Turkey days

Hi friends, writing this message from Istanbul airport while waiting for my second flight to Antalya. Of course, I have my camera on me and my hardrive as well as I’m planning to do self portraits and edit my other art work to share with you. I hope everyone is well and you also do have some travel plans coming up!

Sunday is a bath day

Love is in the denim

Today I had a pleasure of capturing one of my favourite couples - Erin and Kiko. I can’t wait to finish at least pne client project to start editing these

Before magic happens. Series of raw unedited files

Here it is- untouched, not colored, nothing. As you can see, the original color was green, I distorted many pictures for an elevated look. What do you think of the before and after?

Pre editing magic

Posting unedited and not included shots into the series for Insiser Self-Portraits Tier. This is a showcase of how much editing, color grading and distortions are important to elevate the picture

Greek Goddess. Brooklyn Stoops

Sharing my latest edits with gorgeous Eri in greek goddess motives. Originally shot on green, per usual I decided to change the color to not withdraw the attention from gold and skin.

Posting raws and unfiltered shots today 8:30pm NYC time for Inside Self-Portraits tier for those who's interested in seeing how it looks untouched and what shots I didn't pick!

Loading the series

In a few hours a full series will be posted. I’m having a technical issue of loading the full size from the phone and have to get home to post from the computer 📸

Sheets and Lace. Full series

Sometimes a white flat sheet fixed between the floor lamp and bed is all you need. And a mirror, of course, a mirror

Art of Body

Working on a massive skin series. 50 Shots done editing. Who knows how many left. Definitely need a coffee table book with these ones! In frame - Lexi

Testing Pearls

Test shots for the pearl lingerie that I couldn't resist getting after shooting Eri. Next week I am aiming on shooting this look in a very fine art manner, lots of details and potential prints.

Dresser. Preview to series

Pearls and Waves

I started off editing with the original colors when realized i see a mermaid. I see a mermaid in hr pearls, ocean wave around her skin - I couldn't help it. Eri was very responsive and understood the poses and the mood we are going for. This is only the first part, I will share soon the second part, a bit more revealing and sensual yet still majestic and ethereal

Fragmental. Full series

Promi. Prometheus. Prometeo.

Those that did not make it

Here are a few slightly color graded but NO retouched frames from our first look. These were pre selected but never made it to my final editing

Temple

I met Eri a year ago when she recognised me at one event, came up to me and we exchanged information. I proposed her to be my muse but she had to go. A year later, she messaged me that she is coming to New York and I knew right away how I saw her - a Greek goddess on green this was our first test look. Best shots are yet to come.

Would you like to see unedited shots from this set? I have many frames that I didn’t include but more than happy to share! Let me know

Backstage

Before I got my hands on camera and we shot these for the lingerie brand, first, we did our test shots on the phone and I just realised I’ve never shared them. With Erin O’Hara
