This shooting on Milano rooftops is one of the most memorable with Martina, and it has been stored on Bramley Apple Archives like many others.
Still collecting the documents from the other models, let's see how many are going to confirm the model releases they signed at the time of our shooting on the new Patreon template....
Finally Patreon has delivered the document to confirm the consent from the models, only one day in advance on the deadline, not a professional behaviour because starting from today we should have in hand the new documents from the models and we had no time to collect them...
I've started contacting the models, but in the f...
Always try to get yourself at the same height of your subject, possibly even lower, preferably choose a pretty subject like Cristiana and ask her to get naked.
It is not difficult to make a nice photo, you just need the right ingredients...

I explored this abandoned building site with Puffa, Martina and Dovile, between 2018 and 2019.
Each girl infused her own personal interpretation of the location, and that is why I love to change models.
If you wish to make some comparisons, all three sets have been uploaded in Archives.

I was so happy when I finally could afford to stop using the Sony A7!
I hated every minute using my first mirrorless camera even if I was getting good pictures out of it, because it felt like a toy and just didn't click (funny to say that about a camera...) albeit I admire how it is still soldiering on making the backstage...
This was the shooting when I shot also some videos of Martina, not only the usual backstages, but also some slo-mo.
The two type of videos are connected and were made at the same time, so Martina is visible from different point of view, a general view and a closer look...
All videos and (more importantly) the picture...

Photos are what I do best, the only thing I'm really interested in.
But I had to learn how to do videos, not professional videos, but good enough backstage videos, to give people a further insight about my work.
But I've also been making some experiments (with other models), like the slo-mo videos you have never seen, y...
I have no idea what you like, I mean, each of you has his own tastes...
I know you like nude ladies, but everyone has his faves.
Today I have decided to show you Shinrin.
Let's say I made 750 photos of her (between color and BW, no, I'm not sure which you prefer), and I have to choose only one for my post!
Not an ...
One reason to reduce my logo was to avoid too many similarities to other brands that use an Apple.
As an added benefit, taking away the leaf from my apple should interfere less with the feet of the models!
This picture comes from my second shooting with Martina, in 2017.
The whole shooting is stored in my archives...
I like to use meaningful objects to create intellectual contrasts in my pictures, handcuffs are the first item that comes to mind, but also a rosary is a strong statement and cannot be overlooked, even if you are not a religious person.
The idea is not to offend anyone, but to provoke strong reactions in our minds, differe...
You've probably seen the short version sample slo-mo video concerning Bianca on my other social media. Her hair was perfect in the clip, with a well defined unruly lock of hair in front of her face, in this photo we tried to replicate that magic, but it doesn't look as good...
I find it charming anyway, something ...

My last shooting with Martina was in April 2021.
I was contacted a few days ago by her, to see if I wanted to do our 15th shooting, but I can't at the moment, unless it is on Saturday afternoon or Sunday, so nothing doing.
I will build up some holidays in this new job, and I will start my regular schedule again, in t...

I'm enjoying looking back into my archives to upload all the pictures on Flickr.
Stefani was the last shooting of 2017, in December.
The day was cold, but the tiny apartment was well heated, with sun coming in from the window... and I wouldn't have felt cold anyway, with this creature in the same room.
Fortunately I ...

My old Leica M managed to show us so many aspects of this beautiful girl (and many other) in an intimate and unobtrusive way, like in this example from our first shooting.
The plain view of the 50mm Summicron is intimate but unpretending at the same time, no special effects, just straightforward pictures.
I love my l...

I took part to an online event with Patreon’s policy team last week, to discuss the new requirements for +18 contents.
Things could get more complicated in the future due to the rules imposed by Mastercard, and some of the older models may disappear from my timeline due to the impossibility to gain all the documents r...

Another request from you Patrons!
Ok, it is not the hottest photo of Shinrin yet, but it is pretty explicit.
This photo was made with the bokeh monster Pentacon 50mm f1.8 M42 mount.
I was unsure about the results, but wanted to take some frames of Shinrin during our shooting, just for a brief moment.
Her face ...
Some of you have requested also a photo of Sophia.
I have chosen one that shows her athletic body in a very pleasing way.
This was our second shooting, the one during which I have used the Bowie knife as a prop but, as you can see in this image, it was not the only knife in the house.
The friend that lent his apartme...
Sadie was another of your requests, and this is her hottest outfit from our first shooting.
I had to share her with many other photographer during the 2017 model-sharing, but managed to get some good pictures.
This picture was shot with the Nikon D810 and the Nikon 80-200mm f2.8 AF-D Nikkor ED, and it highlights th...
I confess this was not one of your requests, why would you ask to see more pictures of Martina as you know you’re going to get them anyway?
And here she is, relaxed and naturally nude, always capable of showing us more than we could have hoped for, her body is unable to hide anything, explicit even without trying, and th...
Another request from you Patrons, apparently you have enjoyed this new entry, Linda.
I was stuck with using always my two favourite lenses, 58mm and 100mm, but for the last shooting I decided to stir things up and use some tasty Nikon AI-s lenses.
This is the cheap (in cost, not in quality) Nikon 85mm f2 AI-s, one...

In my mind Chiara represents the present incarnation of the Pin-up girls.
It is a style I don't particularly encourage in my models, but this girl is on autopilot most of the time.
Nevertheless she is beautiful and always successful, also among my Patron, as she had the highest numbers of requests!
So this is t...

Martina is a star, find a stage, a good light, and she is going to shine.
This has been one of my favourite locations.
I was also glad to see Martina after a long lockdown, maybe this contributed to my concentration during the shooting.
This was a specific request by a Patron.
Remember that you can ask for photos of a specific model, and I will fish one out for you.
This is also going to help me to remind about models that I tend to forget...
Do you have some preferences?
Write them down in comments or send me a private message.
It is not a matter of difference in color, or the background out of focus, or the uneven illumination, Puffa is breaking away from the bricks for her sheer beauty.
This is contrast in play, in this case it is just the contrast between a rough wall and a soft skin full of tattoos.
Our friend Roberto in Brescia likes music...
LPs and CDs make for a pleasant background to a well lit Martina.
I think we should let her choose the music, though.
I love the idea of a though camera with no compromises, the extreme craftsmanship involved in its design and production, I especially approve the choice of doing without the hideous tilting rear screen, because I want my cameras to be a solid piece of equipment, capable of standing the most severe treatments!

Do you like tan lines?
From an artistic point of view, I would say a uniform tan is better to convey the purity of the human form.
But the tan lines are sexy because we are aware of looking at something that is usually hidden, restricted, forbidden.
Nobody was allowed to see these parts of the body before, not eve...
