End of January 2018, sunny day but cold on a rooftop in the center of Milan.
We stayed out for brief moments and got back in the warm apartment.
I wonder if anybody managed to see this naked lady from the nearby skyscrapers...

This is the look I want on my models, not seductive, but proud, confident; neutral yet full of meaning.
Martina is surely a great interpreter, so it's always worth experimenting, but this is always the look that melts my heart.

I usually prefer free hair, but this shooting with K. was an exception, and here she was adjusting the ponytail.
I went to walk here on Saturday.
After the road from one side collapsed, this location is even less used by trekkers, particularly during the week.
So I guess I will go back with other girls and have some more nude pictures on this deserted trail.
When the light is good, I love to use the Nikkor 80/200 2.8.
The great bokeh makes Sofia stand out nicely.
You realise how old you are when you take nude pictures of a girl that used to go to school with your younger nephew.
This was my third shooting from when the project started, in January 2017.
Not sure why, but you're all very fond of Sadie.
Well here is another shooting from our private set in Milan.
Strange things happened with Miele on this day.
For the project Survivor she had to dress with a chain and defend herself from unidentified menaces coming from the world outside.
Back then I was still working mainly in BW.

Many pictures were censored by the model on this shooting... strangely this was not, so you may enjoy the forbidden fruit.
Thanks for your support also from me!
Some of the payments did go through all right but others seems to struggle, Patreon is having some issues this month but let's hope they will be fixed by today!
Let me know through a mail (bramleyapple@yahoo.com) if you would like me to send you an HD image file, you can choose from...
New building site, same old Puffa.
Hope to shoot a lot in this location as soon as the temperatures rises in Spring, but who should I take?
Today I'm back in Brescia with Martina for e new project, hopefully I will tell you more tomorrow and possibly show you a picture from the shooting.
Remarkable what this girl can do with a single eye, she's capable of mesmerising any given man.
I was still experimenting with the 90mm Summicron lens, and this is one of the pictures that convinced me how good this lens performs when you nail the focus @ 2.8.

Some shootings remain deeply sculpted in your mind: a happy model, the right location and pleasing results are surely good ingredients for the recipe.
But you also need some magic...
This is definitely one of the 2 shooting that scores high in this category.

Time for a new face, meet Anna from yesterday shooting in Milan.
The hotel room vas pretty dark and small, but warm (also in color) and comfortable: you can't grumble considering outside was cold and snowing...
Toward the end of 2016 workshop near Brescia with Stelladiplastica things got out of hand, only few photographer were still shooting and Bramley Apple was one of them.
Here she was mimicking using a handgun.
This first "nude" shooting (after 15 years of standby) was fundamental to convince me (and my wife) that it wa...

This was the third shooting in the Monte Canto building site, I had the time to clean and organise the space, so Sofia had an easier life compared to Miele and Puffa, a part from the temperature, being already October...
For this reason we shot the last pictures in the sunlight coming from the window; it was not ideal for ...
Not only these alternative models are required to be beautiful and fully undressed, they're also required to have some acting skills.
And Sadie scores very high on that respect.
6 m. of chain, that's the only dress she is wearing.
I should go back to this type of bounding, it's uncomfortable but less risky than ropes and look good in pictures.
You still have to select the right model, though, C. worked fine in this attire.

Martina outdoor works very well, but avoid doing this kind of poses at the beginning of a shooting!
Her beautiful bottom was marked by the tree bark, red from scratches, and stained by the resin.
Still pretty, but huge work to retouch in post production.

Close encounters with Puffa during our very first shooting in December 2016.
We got along well right from the beginning and still going strong nowadays!
She leaned against the radiator for so long, it left a huge red mark on her bottom for the following pictures.
First shooting on this abandoned building site was with Miele, and she really filled the empty rooms with personality.
I have used this space twice more in 2017 and not at all in 2018.
Unsure if I will use it in 2019, because they appear to have resumed working and because I have found better places since.
But I have...
This was an early shooting I made in my apartment, just to prove it is not the right location for nude work.
The jacket is a very old American military item that's been in our family since WW2 times, and really makes the arrest story more plausible.

Would be impressive to see a girl like Chiara walking around Milan in her natural state, and maybe in the 70ies it would have been possible, but somehow the World is moving backwards and we are about to reach the dark ages of censorship.
(I'm also trying to enclose the HD file as an attachment to the post, just an exper...

The sun was blinding on the 15th of August, but Puffa soldiered on!
At least she managed to increase her beautiful tan.
Short notice before this shooting with Katya, but I was ready for her.
The hotel room was cramped and pitch black, but my new Profoto A1 managed to light up the atmosphere.
You rarely see the model wearing something on Bramley Apple's pictures, but in this first shooting with Martina I was learning to trust her better judgment and went for it.
The right background makes the difference.
Hairy girls are not so popular today, but I remember having a great response on Tumblr on this matter.
I kind of like some hair, from time to time, I find it a natural way to hide the sensitive parts of the body.
Also, a shaved young woman tends to be perceived like an under...
Should I have used an additional light in this scarcely luminous location?
Do you prefer to preserve the atmosphere of the place or to maximise the quality of pictures?
Lately I brought a Profoto A1 flashlights and I'm doing some experiments, hope not to mess ...
