With all the new models in 2025, we risk to forget about Martina.
Not me, because I'm still working on her photos, from time to time.
To be precise, I've just finished retouching our shooting number 16, from December 2022.
This set was am...
As far as I recall, this is the first red haired woman I have photographed, and the next model also is going to be red haired, albeit the latter model might not have that as her natural color...

I'm making my work increasingly difficult with every new piece of gear I add, and I'm making life difficult also for my models...

Yesterday I was telling you about the arrival of the ZEISS Planar T* 1.4/85 ZF (Nikon mount), lounged in 2009, and how I'm going to call it "Martin", from the name of one kind Patron that decided to sponsor this purchase with a specific stand alon...

When I say I'm honored by the community I've been building up on Patreon, this is what I mean: one of you Patrons was so moved by my passionate research for just the perfect copy of the Zeiss Planar 85mm f1,4, that he spontaneously offered to help...

Sorry to tell you we'll have to do without Ania in 2025.
She finally replied to my message asking her for 2 shootings, just to say she is too deep into studying this year, so she's not available for photo shoots in the following months.

On Tuesday I posted 3 photos of Gracie, and today 3 of Anhelina, the older sister I photographed on the same day, in October 2024.
This is the more iconic, or spiritual if you want, of the 3 photos, made in the same corner of the house where I ...
Today 3 photos of The Endless Sinner, shot with the new GFX medium format camera.
Vicky loves music, but she doesn't know how to play any instrument, not even this Fender guitar, but when we found it in the bedroom, we decided to use it as a pr...
I'm still searching for a good copy of my grail portrait lens, the Contax-Zeiss Planar T* 85mm f1.4, but it is more of a game than a true necessity.
The humble Nikon 85mm f2 AI-s is ore than enough to make justice of a diva like Martina, you ne...
Some photos do not need technical perfection to be effective.
And this was particularly true during the film era, where you didn't shoot thousands of pictures with technical aids to correct your shortcomings.
In this long sequence I made ...

The new GFX medium format camera is not without defects, if you can call them so.
For example, it generates file so big, that some websites refuses to upload them, in particular Instagram and VK.
But I don't care, because the quality of the ...
Dottir is one of the very few models that actually opened the water in the shower for me.
Also Martina did it, during a very hot day in Milano.
I confess this does add a further level of authenticity and intimacy, but the risk is moisture fo...
Back on the nudist beach on the Adda river with Ania.
She is not replying to my messages for planning a couple of shooting this year, so let's enjoy older moments of glory we spent together.
This photo was shot with the Leica M240 and the Su...
I went back to pick some photos from a shooting I made with Martina back in November 2023, the time when she told me about her marriage.
I extracted 3 pictures in total, so I can post them today across all of my platforms, paid and free.

Thinking back to some of my shootings in abandoned places, I admit safety was not the main concern.
I insist for my models to wear closed shoes, and nothing dangerous never really happened, but I guess I've always been lucky.

I always crave the spacious interiors, not necessarily of the scale of abandoned factories, but a big apartment is definitely handy.
And these are clean spaces, where the models can move, and sit without the fear for hygiene, because a female n...
I can't say things went well between Georgia and me, and we had a bit of a quarrel.
Nothing wrong about her appearance, as I can confirm she is a real beauty, but our divergent views about the artistic direction of the set appeared to be incomp...
No teaser this time, and we cut deep into Georgia right from the start.
Don't be fooled by the easy going image she gives away on her IG, she is actually a strong lady indeed, as I will tell you tomorrow...

Also today, I'm supposed to be in Milano, shooting with a new model, my first British model.
I'm not truly sure because, until the last minute, I was not sure she was going to find an apartment to stay in.
Her trip in Europe was a kind of gu...
I'm having troubles with the photos of Maria.
She's been one of the most exciting models to work with, open to experiments and helpful in every way, but my limited capacity to retouch pictures means that most of her charms is lost in translatio...
Nikon D810 + Profoto A1 flash, to maximize the 36MP available on the sensor, and the skin on Klara's body.
This was the first shooting of 2025.
2 more photos of Klara today elsewhere on my social networks.
If you want to learn mo...

The messy background of the wall, is boosting the beauty of Paulina, and the side light provided by the flash is giving more volume to the n4ked body.
There is no need for water running in this shower, dry is better and healthier for my delicat...
After a long pause, it's time to get another photo of Martina, actually I will post 3 today from the same shooting on my various platforms.
After the rollercoaster of 2 new models in one week (4 days, actually), we all need to cool down with a ...
After the introduction of the past two days, it is time to show you The Endless Sinner in her full glory.
After years trying to work with her, it finally happened!
And the apartment she rented for the occasion was perfect, with a great view ...
Apparently, you know your erotic models well and, not only many have recognized the model herself, but have also seen the sneak peek she prepared on IG!
Before showing the serious photos shot with serious gear, today I want to show you one o...

This is not the usual teaser about the new model, it is more a quiz, I want to know how well you know your erotic models... and we can take our time in presenting this new apple.

I have selected over 500 pictures of Elfa to work on from our shooting, including this sequence on the balcony of the hotel, shot on the Nikon D810 with the boost from the Profoto A1 flash, and I love the effect.

First thing Maria asked me was if she needed to smile for the photos, and I told her to smile whenever she felt like it, and so she did, pretty frequently.
A couple of days before our shooting, she messaged me she had a bush between her legs...

Not much of a teaser, this first photo of Maria is the actual first photo I took of her yesterday, with our mutual embarrassment, and a mark of her glasses on the nose.
It was shot on the Fujifilm GFX at ISO 1.600, same ISO as yesterday's photo...
Today I'm shooting in Bergamo and, these are the cameras I have with me:
- Fujifilm GFX, with the Contax-Zeiss Planar T* 100mm f2 and the Leica Summicron-M 50mm.
- Leica SL2-S, with the Nikon 85mm f2 AI-s and the VoigtlƤnder Nokton 58mm f1....
