Christmas themed outfits from the shoot I did with Katya earlier in the week.
Have a merry Christmas all, and a happy new year, or just enjoy whatever break you get at this time of year if any. I am already on the road to see family, so probably won't be much posted next week, but I will get back to shooting and posting...

I did two shoots yesterday, a casual/fashion/Christmas themed shoot with Katya and an erotic shoot with Belinda.
I am hitting the road soon and can't take the computer, so expect these to hit the stream early next year.
In the meantime - have a joyous festive season and I look forward to more photography in the ne...

Here are the nude (implied) photos from the snake shoot.
Technical: Nikon D700 with NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8E VR II lens. Lighting from 2 Nikon SB-800 speedlights placed in various places in the set. The snakes did not like to travel, so this was taken on a portable grey backdrop put up in the snake handle...

For the last part of this shoot, Aim & Belinda return to the chaise lounge and get a little intimate.
Technical: Nikon D850, NIKKOE 24-70mm f/2.8E lens. Lighting is from 2 Godox AD200pro flashes - one is in a 60cm softbox off to camera left to provide key light. The other on camera right point...

For the same art nude workshop that I posted about previously. The very back room at Storehouse Studio was tiny, but had a big frosted window, so was really made for natural light portraits.
Technical: Nikon D700, NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G VR II lens, natural light.

So here is the snake shoot I did with Cass back in 2014. I posted one photo from this back in May, and a recent prompt from a couple of Patrons reminded me to post the rest.
This was supposed to be, strictly speaking, an implied nude shoot, but a couple of nipple slips may have happened. Don't tell anybody!

After I was happy with the lighting, I gave the direction, "Belinda, read your book. Aim, try to distract Belinda." Aim is very expressive, and eventually it worked.

I am starting to publish a shoot I did with Rei Jade at a friend's home studio. My friend is a lighting fanatic, so there are some unusual set ups in this shoot, mostly using Nikon speedlights.

Argh Squiddy has been modelling in Melbourne for a while now and was kind of on my radar, but I did not have a chance to shoot her until a workshop last weekend organised by Tall Dark & Art. The shoot was extensive, incorporating lingerie, implied and art nude, but I am starting with these silhouette shots.

Some years ago I ran workshops at a studio in Belgrave (in Melbourne's outer East). It was a great studio to use in a wonderful location, but sadly the owner went in a different direction (maintaining vintage cameras instead of portrait shooting) and the studio is no more.
This set is from a workshop I ran featuring Rei...

My choice of what to publish is heavily influenced by requests, so don't be afraid to drop me a note if there is something you'd like to see.

I have had some more requests for Kiko photos, so here is another set from our first shoot together.
I was reminded of the shoot because Kiko recently posted one of these that I had converted to a pencil sketch for a bit of fun experimentation.

I had a request for more Jos, so I will publish the photos from this workshop.
This was the first time Jos had done a nude workshop (and I think only the second time she had shot nudes, although I think everyone there had shot her before), and this was the first set in the shoot. So we were all a bit nervous about askin...

As I may have mentioned, I have been on the road this week which has lowed down my output. I managed to get to Sydney for the first time in over 2 years!
On a whim I thought I would see if I could get a shoot in on the morning of my trip back to Melbourne - I started off this morning and get home tomorrow. I was very lu...

Lace is an alt model (very alt, some would say). She has an extensive tattoo collection, and every time I see her she seems to have more. Lace has an interesting day job - she is Melbourne's only topless barber!
I have shot Lace a couple of times, don't know why I have not posted these before. This was a studio sho...

From a studio session with Kiko that I shot a few years back, posing in front of a mirror.
Shooting with a mirror in a dark studio like this has its challenges. For a start, you essentially have to light two models. You also have to take into account what will be in the reflection - so there is a black backdrop behind t...

Second half of the workshop I ran shooting Sara.

Earlier in the year I was running workshops in a nearby studio, but had to put it aside for a bit.

Going way back in to the archives - this shoot is almost 10 years old!
This was inspired by a Eurythmics concert I saw in the 80's. Annie Lennox periodically left the stage and would return wearing one less item of clothing, ending up in jeans and bra. Admittedly it was quite a hot night! So I thought I would try to rec...

From a few years ago, this was part 2 of our shoot that day. Part 1 was at Organ Pipes National Park, where I have shot a few times. This section was just after dark in a car park in Melbourne's CBD.
We found a graffiti covered wall on an upper level, and used it as a backdrop. It was a bit cold, but Sass is very brave....
