Sadie on the white wall.

The body of Sadie is quite a show, and a very fine specimen of a mediterranean beauty.

C. on the sofa.

The house was full of dogs and cats, so the smell was not very good and the sofa was full of hair. I spent a lot of time retouching these pictures and was never satisfied about the results. But C. herself looks very good and has now left this house and the dogs to her old boyfriend. She might still have cats, though...

Martina on the leather sofa.

Another picture from our first shooting together, in for a good start!

We are really going along well together now, but looking back, I must say we created an immediate bond.
I still wasn't sure she would have accepted the explicit style we were doing, but I shouldn't have worried, as we've had the chance to learn la...

Stefani towering on the bed.

I remember this kind and gigantic girl with great affection, she was 180 cm height and generously build, always smiling and friendly.

The apartment was very small, so also in this case I worked mainly with the Leica M and the Summicron 50mm lens.

Yesterday I've posted an interesting detail on the Secret Flickr alb...

Puffa on the rusty tubes.

There was water under Puffa, a small artificial lake in an abandoned quarry.
This is a great place to take pictures, lots and no people around.
Only two problems: it's out of hand (not easy to take the models there), and it is full of mosquitoes when the temperature is good for staying naked.

Martina on the stairs.

To see Martina like this, you know the stairs are pointing the way up.

New video on the Summicron-M 50mm.

This week’s lens on my YouTube channel is the Leica Summicron-M 50mm, and my personal technique to brake in a new iconic lens before using it.

Nuovo video sul Summicron-M 50mm.

L’obiettivo di questa settimana sul mio canale YouTube channel è il Leica Summicron-M 50mm.
Scopri la tecnica che ho utilizzato per fare il rodaggio a un obiettivo di valore prima di usarlo. 

Sofia with the bracelets.

I don't care if the girls are wearing jewellery of any kind, I think these two bracelets are not looking bad on her naked body.
What I really don't want them to wear is any kind of fabric, and also Sofia was a good girl in this regard.

K. on the table.

Please remember that all you see on Patreon must remain within Patreon and you don't have to share it anywhere else!
Same goes for the secret Flickr album.
As James Bond would say: "for your eyes only".

Martina smelling flowers.

It won't be an Eden without a proper Eve.
Knowing what was going to happen next, would you still give a proper bite to her juicy apple?

Miele studio session.

One of the few studio workshop I took part in, you don't learn much, and you don't really get the picture that you need.

At least I had the chance to meet with Miele, and we're still in contact now.
She is a fantastic model, but she would not reach the level of nude I need nowadays.
Pity, I really love how she pos...

Is somebody knocking at the door?

Why nobody ever told me about Quora?

Last week I managed to be thrown out from #500px (2.000 followers) and #GuruShots (4.700 followers), so I was searching for new social medias and stumbled upon Quora.
It's very inte...

Distracted Martina.

Now I feel like a university professor in front of a distracted student, should I bring back her focus on the lesson, or should I just enjoy the sight she's providing?

I like how photography helps in expanding indefinitely a single moment, letting loose our wildest imagination, with no before or after to care about.&nbs...

Nikon 105mm f2.5 AI-s

 Find out this week’s lens on my YouTube channel.
Not exactly a last hour news, this lens has been around for some time, but can still teach a thing or two on a full frame mirrorless camera.

Nikon 105mm f2.5 AI-s

 Scopri l’obiettivo di questa settimana sul mio canale YouTube.
Non è una novità, è in giro da parecchio tempo, ma può insegnare qualcosa anche agli obiettivi più moderni, se viene abbinato ad una moderna mirrorless full frame.

Manya on the floor with boots.

This was a goos idea.
I don't want to dress my models in any way, but the boots for Manya are a big part of her life and she is constantly walking all over the World.
She would have looked perfectly comfortable even bare footed, but the boots add some depth to the picture and to her character, and take away any residual...

Coralin in the bathroom.

I don't use bathrooms frequently, but in this case the place was interesting and spacious enough to let me use longer lenses.

Martina approaching a chair.

"You can seat how you want, I'm sure you will not disappoint me!"
As long as you say to Martina which side you want to see, she's going to take care of the rest.

Shinrin on the floor.

I guess Shinrin is tanned even now, living in quarantine.
Her apartment has a little balcony and I'm sure she is passing many hours on it taking as much sun as she possibly can.
Next time we meet, I hope she will show some visible tan lines.
They look particularly well on her skin, and add to the innocent girl role.<...

Viktoriia in a "natural" pose.

I love the pictures were the model just looks casual, sometimes they are just as spectacular as the professionally posed ones.
Obviously, these girls are all more or less professional models, so even the most casual and relaxed pose is a condensation of years of practice and expertise... anyway, well done Viktoriia!

Martina on the Milan terrace.

Also Martina is eager to get back to work, maybe for her it is a matter of money and business more than an artistic need, but it doesn't matter, as long as we start shooting again...

Keeping this girl away from a camera is a crime against humanity.

Demi's silent scream.

If you leave the girls to do their own stuff, you always get some unusual pose.
So I'm trying to learn when is the time to give directions and when is the time to shut up.

Cara from the back.

I have not forgotten about Cara, but I'm still working on this shooting.
I'm lucky to have so much work I have left unattended, so I can keep busy until I can go back to work with the models.
At least this quarantine has helped me catching up with the old work.

New video on YouTube.

Why I always post both the Color and BW of the same picture?
To explain why, I have to take you back nearly 30 years, when I bought my first camera…

Nuovo video su YouTube.

 Perché pubblico sempre la versione in bianco e nero delle mie foto insieme a quella a colori?

Per rispondere, dobbiamo fare un passo indietro di quasi 30 anni, quando ho acquistato la mia prima fotocamera…

Glowing Martina.

Going back to the first shooting I did with Martina, I might change some of the things I did, mostly in postproduction.
Surely I would keep both the model and the Leica M. 

But I will save the time for new adventures and for the recent shootings I have not finished editing yet!

Puffa in the chimney.

Puffa remembers me about a heroine from a horror movie.
Careful Marika, something nasty might fall down from the chimney!

How can I send my telegram if you look at me like that?

Sadie is so sexy I find it uncomfortable to shoot with her, even when she's not showing much.
Some girls really have an animal magnetism.
Good thing she decided to become a model, it would be unnerving to find her working in a post office.

Martina at ease.

This might appear like a normal house, but it is an ugly construction site in Merate.
You wouldn't tell from the ease with which Martina is posing...
Never believe a photo, every picture is a lie, no matter how you try to make it look genuine, you have created a new version of "real".
