Only original parts.

Also today we're going to enjoy a profile picture, this time of Ary.
I love the strong body of this model and, the weaknesses that makes her even more attractive, like the goosebumps, the birthmark on the ribs, her tattoo declaring where she is coming from, the stretch marks on her hips...
I decided to make just a slight retouch to this photo to retain intact all the charm of Ary, I basically just removed a scar she confessed she did not like to be shown.

The Sphinx.

The perfect profile of Hilary could launch a ship, or indeed stay sculpted in front of it, breaking the waves, because also the divinity of the oceans cannot resist such beauty!

Dining room.

I've been reckless with Sugar in the abandoned factory of Carvico, without any help for security, and going around exploring everywhere.
Here we were in the cafeteria, inside the office building.
Of course, Sugar was wearing some nasty weapons in the form of those long nails, so danger was limited...

Do you like this passion young ladies have for fake nails?

Karina was a perfect model, complying to everything I was asking, and here she seems to be waiting for more instructions, daring me, as if what I asked since then was just routine for her...

3 sides of the coin.

Today I'm posting 3 pictures of Martina from this shooting in December 2022.
Same corner of the apartment, turning around this beautiful lady, because women don't only have two sides, but infinite degrees of awesomeness all round.

So, if you have the chance, I advise you watch out also for my post on regular social media (side view), and the one on DA Subscriptions (back view).

"Never work with animals or kids!"

This is what they used to say in Hollywood a long time ago, because both are unpredictable...
But in my photos I can dare a little more, at least with animals, obviously.

And sometimes playing with animals pays off, like in this sequence of 2 photos, where Anastasia and the cat appear to be synchronized, looking exactly in the same direction as if they were attached by strings.
If you don't believe me, flick back and forth between the 2 pictures, and look how funny the result is.<...

A gift to myself.

I can't leave this bed with Paulina, and I'm still working on the photos.
Maybe this will be the next shooting to be completed in record time...
I'm happy I have decided to make this thing with Paulina happen, because she is something different from my usual models, and she is truly beautiful in her own way.

This was meant to be an expensive gift to myself, but I'm now pretty sure you're going to enjoy this gift as well, even if only by the way.
After all, we seem to have simil...

Classic portrait.

The technique is the same as yesterday, but the idea is you shouldn't be able to tell it is the cold light of a flash.
The secret is to bounce the flash from a white wall, to diffuse the light and simulate what could come from a window.
Whatever, what really counts is to place Dottir in the best possible light, given the situation, so we can enjoy the finest detail on the model's skin, and the special color of her eyes.

Not sure if I have shared her IG with you before, but I do it...

One of the experiments.

Given the total lack of natural light in the Milan apartment, we had to use exclusively artificial lightning, including a flash.
So I experimented the freezing effect of flash on movement, but with a slow shutter speed (1/125).
The starting position before this sequence of photos is visible today on my regular social media feed.
Whilst tomorrow, on Patreon, I will show you a more traditional portrait of Dottir on this chair.

And speaking about the chair, it is exactly the same ...

NEW SHOOTING WITH DOTTIR!

Now I remember why I hate to shoot in Winter!
In Milano it was a rainy day, I did go with the Caterham Seven because it is the only car I have that can enter B zone.
It was so dark in Milan from 8:00 to 11:00 whilst we were working, I didn't even bother to open the blinds on the windows, I just used the lights in the apartment, my two spotlights, and the flash.
Also Dottir was slightly more miserable, less tanned in her skin and cold.
She drank 3 huge cups of hot tea, and she dres...

What's going on in Milano?

Early wake up for me this morning, because I'm in Milano shooting with Dottir.
That's going on!

This was Mary, back in August 2023, looking out of the window on a wet city.

Also for today was forecasted rain, so I prepared both the Harley Davidson and the Seven with the top on, depending on the weather.
But I hope for dry weather, to use the motorbike, because it is much better for parking and moving around Milan.
The area where the apartment is located is not well covere...

Color only.

In 2017 I was reserving BW treatment only to some of the photos, and this did not qualify for it, not sure why...
I think the image is still deserving to be shown on the Patreon community, where we can do what we want, and we're interested in the more intimate testimony of the girls, previously unreleased, and unplugged in the stardom.

Let's start.

During our first shooting in 2018, I left plenty of leash to Martina, and I realized she was an accomplished model!
During the next 20 shooting and 6 years working together, we learned a lot about each other, and our initial identities blended together.
We might have lost some of the initial spontaneity along the way, but we've gained a reciprocal confidence that was very helpful to get increasingly better pictures.
And, if you still prefer the initial stages of this tuning process, ...

