#4 – Valerie Nude Dark Shower

December 28, 2009 Dark Shower

One of the lighting set ups I’ve been working with this year with a shower in the studio on a dark background. I shot it as a nude set with Valerie Whitaker and this shot just jumped out at me. Matter of fact it hadn’t even been retouched when I started doing this list. But [...]

I really like this image. The directness of it appeals to me and her stance makes her look great.
But this one like all the ones I’ve shown you aren’t going in the Zivity series. Why? Let’s leave that as an exercise.
What is wrong with this image?

Truth is you may not be able to tell [...]

A lot of Zivity stuff is strip tease, so I decided I’d try reversing that. This is the starting point of our shoot.

This week’s model if probably the one that’s been the most nude on this blog. We recently did a shoot intended for Zivity and this is one of the images I’m not planning on using.
Well I wasn’t…
The model was recently mugged in NYC and I have to say getting rid of the bruises on her [...]

Creepy Dani Nude

I’d been looking at a website that had contests based on themes and the only theme I thought I had any hope of doing was creepy.
What does that say about me?
For some reason, I think masks are creepy. So I put one on Dani and the had her reach out for me this way.

OK, there is an aspect of line here. The curve of her back and buttocks. But there is a glamour feel, with the oil on her skin and the warm color of the light.
So which is it? Glamour or Fine Art

It’s black and white so it must be fine art right? Really it is fine art because of the long line of her body. The curve of her back and belly. The tonality of her skin.

This is an example of a glamour nude of model Dani Lupree. Makeup by Kristin Daniell. To me this almost isn’t a nude, because I don’t consider butt crack to be nudity. But the breast peaking around her arm makes it so.

I Love This Image

September 28, 2009 Fine Art

Not just from a fine art nude point of view. It is a great nude, doing exactly what a nude should do. The tones are awesome. The line pure and clean.
I love this image from a design point of view. I dropped the Photographer & Model logo on to it and the curve of her [...]

I Shoot Nudes. No Apologies Series.

Thumbnail image for I Shoot Nudes. No Apologies Series.

Some would blame it on my upbringing, but I think it is based on my moral code. I’m uncomfortable shooting nudes. Deciding when nudity is art and when it is porn is something I think all people struggle with. It is obvious there are both cases, but where to draw the line is the issue.
I’m [...]
