but let's concentrate on the light...

I think it looks much better than example 1, and it is a good arrangement for the darker lo...

Example 2 - Good side natural lightning.

Yesterday I showed you a great body lighted by a bad light.

Today we are looking at a good side light that gives more volume to another great body shape.
Strong natural light coming from a...

Example 1 - Bad flat artificial lightning.

The back of Viktoriia is a simple shape, yet so charming and evoking.

I wish I had the idea of taking a spotlight with me way back in 2018, before this shooting!
Looking at similar poses f...

Martina's breast is a good thermometer.

During our last shooting, I was having a conversation with Martina about her breast (you will be able to hear it for yourself in original florentine accent in one of the backstage videos yet to be ...

Katya on the bed.

Katya is always graceful whilst posing, and this keeps at bay every concern about the appearance of the pictures.
In these days I'm looking at plenty of photos on Twitter, but you can easily spo...
