It seems like finally I'm starting to introduce more closeup/detail shots in my workflow. I really love them, many times even more than the full body ones.
This one I wanted to feel very intimate. To make this a photograph where the breasts of the model draw all the attention without being "in your face".
PS. Yes, I know that with breasts like hers they'll always get all the attention no matter what I do. Still, you get what I mean.
Happy Sunday!
These are the same rocks from the pevious photograph I posted here (click here to see it), but with a different girl. I believe this photoshoot to be one of the pretiest from the series.
All the best

From earlier this morning. Yes, this photograph was shot today, earlier this morning. Also it's the first image I snapped. The very first! It's rare for me to fall for the very first image but there it is, I really love this one.
This photoshoot was the fastest I've ever done for #thebodyportrait. I believe our total shooting time was about 3-5 minutes. Why? It's autumn and we were up on the mountain at 7 o'clock and at 1°C temperature. Think about how cold the rocks themselves are. T...
Hello to you all! :)
This is a very early view of a recent photoshoot. I'm still in the process of chosing the images I believe work best. Looking at the images I'm finding myself drawn to ones with reflections and I believe this is a subject I'll most likely explore further in my photoshoots to come. It seems like reflections add that extra something to photographs.
I haven't talked about lighting in a while so let's correct that immediately! Natural light here. What you see is...
Looking at this image now I see what an amazing opportuniy I've missed! I went for an absolutely mundane approach. There's actually so much I could've done with this concept. I think the main problem is that I had no concept while photographing this. My thought process was just "Naked girl in the Shower" which is so...
It's only when I chose to share this image here that I got the idea of "Time Freeze". Now that I have an idea and a concept in my head I'll definetelly revisit this the...
Happy Sunday to you all!
I really like how this photograph of Denaya turned out. Also, I spoke with her just a few days ago discussing our next shoot! I'm happy to say It'll take place sometime during October.
All the best

I'm kicking off September and autumn with a more artistic approach! This time of the year is about that warm, mooyd sun light and lots of beautiful shadow. Just look into the details of this one. I really like how reavealing it is but at the same time not really.
How do you find this type of images - do you like photographs with that level of subtle nudity or do you like a more flashy approach?
A photograph from what I believe is the most revealing photoshoot I've ever doner.
Complete set is coming next month!

I'm using this image to sum up this last month - August. It was all over the place! I've travelled and done more work than ever before. I've shown but very little of it. It may be because I am a little overwheled by all of the above.
I'm also writing this to thank all of you for your support this month! Especially the ones who are stayin' with me for quite some time now, you guys are the best!!! All of your support is, as always, much appreciated! Thank you!
And finally, I ...
Beautiful shapes and silky smooth skin! A treat to work with! This woman's amazing! I'm thinking about arranging another photoshoot with her.
We've agreed not to show her face so like in the first set I wanted to use a lot of shadow to elevate her mystery. I'm using soft light coming from the back, that's all to it.
PS. First set with this amazing woman is here.
All the best

We were actually doing just wet hair when for the fun of it we decided to go for the whole body. Looking at the images now I'm thinking I'm going to do a whole-body-wet-look photovideo shoot! I believe it's going to produce amazing results!
Also, I'm finding applying something reflective to the skin such as simple water or a shimmer product, maybe some kind of oil, does a great job of minimizing skin imperfections. What I'm trying to say is if you want to reduce the need for retouch do...
I’m sorry I haven’t been as active lately but I am working on something special! Here’s a sneak peak.
More coming soooon!

Just posted 13 images from this set in the Premium tier where you can also compare between the retouched and not-retouched version of this image.

Hey guys! :)
Sometimes things don't go as planned. Just the other day I had scheduled two photoshoots, both for #thebodyportrait. I wanted to do something bedroom themed so I went to IKEA and bought a few things, arranged and created a decor and everything. Sadly, both girls cancelled... I guess it happens! No worries, decor is ready and waiting! Hope I'll do a shoot soon and share results with you.
Anyway, don't tell anyone, but I'm thinking about desiging a print calendar for...
It's funny how our perception changes with time. I took this image back in February '21. Like always, starting curating the images from the shoot a few days after. At the time I'd marked this one for deletion! It is just now I applied one of my newer presets to it and am blown away! This image is now easily one of my favorite images of Denaya. Period.
There're 2 takeaways for me here:
1. Don't be so quick to delete images, give them time to settle as well as your vision
2. Im...
Cheers to another one (month)! I'm just sharing this image to thank you all for your support and to make an announcement!
First of all - to the ones that are leaving - thank you, guys, hope you've enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again here on social media! To the ones who to continue their support - thank you, thank you so much! You are much appreciated!
About the announcement! August should ...

I did another one outside! I have to say it's harder to execute but I feel there's quite the potential for beautiful images out there! Also, a lot more can happen! For example, about 30 seconds after we finished shooting and the model had just got dressed a group of 25+ tourists came out of nowhere! If that's not lucky!
If you're in my Premium tier you'll get to see footage of that and the photoshoot, plus the complete set, they're coming soon!
PS. I'm doing a few photosho...
Hey there! :)
It's been more than half an year since I've decided to share my work here. I've never expected I'll be enoying it this much! Much of it has to do with your support and feedback, it's a tonne of help for me for which I'm exmtremely greatful to you all!
Keeping the above in mind, I want to ask your opinion/feedback once more! I'm using these set of images as a way of summarizing the type of photographs I share here on Patreon and I want to know which of them you're h...
In contrast with the previous two setup I'm using soft light here. I believe there're two main takeouts here:
1. I have a flash aimed at the model but I'm blocking the direct beam using a big card close to a wall. Essentially, the model is lit by the light bouncing of the wall. I'm doing this in order the create a very thin, tall strip of soft light (kinda like a DIY strip softbox).
2. The way I give more dimension to her body by introducing deeper ...

This is arguably my favorite set with Denaya! What about you guys, which set of her you like the best?
P.S. Lighting here is a mix of natural and flash light - there's a rectangle softbox on camera right to enhance the window light.
No retouch here, just natural work.
PS. I really love the first shot what about you?
All the best

Hello guys, and here's the second setup we shot! Hard light again, only this time I'm going for lighter shadows.
1. Again, light hasn't moved, it's still 4-5 meters away from the model and again is coming through a doorway. This time I'm using the doorway to create a shape of light on the wall behind her. I'm also using big pieace of foamboard to further shape the light. You'll see I'm changing it a few times throughout.
2. In order to lift the shadows I'm using a big white piec...
