Elle's Silks

Elle's a talented and strong aerialist, and she was in the studio the other day with her new champagne silks.  Do check it out if powerful bodies are your thing.  ^_^

Some Lyra with Sam!

Exclusive for you awesome supporters, here's a small gallery of images from a recent lyra shoot with Sam!  

Please enjoy.  ^_^

Athena Preview

I've got a new gallery coming up with what I think is my best rope photography to date.  You awesome people will get to see it first.

Hopefully I'll have it done today.  I've been stuck in an editing swamp for the last three weeks, and gosh it feels good to edit some photos for ME for a change!  

Ask me anything!

I'm working on some text for the Pantheon Project, and I don't really know what anyone might want to know about me or my work.. So. Curious about anything? Interview me! 👍 Message me or reply to this post with your questions, and I'll answer. 😊

When Ideas Strike

Here's a quick look at the creative process.  While scanning through a few hundred photos, I spotted one that made me go 'hmmm...'

Blog Post: Working the Files

Someone recently asked me how I manage my files.  Some months, like this one, the numbers are insane.  

So I wrote about it: how they're stored, backed up, and sorted from thousands to dozens before they're finally finished.

Thanks for your support!  <3

The Editing Process

A quick update with a little detail about the decisions made during editing.  

Thanks for being awesome.  <3

Hiking with Amanda

New blog post up, featuring Amanda and the bush, and a sunset which caught us by surprise, for some reason.

Pantheon Project: The Gallery

Wherein I discuss how fucking awful it is to try and design webpages.  In this case, the gallery for the Pantheon Project.

Your feedback desired!

I've mentioned it before but it's still true: I don't get a lot of feedback from you fine Patreon supporters.  Occasionally I get a like, and a few times a year I get a comment, but people keep signing up and people keep leaving and I don't know why they do either thing.  I mean, I love you all and I'm sorry y...

Upcoming Shoots!

Greetings everyone!  Thanks so much for being here.  Your support means a lot to me.  As always, let me know if you like what I'm doing (or not).

There are three shoots in the next two weeks that I hope you might look forward to.  

Tomorrow I'm shooting with Kat again.  She's in the Pantheon Pro...

Some Sunset for Your Weekend

This was a tough shoot, but I think we managed to make it work.  ^_^

What do you guys think?

April Update!

It's been three whole months of the year and I've had...  five photoshoots so far.  It's been miserable and I'm itching to get going again.

I hope you've all been checking the blog, that's where all your hard-earned and very much appreciated money is going.  I just posted another almost entirely Patreon...

Have you been checking in?

The new blog is seeing plenty of regular updates with lots of exclusive Patreon content. I hope you guys are enjoying it! Coming up on Monday, 3 posts featuring Alice X. Theres a lot of rope and she hangs from the studio ceiling, but it's probably not what you expect. 😁

New Stuff!

I've just added a new post, featuring Laurynn!  And there's another followup post with even more Laurynn scheduled for tomorrow!  =D

There's also a special bonus for $5+ supporters, a little bit of thanks for the extra support.  I hope you guys on the $2 tier aren't upset by this.  Let me know! 

The New Content

So far only about half of you amazing people have checked out the Patron-only content on the new website.  I'm not sure what that means, TBH.

For those of you that have checked, have you noticed it updates every few days with new stuff?  How does it look?  Is it worth your money?  Let me know!  <3 2018-02-01 23:14:30 +0000 UTC View Post

The New Schedule!

 OK!  I've got a plan.  For the foreseeable future I'm going to have a new post every Monday at 8am (Australia time).  I'll also be posting at random times throughout the week with a mix of content.

Here's a taste of the next four posts, the first of which will drop in about 12 hours!

A few changes!

I've changed a few things in the rewards.  Overall I think the change is positive, but...

The magazine is going to come out a lot less often.  I don't think there's any point when I will be delivering more photos more often via the blog.  

There's no more snapchat rewards.  I'm not going to boot anyon...

The New Stuff

OK!  The new blog is coming along nicely.  This is where I plan to put most of the new content, which means the magazine is going to receive a little less attention for the time being.

I do hope that you amazing people will be happy with more stuff mo...

The New NFGphoto Blog

Woo!  Patreon's got a thing now, and I'm using it!

There's a new blog fired up on NFGphoto.com, and I'll be updating that more frequently, to deliver amazing images more often than the monthly magazine format allows.  In addition, I'll be able to add more meaty words to these posts, since I won't be so c...

A brief slowdown...

A few days ago I visited the Emergency department at the local hospital.  I was in agony, and they quickly diagnosed kidney stones.  As anyone who's ever had them before will attest, it's one of the most painful things to ever happen to a human. My prognosis is good but I expect I'll be shooting a little less in Januar...

The Best of 2017 Gallery

I started putting together a Best of 2017 gallery, and if you want to have a sneak peak, please do.  ^_^

Finally figured it out.

I've been trying to figure out a certain kind of process for a long time, and yesterday I finally cracked it.

I'd seen things like this before, where dark areas maintained a rich, saturated colour, but lighter areas became pale and didn't have a lot of colour.  

The image on the left is the original.  After app...

The December Magazine!

It's done!  

This has been a hell of a year.  Your support has meant a lot to me, and I hope you enjoy these 44 pages of awesomeness.

Update!

Hallo you new folks!  Very happy to have you on board.  Never hesitate to let me know if you're not getting your money's worth. ^_^

The December mag is nearly done!  Got a few more girls to add, and it's gonna be a massive issue.  More than 40 pages!  Not much text, but a heap of tinsel.  =)  ...

December Magazine

It's almost here!  I finished most of it today, I've got one more shoot on Wednesday that I suspect will be worth waiting for.  

This may be the best one ever, unless you've got a phobia of athletes and xmas lights...  ;)

The Magazine: Special Edition

There's a bonus edition of the magazine this month.  The Silhouette Project, from earlier this year, is complete.  

Click the link, have a look.  As always, your thoughts are welcomed.  ^_^

Amanda: Before & After

Amanda was in the studio a few days ago, hoping to create some images she could use in her bodybuilding pursuits.  The images on top are the raw proofs, with the final edits underneath.

I used four lights for the shoot, three large grids and a white shoot-through umbrella.  The image on the right is what happens when...

Update: 50 new photos!

For my beautiful patrons first, the Photostream - just updated with ~50 new photos from November.  A lot of these will be in the next Magazine.  ^_^
