Backside illuminated.

The sensor in my last camera, the Leica SL2s, is a backside illuminated technology unit, and should be particularly capable in low light situations, where you are compelled to use high ISO settings.
So in the last shooting with Cristiana I did a torture test for the Leica and tried this picture at 12,500 ISO, with no noise reduction applied.
Also the SL2s can't do miracles, and the quality of the picture is not impressive, but it is still way better than what I could get with the old Le...

Great tattoos.

The body of Stella is a work of art, for the way she finely tuned every muscle, and for the way she decorated her skin with high quality tattoos.
You need good taste to ink your body so much, and Stelladiplastica must have it.
I think she has the best and most coherent collection of tattoos than any other model I worked with.

Rangefinder magic.

In the third shooting with Martina we changed the location near Como to go in Brescia.
This morning spent with Martina was one of my favourite shooting with her, and we managed to collect some pretty wonderful pictures.
This was taken with the trusty Leica M240 with the 50mm Summicron lens.
I know my style has evolved since these good old days, but give me this girl and this camera in any moment, and I'm going to make something very special!
We 3 are a good and trained team.

Rock your couch.

This couch is of a very boring color, but it is useful to make Slim's tattooed skin stand out even more.
And with a model like her on it, the whole house is going to rock and roll.
I'm glad I had the chance to work with her, it was because of a last minute  substitution, but I landed on my feet this time!

Exercise your fantasy.

Let's meet Cristiana in the same bathroom we left her in the last picture, but this time she is in the tub.
Looks small for two, but worth trying.
Let's get the hot water running.

Handcuffs.

Linda was looking in the mirror how the handcuffs looked on her, I guess not many girls would know, because they are not likely to wear them in an ordinary life.
It is all right if the model is looking away, for me, because it is like if she is alone in the house, with no photographer around...
Also, the model looking in a mirror is more likely to drop her defenses and show her true character.

You never forget the first time.

A Friend of mine was looking through my Archives some days ago, and he was astonished about how many amazing shot I managed to make during the first shooting with Martina in February 2018.
And I think he is right, notwithstanding she had a fever, we really managed to make a great job.
This is just one of the numerous corner of the huge house we shoot in, not sure I've ever published other pictures of Martina on this stairs ever before, surely not this one... possibly you are missing so ...

Do you recognise this model?

I worked with many girls in this location in Merate, so that might not be very helpful.
I wonder if someone will be able to get her name right just from her back...
I will not put the hashtag, for the moment, otherwise it is going to be too easy! 😉

By the way, I'm trying to fix a new shooting with Manya in February, let's hope we can make it work for both of us, so she might get back on Patreon also...

Through the bathroom mirror.

I'm not a great fan of shooting through mirrors, because this damages the quality of my special lenses but, in this case, it didn't make any apparent damage, and the quality of the picture is still very good indeed.

On the other hand, using a mirror is useful in expanding the room behind the model.
Maybe I have to reconsider my dislike for mirrors.

Don't lose faith.

January is still a busy month at work, so I've not booked my monthly shooting, maybe I will have to catch up later on during the year...

Casually posing.

When I ask Martina to "climb on a chair", she really understand what I'm asking from her.
Shadows and fur are creating a natural censorship that should make this picture suitable for Patreon.

Martina is capable of making any position plausible, casual, possibly even natural, however it was far fetched, and this is a great weapon for my kind of photographic project.
Fortunately she also looks gorgeous in every position as well, particularly in this dark haired look (check out the B...

Owning it.

There are few things more cute than a young lady owning a bed.
The confidence Cristiana is showing on this bed is moving, particularly because she is completely naked.
It is not just sexuality, but it is more about the freedom and the joy of feeling comfortable in our bodies.
Maybe Cristiana is not one of the hottest model in my Archives, but she definitely is one of the most charming and enthusiast when nude, and her presence in this photo is setting the sheets on fire!

Pro model.

Demi knows her body, and she must think there is one defect about it.
Somehow her relaxed nipples tend to disappear inside the areola.
After many years of modelling she developed this technique to stimulate the nipples and keep them erect and visible at all times, by pinch them between photos.

There is nothing sexual about it, it is just a technical way to make the breast look more appealing, but from the outside it appears like a lovely nervous tic.
Demi is the only model I kn...

