Bramley Apple

Unimpeded view.

Work on body.

Pillars of the project.

M.16

Here we are again with our Friday appointment with Martina, from our shooting number 16, the last to reach Archives completed.
4 are still waiting my attention, but I have no hurry to finish them, I will keep them as bottles of Single Malt Scot...

Revealing just to you.

As time passes, I forget all the details about each shooting, and Claudia was from back in August 2022.
But what I can't forget is how shocked I was when I saw her nude for the first time, as she came out from the bathroom, even if I'm not a fa...

Familiar place.

I may be going back in this apartment of my friend photographer in Brescia soon, for a new model, if we reach an agreement...
I will surely like to do it, because I always liked this apartment, not sure if it is the memories linked to this plac...

Doing what I can.

Went to Torino on Saturday, just for tourism, and it was interesting to see it, but I did manage to work on my #BramleyApple project on the Italo train both ways.
On Sunday I was back to work on my pictures, to prepare some posts scheduled on P...

The best tool for the job.

Now that I have some demanding cameras, I should always take an easy body like this Leica SL2-S, to grab some quicker snaps when I need to work fast.
It is not enough to have the best tools in the craft, you also have to select the best ones fo...

Best tattoos.

The extra post on Thursday about Paulinepastel was unintentional, I was supposed to schedule it for Sunday, but sometime I get it wrong and I pushed it out whilst working on it...
No big deal, you just got one more post for free.

So for S...

Monochrom Saturday.

This is the market inside the abandoned asylum, Ex Manicomio di Monbello.
And here Maria and I found this shopping trolley skeleton, burned down to its metal core, probably coming from a modern shopping center nearby, and we decided to play wit...

M.07

Shooting number 7 took place in a swinger club, that offered a lot of interesting corners to work in.
But the specific place is irrelevant, and also the velvet on this couch is just fading away in the background, the only thing that matters in ...

Elegant nude.

Elegance has little to do with what a woman is wearing, and the most elegant models I've come across in my work were more elegant when completely n4ked.
Paulinepastel is a clear example of how elegant a nude body can be, with no effort to seduc...

Embarrassing quality.

The Fujifilm GFX 50S II with "Martin" (the Zeiss T* 1,4/85mm Planar ZF named after the Patron that sponsored part of the purchase) is creating some huge problems!
The files it produces are too big and I have problems sharing the photos with mod...

Industrial design.

I love how this abandoned factory is in stark contrast with the nude body of Ania.
She would look out of place even in a functioning factory like the one where I work every day, I'm used to see my female colleagues wearing neutral accident prev...

Vintage.

This apartment in Milano, inside the Navigli area, was full of vintage stuff, like this old graphic that really excites fond memories in the brains of any Italian, especially with the Totocalcio sticker on the lower right corner of the picture, w...

A dream come true.

Now that I have finished an important shooting, it's time to extract some photos from other sets.
This is the greatest hits MetArt model Hilary C. from April 2024.
This model has a dream body and really knows how to pose...
I hope I can ...

Cold kitchen.

June 2024, with Sugar, in an abandoned restaurant very near where I live.
The kitchen was very cold and with high humidity, that's why Sugar is showing goosebumps.
The flashlight freezes the pose with plenty of details from the 36MP sensor o...

Monochrom Saturday.

After the Advent Calendar, no more pictures of Lia have been released, so it is a good idea to dedicate to her one Monochrom Saturday.
I've not done many photos with the new (to me) Leica M10 Monochrom + Summicron-M 50mm lens during this proble...

M.05.

The thick bush Martina has been sporting for most of her career is a sign of her wild nature and, with time, has managed to convince most detractors of hairy women.
Personally, I always find it charming, especially with her tattoo that appears ...

Brick wall.

The shooting with Maria (first one of the 3 in August) is finally finished!
It is now saved on multiple hard drives for long term storage, and is currently uploading on my Archives.

Ok, so now I have to prove the statement about the quali...

Infinite tonal range.

Barbora in her Italian house with my Leica M10 Monochrom, August 2025.
1 more picture of these 2 beauties together today on my regular social media feed.

This picture was shot with the Fujifilm GFX 50S II + "Martin" (the Zeiss T* 1,4/85mm...

Changing apartments.

May 2021, in Gallarate with Cristiana.
3 photos from this shooting today (check out also my regular social media feed and DA Subscriptions, albeit one has been out on Patreon before), all in the bathroom of the house of a fellow photographer sh...

Upside down portrait.

For Monday I wanted to choose one of the strange photos I do, but I rarely post.
I tend to post always the same kind of frames, the ones I believe are most effective, but I is also important to search for the less obvious, from time to time, an...

Slightly late.

The work on Maria in the Asylum is becoming longer than expected, but I'm really close to finish now.
I'm refining every single photo to get the maximum quality, and I even forgot to schedule the daily photo on Patreon!
But here am I, with a...

Saving up for an interesting 2026.

I am still working on the first August shooting with Maria, in the abandoned asylum, it is taking longer than expected, but the photos are stunning from both of the 2 newest cameras, and I don't want to screw it up in any way!

2025 has been ...

M.10

You all know Martina so well, it is useless to call her by name any more, especially on regular social media.
So, from now on, I'm going to use a code starting with M + . + the number of the shooting (from 01 to 20).

Today's photo, for ex...

Studio light.

Working in a studio with proper lights (even just one like in this case) is a great privilege and a welcome innovation, and yet I would not want all of my pictures to look like the 3 of Ary I've selected for today.
Even if quality and control a...

Never give up!

Not sure how can Sophy be so beautiful, maybe it is us men that are programmed to be attracted by young women, whatever the reason, she is one of the most perfect model I've ever seen.
On the day we met, everything was going wrong, and we were ...

Closing doors.

BentBox is becoming increasingly greedy.
Not only it gets a huge mark up on every sale, but they are also telling me I have already too many boxes and to upload more I have to go pro and pay a monthly fee if I want to add more.
This would me...

Leaning in.

I frequently ask my models to climb upon a table, to get a more favorable point of view and give them a better looking figure.
I learned with time it is always better to stay lower than my models...
It worked also with Cara, and I like the p...
