Getting skin tones right was tricky with that Maldives suntan!

Fashion Matejki

From the 16th November 4:15am.

Z6, 50mm lens, hand held LED light.

We did a series of explicit fashion images which I really wish I could show as I do think they are great images with the extreme contrast between the raw sexuality and the fashion vibe but there doesn't seem to be a fo...

Inside a photoshoot

I shot a heap of images of Jan-Karel Kok (@jankarelkok) shooting Aurora at Emma's (@riel.life) place in Lopik, Netherlands. This is one of my...

Zanetta Studios

Shot where we stayed in a small village called Mikri Viglas. I used a wine glass for the flare/blur seen in the shots and nearly ended up with it in my back (video).

Nikon Z6, 50mm lens - some things never change.

Next shot wasn't part of that set, but we shot this other set straight ...

Super 🔥 set shot in Mikri Vigla on the balcony of the beach front place we stayed at. Coming in a few days...

Mazury Lakes Pt1

A set I'm proud of. Shot in some of the most amazing light I've seen. Just on dusk, timed so there would be soft flare for back lit shots.

Eric - Henry Head Sydney

If you know my work then you know I enjoy shooting men also, and transgender, and whoever, whatever. Eric is an experienced life model and nuclear physicist. Never heard of that combination? neither have I.

Godspeed - video preview

This has been on the editing table for a year now 🥵 but soon I'll finish it!

Filmed in Scheveningen exactly one year ago in a tiny BNB by the beach. It was a big night and we slept in past the check out time. Unfortunately, for the owner, he decided to enter the apartment while we were s...

Models that worked

These models just worked. Saying "worked" sounds quite impersonal, but you know what I mean.

I thought I'd make a post about some collaborations which for me have been outstanding in some way. The main thing I felt when I worked with these people was that I felt totally relaxed and at home....

Models that worked (preview)

This post talks about several models who I formed great connections with that influenced the images we made. How to make those kind of connections and the nature of those connections are some of the topics I discuss. Coming tomorrow 12th November 8am CET.

Personally, I think we both nailed it on this night. There's more images coming...

Maldives analog - around the villa

Flashing back to the Maldives in 2021. These were shot with the Pentax 67 onto Tri-x I think. I used a Sekonic meter. The film suffered some damage from the tropical heat and also some powerful x-ray scanning at the airport but they look fine to me.

There's more analog shots, and digital, c...

Maldives analog - around the villa (preview)

Coming tomorrow is a set shot in the Maldives on MF film with the Pentax 67. Nudes, daily life and stuff.

Palac Wiejce [Set 3 of 3]

I did love the interior of this place of course but it was the banks of the river that really inspired me.

We spent one evening there, a short walk from the palace. Just before and after sunset, winter light, very dim but beautiful quiet light. I took some portraits here that stand out in m...

Andrea - Henry Head, Sydney

I collaborated with Andrea many times and got some wonderful pictures with her. These were shot at a favourite location which isn't far from my other favourite location! I'll be visiting the spot next month 😜

Most of these are analog, shot with the Pentax or Nikon F100, and Portra film. ...

Return to Oz

On the 28th of November we arrive back in Australia after having been in Europe for a little over 4 years.

Everyone says “Wow, you must be looking forward to going ‘home’”,  but home is a concept and there is no longer anywhere in the world that I actually can call home. I’ve...

MIX - JANUARY 2023

Mostly from two trips to Spain in January, for holidays but also to check out the location for our photo event in June 2024. There's only one spot left BTW!

There's some randoms thrown in this gallery because I could....

A walk amidst the heath with Sienna Hayes

I published a set of images from this shoot previously - here.

This set are scans which I found recently that hadn't been edited. I hardly did any edit with these ones, no skin work and minimal colour...