Desk girl.

I was searching for a photo of Martina that was a little different from usual, and it is not as easy as you can think...
I went back to the shooting made in the swinger club and decided to show you one we made in the entrance.
I'm sure Martina could be a hell of a welcome in such a place, what could you expect to find inside the club if she is at the front desk?
It was a very dark place, but I didn't want to spoil the atmosphere with my flash, somehow it does work better this way, as...

Coming through the door.

I have been posting numerous pictures of Linda, because i know you are enjoying her and because she is a Patreon exclusive model, for the moment.
So this is the only place to see her, all the other pictures are hidden in my Archives.

No problem.

This is a picture compliant to Patreon's rules from my first shooting with Cristiana.
Her right hand is just in the right position to make it so.
Difficult life this is... and I have to tone my work all on these stupid and hypocrite standards, all my other photos will have to stay confined in my Archives forever.

This first shooting was the more varied for photographic occasions inside the same apartment, and it is always better to extract the most out of a single session with a m...

Getting old.

Just finished retouching Bianca's shooting and I'm now storing it away in Bramley Apple Archives.
Now the final pictures are safe and sound in multiple locations, like the raw files.

I'm back working on the 2 shootings still lingering in Lightroom, Cristiana's 4th time and Stella.

About the shooting with Cristiana, I've noticed a high percentage of out of focus images, that I'm ditching, obviously.
I think this is down to my eyesight, that is not perfect any more.

The Leica look.

The maintenance on my Patreon profile required a long time and delayed my retouching work on Bianca's shooting and all the others I'm left with.
It also kept me away from the last 2 shootings, both made with the new Leica SL2s, still stuck in Lightroom!
I really want (and need) to go back working on them to understand how this new camera works!

Now Bianca's shooting is finally finished and safely uploaded in my Archives, I wanted to pick this picture from my very last shooting, ju...

New year resolutions.

My first resolution for 2022 is to start working again with Martina as soon as possible!

This is how I imagine her waiting for me before our next shooting.

Ideally I would budget 3/4 shootings with her during next year, so stay tuned!

After all my work contract has been renewed until March, and I reckon they can get by without me if I take a day off from time to time...

This picture was shot with a radioactive ☢️ Leica Summitar 50mm lens from 1950.

Happy Nude Year.

I can think of no better way to express my good wishes for 2022 than giving you more of what you like so much, and I've chosen Bianca to deliver my message.

She has been arguably the best new entry of 2021, and her beautiful eyes and smile managed to distract us from a difficult year.

Let's see what special surprises the future is preparing for us... I will keep my eyes wide open 👀

Ready for the party?

Cristiana is checking if we have enough Champagne for New Year's Eve.
I hope I will be back in possession of my page to give you proper greetings.

Martina looking at my updated page.

I have been working for days on my Patreon page, trying to clean it up for the new standards.
I went through every single post, but now I think we should live safe.
Unlike last time, I have left a placeholder graphic for the cancelled pictures to keep the post alive and maintain all your precious feedbacks.
This took even more of my time, but it was worth the effort.

Fortunately I’m on Holiday now and I had this time, but I wanted to use it to work on the last shootings… View Post

Merry Christmas.

You may not believe in Santa coming down from the chimney to bring the gifts, but you should still keep an eye on it because all women, especially models, particularly when they are nude, will be found near the flame to feel warmer.

Last girl of 2021.

This proved to be the last shooting for 2021.
Not a bad one, if you ask me, and you're going to see more of it!
As soon as I finish addressing all the issues of my Patreon profile, I will get back to work on my pictures.
I may lose some time setting up properly this page, but I will never loose the determination to keep on building up my Archive of memorable nudes.
And experimenting with the mighty Leica SL2-s, here with a Summicron-M lens.

I need more space - part 2 of 2

I like to use longer focal length because they provide something like an abstract elevation image of a building. But to take in all of my subject, especially a full figure, I need plenty of space between me and the model.
And, if I want a proper separation of my subject from the blurred background, I also need plenty of space between the model and whatever is behind her.

The basement of the location in Merate represents an ideal situation.
Yesterday I showed you a photo where Lind...
