Emma
From a recent shoot in the studio. Still trying to explore nude photography. It’s hard not to repeat yourself and you need to be very organised in advance with what you want to do otherwise it’s easy to waste the time you have with a model.
I especially like the effect of the tilt shift lens, it lends a slightly more impressionistic slant to the shots.

Ayla Rose – Nudes
I have been shooting a few more nudes recently on the back of my Shadow project. Ayla Rose is the first professional nude model I’ve photographed. The shoot worked out very well, it made a real difference having a model who was so familiar with the process and who was so professional. I love the opportunity to be completely free with form and light. I’ve always felt more in tune with painters than most photographers and I feel photographing nudes for me is about as close as you can get to painting.
Nude Study I
I shot this quite a while back but never really looked at it. I think I like it more now. I find the majority of nude photography just a bit dull. I like playing with the shapes and turning the body into a bit of abstract form, largely inspired by the amazing nudes done by Irving Penn.