Trading.

I have never enjoyed the colors coming straight from the Nikon D810, so I started messing around with toning light (yellow) and shadows (sepia) in Lightroom since 2018, with the second shooting of Martina.
As I can't find a natural color with this camera, I try to replicate the sensations I was proving in the moment with color grading.
What we get in exchange with this 36MP sensor, nourished with the rich light of a flash, is plenty of detail and sharpness for a larger portion of the bo...

The only opportunity.

This is probably the last chance anybody had to see this mansion still standing.
Surely, even if this portion of the building is still standing, it doesn't look the same any more.
I loved the precarious nature of the place when Ania and I visited, more for the aesthetic nature, rather than for the thrilling sensation of danger, because that danger was totally under control.
One-off opportunity, with the house I mean, with Ania I'm still working, thankfully.

Can you see her?

I posted at least 45 photos of Linda, but not this one, I checked.
There are many variations of this pose, but this is the one that work better.
Linda is still one of the exclusive models (for Patreon and DA subscribers), and will remain like that, probably forever.
But you're lucky, because if you're reading this message, you are part of the community that can see Linda!

Always safe.

It's a long time I have not posted a photo of Cristiana.
Somehow, 3 of her shootings were stuck in the 2013 MacBook Pro, but I was not preoccupied for them because they were situated in a separate SD card, easily accessible even if the computer was not starting any more.
I never risked losing Cristiana, she was safe all the time, and today we can enjoy this photo from November 2021.

Studio creature.

Feb. 2023, Milan studio, the same where I shot Annalisa.
Pro studio light is helpful in showing Ary in all her might.
This woman is very popular among my followers, probably because she has a unique sensuality and a peculiar beauty.

Dressing room effect.

I was listening at a YouTube video in Italian, where two headphones were compared.
One was said to give you the global impression of the music, as if you bought a cheap ticket for the places further away from the stage where the players performs.
While the other headphone was more analytical, conveying every single voice or instrument, as if you were sat in the first row, just below the stage.
The latter is the more appealing headphone for me, and fortunately it is the one I purchas...

NEW #BRAMLEYAPPLE BLOSSOMING ON THE 🍏 TREE…

Meet @paulinepastel, this is her Instagram handle, where she appears as an incredibly refined model, "five times in @playboy".
But the girl I met with is a tiny and sparkling young lady, even more interesting than her glamorous counterpart you can see on Instagram, and I hope my photos will be able to convey this casual version of Paulina, in the typical #BramleyApple style.

As I was in Milano on a Saturday, I also used the opportunity to take a watch for a service to the official bo...

Flash it.

The light from a flashlight, especially with the cup that directs the output in one direction only, gives an interesting view of Elfa, and a great quality image, thanks to the 36MP of the Nikon D810.
When you search for the maximum detail, this old(er) equipment does not disappoint, and with the Profoto remote control on the camera, I really managed to master the off camera flash.

Having said that, I still prefer my traditional approach with wide apertures and natural light but, when...

Out of this world.

The corner of any apartment can be transcend with Martina's gaze and body, she is capable of making you forget about everything else and concentrate only on that animal instinct she is broadcasting.

Sure you want to turn it on?

I think we should be safe, as there is no cable departing from the device, and no electricity in the whole facility, and still it is a legitimate question.
I'm pretty sure Ania will not succede to torn any equipment inside this abandoned factory, on the other hand I know she is tutting on all of us onlookers with her casual nudity.
No other model I've met has ever been so casual with her nudity, except Puffa, possibly she would have been a good match for Ania, but surely my professional...

What's next?

After the retrieved folders, and after having archived Dottir, I have to decide what to tackle next but, in the mean time, I can afford the luxury to extract random pictures from the last shootings I made, and this is the very last, with Anastasia.

Good news!

The shooting of Dottir is finished, and has been stored on my Archives in record time.
Maybe that is down to the new workflow, applied on this shooting for the first time, that consists in doing everything inside Lightroom, from the selection, to the editing of files, until the retouching (I was usually doing in Photoshop later on and on another computer).
Possibly this way of working is quicker, or I was keen to use the brand new MacBook Pro, or I was only drawn toward...

Thanks to the new power supply, I regain control of the 2013 MacBook Pro and the 9 shootings I was retouching that were trapped inside, so it's time to celebrate together, and I can think of no better way than extracting one picture from everyone of these 9 shootings and post it on Patreon, ideally for 9 consecutive days.
