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 floor only, the last 2 stories, so nobody was bothering us or looking at us, not even from near balconies.
The burst of flashlight...
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 even when we do what we want, we are still enslaved by our passions, so we're never truly free.
What really matters is to choose ...
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 connect with the roots of my project, the naive approach I was relying upon in the beginning.
Of course, I'm talking of the last 8 ...
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 on my public social media feed later today, because it is similar to the one of Dottir from yesterday, crouching on the bed, but ...
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 shooting later today, a back view on my regular social media feed, open to everyone; and a crouched position on a chair with raise...

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 about this nordic beauty.
In this picture I'm proud of having kept the contribution from the flashlight somewhat on the tast...

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 complexion that I fell in love with.
Blue eyes and blond hair are both very attractive to me, have always been, I can't help it.

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 surfer, though she is actually Danish, but she lives in Spain and loves to lie in the sun for hours.
Her tanned skin was someth...
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.

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 rubbish!

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 cooker hood.
We also had to mind our steps, because the floor was slippery from humidity, and she was feeling cold even with the ho...
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.
And this is particularly true for Cristiana when we met for the first time.
In this photo you can't see a single tattoo to i...
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 its results.
Nowadays you can buy this Nikon 200mm f4 AI-S for very little money, but it is capable of impressive results, and...
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 how to deal with female anatomy.
She is a great sport and enjoyed this game, I also proposed to make a short video, but she wa...
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 safety, but she saw only one man during the 2,5 hours, and he was trying to hide from us, rather than the other way round...

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 much success with my followers, albeit I'm still happy for having tried!
Today I'm shooting with Ania in the abandoned factory...

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 not want to take care and protect such a delightful creature as Sophy, especially when she is looking at us like this.
If you...

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 replaceable, but I still tend to use the Leica SL2-S which is one of my most expensive cameras.
When one of my colleagues was t...
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 Sugar last year, I checked it yesterday in the evening and it is still accessible, and I will probably take with me also my wife...
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.
Last time, Hilary refused to go on the balcony, she told me she only shoots indoor, but this time I managed to have fun shooti...

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 exhausting day in Milano...

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

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 her muscles, she bestow upon us one of her unforgettable glances.

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 details on the nipple in focus, and how darker it is compared with the rest of the body.

This mansion was crumbling down, but it had some walkways that were made viable.

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, and I was referring to it as out of context because there was no cat to be seen in this apartment!
